Running Out of Time

I In this nation we buy airtime Or Data for internet access, and texting After church I see I'm low on airtime And Data. From poems, I may seek vacation II But the world is running out of time For reforming our ways, for environment, home May I add, Time for prayer, or lockdown again Omicron has not killed ... yet. A sinister plan? III Take heart; powerful folk may not need prayer Weaker ones like me need my Savior more than ever We are running out of time; and the LORD, of patience? As elites play God, ignoring Hebrew exile, Flood of Noah IV Pray my dear siblings, for humane talk, and Jub-Jub "smasher" In this nation, Amanda Dupont was "raped for two years," Per SABC Sunday Radio broadcast, by Jub-Jub, culture leader As we begin 16 days to stop GBV, new or ancient virus? NOTE: GBV, in South Africa means; gender Based Violence, where killing of women and females as young as 6 years, made news this week (following rape, usually). This is sad news almost daily. We have several pandemics in our modern cultures, education notwithstanding.

" Weaker ones like me need my Savior more than ever'--- As I consider myself weak, I need a lot of prayer and I am sure the world too needs. So many young girls are abused in our country too... So sad!

Hello Anil - I will not touch your entry. Please allow me to let your words of worth speak. I agree with the message of running out of time not only with this issue but so many as well. We all need a time out to regroup and process life and the living and what society is. Blessings always. Namaste Namaste Namaste
