Sign of the Times

     Little Davie wants to pray like a pro
     Too bad for Davie that he doesn’t know
        His mentor is a fraud
        His conduct deeply flawed
     Every night, to the peep-shows he does go

Sadly, there are adults that pretend to know God. Little Davie may need protection. I was disgusted when I was at an outdoor stadium watching a graduation and a nth degree pervert, sitting in front of me was watching extreme porn (really?!!!!)

Hope little Davie doesnt follow his mentor. Many people are positions of authority or mentorship in most any religion that shouldnt be there.

Even one rotten mentor can spoil a barrel of precious innocents, unfortunately.

Sadly my friend so many are too much involved with themselves and their sin than pleasing our God. Following his commandments is number one. Great thoughts here. Thanks for shedding light on Hypocrisy...
