Give Your Life

27 November 07 8:15 am Why do people love violence and evil? Why is revenge considered sweet? A child unknowing and innocent is laid at the saviors feet. Its little body abused and beaten its little bones are broken packed in a box and in a dumpster thrown its little life gone its body left cold Its name forgotten and its story left untold. The man that fell beside the road dead from alcohol abuse. Lost every thing he had and everything there was to loose as people either ignored him there or pointed at him and laughed His life disappearing as quickly on they passed. A young mother who’s left with her child and the dad is nowhere about and shamed parents who selfishly threw them out. Cost of living growing higher and her with no skills turns to the streets for work so her pimp can get his pills. A family torn apart by mistakes and broken hearts, cries out to our heavenly father As lawyers push them ever harder Mourn oh hearts ache and cry but don’t ever again question why, when you yourself can help someone in any little way. With just a little of your time or a little of your pay. Share what you have, use the grace you’ve been given only you can give the life you’ve been given. Those that love their life shall lose it and those that give their life shall gain it. Life on Purpose Live it before you lose it! ©2009
