Beacon of Hope

Beacon of hope By Michelle Morris 14/06/2021 The Lord and I, we spoke for a spell; I asked why I'm so different and why He did it so well. "Where are my people, the good and the brave? Why do I get to be alone in a superficial world? Where are the deep thinkers? Those with creativity? Where are those with kindness and integrity? Who do I belong to, when money and power corrupts so many? And why am I often the one to stand alone against God's enemies?" "My child", he said, "I forged you to be of light and good, To be a beacon of hope and purity in a world gone mad; Standing alone is what happens to the light in the dark, But while you are still breathing you can create a spark. One day you'll understand how many lives you saved, So don't give up, keep on having hope and faith; be brave; For the time will come when evil in men is thwarted for good, And My Kingdom will rise again and save humanity's soul. I know it's hard to understand why you walk alone, Along this path of righteousness to be My own; But out there you're a warrior with Michael too, And in the end, you'll triumph by just being you." © Michelle Morris, 2021
