Why Not Give God a Chance

Why Not Give God A Chance?

As sin and corruption often 
become integrated…
So many lives and families 
are being “disintegrated.”

Many are being driven 
by sin’s temptation force…
It’s no wonder many homes 
end up in divorce.

The morality and values that 
once made a great nation.
Are now absent.  Leading to a 
“spiritual separation.”

Love, honor, and respect…
 Are a “thing of the past.”
Anything of God seems to be 
disappearing FAST!

God is our only hope!  
And him alone!
Only he can bring healing
 to the broken home.

He’s the answer to the heart that bleeds!
It’s only him that can 
meet all of our needs!

He’s our provider…  
The great: “I am that I am!”
Won’t you reach out to him?
And give him your hand?

Why not give him a chance?  
And allow him in?
A brand new life for you…  
 Is waiting to begin!

Allow his peace and love to reach 
down into your heart…
Asking; “Lord please help me!” 
 Is a good place to start!

well.. methinks you may not like this comment and if you want me to delete it, I will... I believe in goodness, I believe in beauty, I believe that human beings are in one helluva mess. I believe that we're all in this together and that there is a wisdom and compassion far greater than even what the whole of humanity together can muster. I think that often such wisdom and compassion are labelled as "God". I do NOT think, however, that it is male or that it insists I abide by cultural doctrine.
