Their motives are clear as they seek to deny,
A life of peace may seem their ultimate cry.
Yet, the havoc they wreak makes it perfectly clear,
They are on a mission for all to hear.
Their egos won't let them see one another,
As True Sisters and Brothers with the same Father of falter.
Their inbreed ambitions brought up from birth,
Keeps breeding hatred all over the earth.
They care not the carnage of violence in the past,
Nor do they want it to ever rest and desist at last.
For their God lives in a violent realm,
Breeding contentions with them at the helm.
Peace will not come from 911 attacks,
Nor will it come from attacking back.
As PEACE in the TRUE God's realm,
Lives in forgiveness with Him at the helm.
He teaches His people to take life in strife,
To Him as their Maker unto death in this life.
For the road to recovery is narrow indeed,
Yet worth the walk for true PEACE in His Seeds.

For this line ~ "He teaches His people to take life in strife," ~ Rose T.
Did you mean "stride" and not "strife"?
Very nice ~
Blessings ~
Your Friend,
Rene
What the Bible says about "strife" ~
"And Abram said unto Lot, Let there be no strife, I pray thee, between me and thee, and between my herdmen and they herdmen; for we be brethren." ~ GENESIS 13:8 (KJV)
"Thou shalt hide them in the secret of thy presence from the pride of man: thou shalt keep them secretly in a pavilion from the strife of tongues." ~ PSALMS 31:20 (KJV
"A wrathful man stirreth up strife: but he that is slow to anger appeaseth strife." ~ PROVERBS 15:18 (KJV)
"A froward man soweth strife: and a whisperer separateth chief friends." ~ PROVERBS 16:28 (KJV)
"It is an honor for a man to cease from strife:" ~ PROVERBS 20:3 (KJV)
"Where no wood is, there the fire goeth out: so where there is no talebearer, the strife ceaseth." ~ PROVERBS 26:20 (KJV)
"For where envying and strife is, there is confusion and every evil work." ~ JAMES 3:16 (KJV)
[There are many more Scriptures on "Strife" Rose if you'd like them, let me know].
I really think you meant "stride", which means to take long steps as in passing over an obstruction. It is akin to a step in progress, an advance. It means to achieve a steady and effective pace...
To attain a maximum level of competence, i.e., "take in stride" -- To cope with calmly and without a break in routine.
I hope your having a blessed weekend Rose. You may have misunderstood what you were taught, or somehow just transposed the word from "stride" to "strife" in error.
I hope this was helpful to you ~
Blessings & Joy,
Rene
Sounds like that is exactly where we are in the scheme of things and by NO mistake. "scheme 1. A systematic plan of action!
Here is where God IS separating the wheat from the chaff.
Blessings & Joy,
to you too Rene'!
"As True Sisters and Brothers with the same Father of falter." ~ Rose T.
"Falter" means to be "unsteady" in purpose or action, as from loss of courage or confidence; to waver. It also means to speak hesitatingly, to stammer -- to move ineptly or haltingly; to stumble. To operate or perform unsteadily or with loss of effectiveness ~ As in the engine faltered.
I'm sure you didn't mean to use that word, because WE do not serve a Father of falter, but a Father of POWER.
Another word may fit in that spot better.
When will we ALL truly come back to God and live as HE and His Son taught us?
"WE do not serve a Father of falter, but a Father of POWER."
That IS a choice and God gave us the means to make it. We can choose LIFE or we can choose to keep faultering in man's realm; CREATED by God. ~Thus the Father of OUR falters.~ Life is NOT one neat little book no matter what one believes, ~LIFE is a Choice.~
So who knows which is 'the one' and what if they are all the true gods and what if none of them are and it is all myth created in the past during those early times when Man was trying to see through his ignorance and making feeble attempts at making sense of what was happening around him and not knowing if what he was believing was anything like the truth because he started to think that worshipping the Sun was the thing and that if he did that the Sun would get up in the morning and bless him with crops which were growing and animals he could hunt and eat? What if?
What if those who insist on their ways and beliefs are convinced or trying to convince others they are right in order to feel more justified and it all turns out they are worshipping nothing more than fresh air?
What if we are all wrong? What if just belief is not enough for some and they want to take care of the world around them rather than believe there is some bigger intelligence which turns out to be nothing more than some using the human model and tendency to have natural heirarchy to suggest that the being they want to exist is.......
....nonsense?
Because of my experiences on the subjective, and because that is mostly subjective ... I had to "up-grade" my concept of God to GOD ... (GOD, ultimate truth ... God and god(s), less and lesser truths).
When people see their Heart as representative of Love ... do they think of it as a Physical Love Organ ... or as one of the things most essential to life because it pups essential blood throughout the entire body ... (?) The bigger picture relates to the Central Balance point connecting the whole body is a more subjective AND objective relationship ... not simply an objective physical one.
The ancients did worship God as many do now only they did it with their depictions in the rocks and their awesome forms they left behind. One thing the right wing extremists couldn't do was to annihilate them so they spoke for God and said God no longer liked their high places of worship. They knew they could not take out ALL the writings in the rocks and even though they passed down writings saying others worshiped the sun, in many cases that is NOT the truth, most ancients did NOT worship the sun. That was their depiction of the power of God along with many other pictorial forms. They evils may appear as a pillar of light, but their transgressions are just now be revealed with the information age. They are scuring about to hid their secrets, but the true God of all won't be stopped. This is where we are at in the turning of the seasons of the human race.
We as a human race have allowed wars to transpire to try to rid the earth of others beliefs, but, the TRUE GOD knows and sees and is making His justifications now. So wheather you believe in one thing or another means nothing. Follow your heart and conscience and you will be exactly where you need to be. The body is a wonderful gift and we have been given so much more than parts. Just Listen to it!
It may surprise some that it is quite feasible for a person to live a wholesome, inoffensive and credible life without reading a bible or going to church, or other religious place, or any other so-called requirements of particular sects, groups or realms of beliefs.
Peace.
And by the way, been there done the college thing too, just watch the slants as everyone DOES have their OWN take on life. INFORMATION is the
key!
PEACE to you too my friend!
