What was that he said Go see who is at the door Are what is the score Maybe he hates being poor Are, did you hear that wind roar Surely didn't say what about my chores Probably just said going to the store He's getting harder to understand than before Don't know what he says anymore Just watch, don't let him fall on the floor Maybe we should get him to write more Can't be in this chaos every day till four. Just having a little fun in this But a reminder to go back To the true living source and word To seek God's love for you Mankind hears many different things

We all need to be careful who we listen to. First hand is always better. Walt Whitman put it this way, " Re-examine all you have been told ... Dismiss what insults your soul." The Spirit within each of us will help us understand what God is saying to us. Thanks for sharing, Stephen. A poet friend in Texas, Bill

- So true, Stephan ... "Mankind hears many different things" ... Faith is about listening ... the communication between God and man ... I agree with Tom ...our world is all about time - hugs

For many years I listened and learned from mankind , how hopeless and miserable this can lead one, which is what we are seeing all around us, when I opened God's word for myself it was like a light came on : ). Hugs

When God speaks many have selective hearing too busy to listen to what he is saying to us. Judgement day will come one day and we should be ready. The warnings are there for all to see. Enjoy your week ahead Stephen. Tom

Indeed, Tom and as well we can't allow this world to teach us about living for God, word of mouth from mankind gets changed all the time, just encouraging one to seek God's word for themselves, May God bless, comfort, guide and fill you with His peace, love, spirit and joy in abundance: )
