Lord
What have
We come to
We don’t talk
We don’t speak
We don’t disagree
For fear
Of reprisal
I wasn’t
Made for this
Following You
Is hard
But it’s
The only
Thing in
My life
That makes sense
Friends have
Called me
An influencer
And right now
That label feels
Uncomfortable
I’m not plugging
Popular culture
I just want
To glorify You
And pray
That humanity
Returns
To decency
I’m glad
You have me
This world
Has me clutching
The cross
Hoping against hope
For a return
To a world
Where common sense
Needn’t be
Explained
Or justified
A very good poem. I like it so much.

ReplyDeleteYou are an influencer for Jesus! ✝️
DeleteCommon sense returning to our nation . . . That is my prayer, too! Blessings!
ReplyDeleteThat word is just another "fad" that is going around in society. I'm so glad that you know the importance of sharing the word of God, and not listening to all the noise. When you said, "I’m not plugging popular culture I just want to Glorify You"....that says it all. Thank you for being you. Have a blessed Monday and October week.

I do feel a little like being tempted, but like our Pastor says, we are to follow Jesus, not man and his will.
ReplyDeleteIt does seem like people have lost common sense, and like you, I long for a society that exhibits decency and care for each other.
