Human decency titers high on a narrow withering strand of good will
National well-wishers watch as politicians are grabbing empty air over increasing divides of civil unrest
The lack of social balance cringes, frightened America faces gasping at how quickly love is going out of sight
The once common view “love that binds, is a love that lasts” is a lost bridge over a gap no one can close
Overt levels of disharmony open cracks wider far below once shared love
Love thy neighbor signs swing on broken hinges at the crossing of a storm called hate
Scattered Bible tracts read “Hope Now” lay flat under shoes going nowhere
There, there and there are pieces of eternity sailing in a breeze
The tract reads “Jesus is the ticket to heaven.”
Twisted torn gambling receipts gather like rolling dust beneath God’s voucher of love
Romans 3:16-17 “Destruction and misery are in their ways; 17 And the way of peace they have not known.”
The Savior Jesus came to save.
