Notes About The Poem
19 There were no blacksmiths in the land of Israel in those days. The Philistines wouldn’t allow them for fear they would make swords and spears for the Hebrews. 20 So whenever the Israelites needed to sharpen their plowshares, picks, axes, or sickles, they had to take them to a Philistine blacksmith. 21 The charges were as follows: a quarter of an ounce of silver for sharpening a plowshare or a pick, and an eighth of an ounce for sharpening an ax or making the point of an ox goad. 22 So on the day of the battle none of the people of Israel had a sword or spear, except for Saul and Jonathan.
I am planning on trying to write a poem but I have not got it together in my brain yet. Sara
Doomed
Parlous decisions
Have been made
Regarding our plants
Wrong hands played
China now top nation
In terms of output
By manufacturing jobs
Leads USA hard put
Where do our parts
Come from for repairs
Where does our military
Gear appear~ despair
Where do our vehicles
Arise? Drop from
Starry skies?
No, China roll the drum
People wake up
Israel won the battle
Because Jonathan
Believed God, he won the chattel
How many true believers
Are there now
Is there a remnant?
Maybe a bough
The remnant needs to
Pray more and more
Each and every day
We need our Jesus to adore
If you are a believer
Would you join me
In prayer every day
At your convenience, plea
Ask God for some time
For America to revive
Once again to come alive
Our country once again to thrive
Spiritually awaken
Work for a spiritual
Purpose not just self
Not endeavors empirical
Like Jonathan
Let's call on God
Let's let Him lead us
A remnant can win ....
This isn't exactly the way I was planning on going. Believers lift up your hearts in prayer each day for our country. Pray for our leaders for their salvation and their trust in God to lead us as a nation. A nation that prays together stays together.
