A World of Hate

creation commenced--Cain and Abel jealousy two brothers competing stalwartly hatred junction off- ramp taken blazing violence still cosmic warfare rages intense unceasingly assembled, standing as vengeance persists born protesting our fallen world obstinately strangely culture perceives tolerance ignorantly a Creator that keeps our friendship unconditionally no half-way house choice in His sovereignty “Don’t be surprised my brothers if the world hates you” 1 JOHN 3:13 © October 2013—Kim van Breda
