Array ( [sid] => 21076 [catid] => 1 [aid] => Mick [title] => God ! are you there ? [time] => 2003-07-27 09:05:00 [hometext] => This poem is an angry poem in which I criticize God for not doing anything to make this world of ours a better place to live.It seems that he has just sold us all to the devil.
[bodytext] => I searched for you in vain,
up and down,here and there,
my heart cramped with doom and fear,
my soul sick with fatique and tear,
I ask this question,not many would dare,
God ! are you really existing up there ?.

The rich get richer intoxicated with wealth,
the poor dies embittered,broken in health,
the corrupt gets bolder by the hour,
the honest gets trampled like a flower,
the successful reaps more and more success,
the defeated gets cornered in a dark recess,
greed has become motto of the day,
humanity sadly has lost it's way,
tyranny has become the latest fashion,
with the innocent slaughtered out of action.

A thought springs in me,crude like an anvil,
have you sold us all out to the devil ?.

Wonderful "Masterpiece!"
God hasn't sold us to the Devil, but he has allowed us to rule ourselves. That rule is soon to end. When you pray for his Kingdom, you are praying for His Government or a Theocracy (Rule by God!) He will know when to intervene........and it is going to be really soon! So hang on there dear friend.....this story has a hopefull and gorgeous end!
Hope eternal with love,
loving critters

A good write,, but this is not God's time just yet..it won't be long..it is called the freedom of choice.. and right now mankind has made some very bad choices..take heart God's time is coming.
