Spiritual Strategies For Trump Times

We're in the midst of trump times and 
We need to understand 
That that individual in the White House 
Is not a righteous man 
He's all about division, discord 
And disarray 
And when a domestic terror act occurred 
He did not have much to say 
White nationalists staged a rally to keep 
A confederate statue in place 
No regard and no respect for any other 
Ethnicity nor any other race 
A group of anti- protesters were in a
Peaceful march as well 
Until a nationalist in a car mowed them down 
Causing utter hell

We're in trump times the country's 
Moral barometer has done a reverse 
We're in trump times trust and believe
It can only get worse
Threats against the North Koreans 
Who are launching potential weapons to kill
Instead of using diplomacy 
Trump wants to assert his will
On the precipice of what could 
Possibly become world war 3 
What should we do?
What are our spiritual strategies? 

One, we would do well to accept
The invitation from Christ our Savior
To worship, witness and walk
With a Christlike behavior
We need God to remind us
That we are not alone
And never ever forget that its He
Who sits on the throne 
God is in charge He's still in control
Hopefully He'll work on presidents
Trump and Kim Jong Un souls 

Two, we need gather together in 
Remembrance of He
Jesus the Christ who died
To give us the victory
To eat of the bread and drink of the wine
Remnants of His body and blood 
To examine our own hearts
And acknowledge His unconditional love
To stay in touch with reality 
To remember our past and our pain
Of the slavery that is still on American
A badge of shame

Let us never forget 
what has come to pass
Let us never forget Jesus 
and the love for us He has
For when we remember we reestablish 
All truths and how they came to be
And no tweet will erase nor change
The true reality 

Trump talks about fake news
But free press will prevail 
As only free press stops a nation from 
Becoming a dictatorship from hell

Spiritual strategies for trump times 
We need to realize 
We need to stay united
And keep our eyes on the prize 
Let us never forget the blood 
That was shredded and the sacrifice
Let us never forget that for our sins
Jesus gave His life
Let us look past skin color
And ignore race 
Let us remember God 
Who gave us His infinite 
Mercy and Grace

You have expressed what I believe; well written, well-thought out, and well-penned. Very telling, thoughtful and true.

I acknowledge your poem, Louise...You expressed yourself well, indeed...There's a reason for everything under the sun, sometimes our Father uses the most unassuming methods for us to overcome... Have a nice day
