Present and Future


If everyone on Capitol Hill.
Just ceased suddenly, to
see each other as evil,
What an amazing event that
would be!
A transformation so astounding,
Most think this is totally unthinkable.

Man wants to think only he can
solve the world's problems!
Forgetting, only one Man wrote
the script of life, not you, not me.
Many would rather hush than say
God's name.
Literally, ashamed to say His name 
for fear of losing friends and fame.

We can all do good, but God?
Neither you nor I will ever be!
We were not put here to lust over
fame, sex, power, or money.
Nor for our glory nor to be grand 
fixers of humanity's every sorrow.
We are here to do His will, which
requires utmost humility.
And knowing His commandments 
and words, ever so completely.

You're right. Doing God's will requires utmost humility, as exemplified by Abraham the Patriarch. So, according to this calculation, there are 537 Congressman on the Hill who are not doing God's will! And one President too. ~ gw

Hmmm..check the Torah on looking into our own lives first. There's so much going on and we see snippets of truth though media brainwashing. Honestly, glad I am not there nor you. We both would be labeled. HaShem sees what they are doing. That's the good part.. Heh Heh. Panagiota
