The world in darkness

THE WORLD IN DARKNESS

Darkness has overcome the world
Uncertainty rules our minds
It seems the goodness in our hearts vanished
Selfishness thrive in abundance
Hasn't the Lord assured us all the time?
That all of these will come to pass
There will be tribulations at first
But in the end the chosen ones will stand?
Why be afraid then?
Why do we let our fear and panic reign?
Just be ready and steadfast
There is nothing we can do but trust
It is only through our faith that salvation is attained
We should know that, if we remained... loyal Only to Him
And followed His path.

I reckon sins got hold of the best of most of us
I know I have been a sinner for sometime
But I know, too, that I changed..I am sure He knows
How I kept my promise of not sinning again, and again..
And so with earnest in my mind, heart and in my soul
I deeply, regrettably wanting to carry the cross
He bore for all of us
And if in the end, I am still one of the Lost..I will still hope,
I will be found...because I always believed...
He is the Only Way and the Life...
Our Lord Jesus..

Amen.

on seeking such an idea
I accept there are such as you
and indeed not few
but amongst them be assured
is not me.
I cannot see a concept
such as a third entity
who I should adore
my nose instead wrinkles
and indeed I abhore
the very idea
So silly it seems to me.

Wow Fargo, that's a very good sentiment you express there.

My respects. handshake

Having said that your belief is as good as you'd want it to be. And so is mine.

Fargo, abhor is in your mindset towards others' beliefs that are not yours. These are just thoughts that don't harm because everyone is free to believe in their own beliefs.
There are 450 to 500 million positive atheists and agnostics worldwide (7% of the world's population).

Thanks for that straight forward response my dear SM.
Yes, we just can't go around expressing dislikes towards believers just because they're not in your group.

Acceptance and tolerance is the key.

Thanks again dear lady. bouquet

I know how sensitive people can become when a belief or religion is written and or spoken, however, like you said, the percentage of believers far outweigh those who don't. cheers
