HANGING ON TO THE GOOD
HANGING ON TO THE GOOD
There is a LOT
Of NEGATIVITY
In this world right now=
Especially now
In the AGE
Of the Corona virus
It is easy to be REJECTED=
And people fly off the handle
And RAGE at you
HANGING ON TO THE GOOD!
“SEEK GOOD and not evil
That you may live
Then truly will the Lord-
The God of hosts
BE with you-
As you claim” Amos 5:14
I know the GOOD LORD
Loves me
I know the good Lord
LOVES all of us
I do NOT BLAME
The bad=and the NEGATIVITY
Of this world
On him
I admire people
Who are COMMITTED
To doing their best=
That are CONTINUING
To see the GOOD=
Even when life
Has dealt them
A BAD HAND
HANGING on to the GOOD!
Keep doing good
In this world
“And God said'
'Let there be light'=
And there was light
God saw that
The light was GOOD
And he separated
The light from the darkness” Genesis 1:3-4
“Taste and see
That the Lord
IS GOOD=
Blessed is the one
Who takes refuge in him” Psalm 34:8
“Then you will win favor
And a GOOD NAME
In the sight of God
And man” Proverbs 3:4
It is a CHALLENGE
To stay GOOD-
To keep doing
POSITIVE things=in today's world
People disappoint me=
I might disappoint others=though
I never want to
Life TURNS on a dime=
I become surprised
I become dismayed
I become shaken
But I continue
To try=and HANG ON
To the good
“Then Jesus asked them=
'Which is lawful
On the SABBATH?
To do GOOD or
To do evil
To save life or kill?'
But they remained silent” Mark 3:4
We must continue
To SEEK THE GOOD
Even if we are
SURROUNDED by darkness
I BELIEVE=that no matter what
GOD IS HERE
In this moment=He is here
Keep HANGING ON
TO THE GOOD!
In Jesus' name=and in the name of our EVER POSITIVE FATHER!
