A Different Alphabet Soup

Actions are said to speak louder than words,
Because a word without spirit is lifeless,
Containing no fuel or faith to ignite.

Diseases, for example, strive without cures.
Evils persist where there are none combatants
For withstanding their assaults of wickedness.

God created mankind with the ability to choose
Heaven through faith in Christ or eternal separation.
Indifference to the opportunity of choice is not an option.

Justice may well be delayed, but there's final judgment by God.
Kindness as a one act event is great, but being always kind is best.
Love is an action word that can never be reduced to mere words.

Magnanimous is to be over the top, above, and far beyond the norm.
Nation State is a 'God Idea' and cannot be healthy if He's not desired.
Open and tender hearts make room for others, no matter who they are.

Politics like governments must always be subject to the will of the people.
Question and quantify; check and balance; hope and trust, but verify.

Revivals can occur and catch fire when we come into close contact with God.
Starting revival fires must be followed up with keeping it fed with divine fuel.
Taming our tongues is more than a notion, and is futile without God's help.

Uncommon and underutilized are what have become of common sense.
Values clarification has been replaced with complications and devaluations.
Work ethics and pride of one's craft are not very noble and treasured anymore.

Xenogenesis is the supposed generation of offspring different from the parent.
You and I have been placed on earth with a purpose given to us by God Himself.
Zero, and not hero, is what results when we have nothing to give to others.
