We Need To Learn

We need to learn
By Michelle Morris

There are times when I'm frustrated
That the bad guys always seem to win
But then my angels quietly remind me
That it's not about their sins

It's all about my path 
And how I learn and grow
Do I always do the right thing?
Even if I could make foes?

For the way I treat others
Is a reflection of who I am
And remaining good and kind
Is always better for God's plan

Those bad guys that win
Will find their own way to live and learn
Their choices reflect on them
And in the hell they might burn

For those who think they can get away
With doing any dark and treacherous thing
Will realise when their soul is taught
About their karmic lessons

It's all about the light and love
That we need to learn each lifetime
And if we don't get it right
We'll have to try again

It is not a threat to anyone
Who wants to do bad things
It is simply a reminder
That we are all eternal beings

No one is exempt
From the seeds that they have sown
And wouldn't it be so much better
If those seeds were pure and rosy

Amen, it's not to tell others they are living bad, without Jesus why not do what you want, need more shinning a light to reveal to them the love of God , and the changed life that's available to all, you my friend are full of positivity and love for all , May God bless, comfort, guide and fill you with His peace, love and joy in abundance : )

Thank you, Stephan. It's a challenge to keep setting an example in a world that's going a bit crazy. But hopefully light and love will keep spreading. Everyone is capable of making a positive difference. I appreciate your wonderful blessings. Thank you. May you experience this too. :-)
