Lockdown Hope

In times like these,
Where to find peace?

World under lockdown,
By fear, people bogged down,

They say it's a virus,
It sure does perspire us,

Many deaths have been caused,
Our round-the-clock lives are paused,

Yes, it's the last days,
Rapture will soon take place,

In God alone we have our hope,
Through His peace alone, we cope.

Beautifully said, a statement to a strong faith in what is yet to be and what is yet to come.

We have fear only if we let them make us have fear. Nice seeing you again, Jo. Soupmail.

I've been reading Psalm 62 a lot lately, Jo. "My soul finds rest in God alone; my salvation comes from him". Thank you for putting these thoughts into a comforting poem. Blessings ~~ John
