The Message God's Sent

Floods coastal and inland
    Droughts across the world
  Rising temps, melting ice
    Tsunamis at us being hurled
 
  We clamor for climate action
    Searching in vain for consensus
  Yet we scoff at the message God's sent
     ~ Time for us all to repent

Wow Gershon, this is the real reason the climate is changing. Your truth speaks Mother Natures real reason of Chaos. Another favorite. Been working on the house haven't been on too much have some remodeling to catch up on, glad I came by my friend. Another home run... I am going to start calling you Babe as in Babe Ruth...

Absolutely! No surer way to stop a plague. Go tell that to today's woke-sters, eh? Thanks, Bill.

I believe that is true. We need a revival with repentance, and to replant some trees and do some other clean-ups to help right some wrongs that has been done on this earth in nature and in moral living. I enjoyed reading this one that I had missed. Sara

Thank you for your support on this one, Sara. Not many want to spend time in true repentance anymore...

Quite true....Gershon. Natural calamities take a toll of our life ! Now in our land, we xperience cloud burst, landslides and floods. In another part of the world, temperature on the rise. But we never seem to notice the warnings God gives! Without repenting, we keep marauding the earth !

So, should we go back to plowing with oxen, riding donkeys and horses? Using candles for light? ~ Just sayin'
