The Still Small Voice of Calm

They fight for freedom and struggle to be heard. When words and platitudes fail, they take up arms, and force their opinions and beliefs upon the world; loudly proclaiming their faith. Firing bullets of sanctity. Daring those who challenge to fight back. Beating them into the submission of defeat. Who are they? In what do they believe? 'In God' they say. Fighting for a peaceful world. Fighting for peace? What with - a double edged sword? Who are they? They are every political activist, every politician, every 'religious' leader of every creed, colour and faith, who encourages and insights the violent murderous warring actions of suppression, aggression and destruction so familiar in our world. Don't use God's name for God is love. God must be recoiling in heaven above: despairing, wringing his great artistic hands in anguish, as He listens to His offspring using Him as an excuse as they systematically destroy His glorious creation. 'Love and peace' they say, as they torture and contort the twisted metal; as they load magazines of hatred in their bludgeoning weapons of death. Stop now! Listen to the gentle voice of our creator as it whispers in the beat of every human heart. Dare to be silent. Dare to dance to a different tune. Put down your arms and hold the hand of your neighbour. Disempower ego, and inhale the love of a God who desires unity not division. You are all fighting for the same God. You are all right because you all have the same opinion! You are shouting so loudly that you cannot hear the still small voice of calm within. Shut up! Let Him be heard.
