Trials of the 21st Century

Alcoholic,rageaholic,another drug addiction consumed by depression,Its just a 
fraction of what this generation faces these days;in denial or torn in the middle of 
silence  or confession.Confusion,rebellion,anger and neglect,A huge percentage of 
the worlds youth is another lost soul held hostage by self rightousness and there 
salvation it effects.Abandonment,fear,emptiness,trapped and alone;Enemies to self-
destruct ones life is what so many are known to be in fact a walking bag of 
bones.From neglect brings emptiness;Emptiness results in feeling alone,A heart and 
soul running on the edge of confusion which in many ways can go wrong.Another 
statistic on the news again,I pray for them to all find Jesus,Hes our Savior,our 
God,the beginning and the end.   By Tina Myers 11/06
