WHERE WE ARE

The focus is rightfully here
Many things we must do
A better community is what we want
Halloween pumpkins think that too
Most are carved smiling
A few with a concerned frown
There are a lot of nasties
Occurring outside this town

We have a right to do our thing
Most everyone would agree
So much more outside our reach, still
Problems from which we cannot flee
They are universal
Show on every continent
Collectively holding our breath
Waiting for another disastrous event

We all have our interests
Set our own human goals
Forgetting many times in the process
The worlds impoverished souls

We think about our focus
What would be best for us?
Where do we put our faith?
Where do we put our trust?

What are we to do?
Should we look for Him in every occurrence?
Hoping for what we cannot see, while
Waiting with patient endurance

That is one way of looking
He expects more you see
Solve the problems in front of us
The road to our victory

A MEDITATION

MEDITATION October 17, 2021
The truth be known, 
and how often is that?
There are many about us 
filled with doubt.
Hope and faith meanwhile 
drive other into deep belief.  
The unknown is troublesome
But Jesus spoke to us 
and showed us 
The way to His Kingdom.  
He performed miracles to 
lay proof to His remarks.
What more do we need?  Amen
