The silliness of the world

Has entered His house.

His children’s hearts

Are scattered about.

Competition, envy,

Exclaim, and complain

Before the start.

Suffering together.

Prospering apart.

Pimping God.

Steadfast to iniquities,

But weary in His word.

I got mines.

Now, you get yours.

Gifted with potential,

Yet blessings never grow.

Hidden light

Eased by the shadows.

While the world goes

Malnourished of a dream,

Addicted to riches.

Faith weeps

As sheep pasture the green.

Holding down my head

Cause I’m no better.

I too lose sight

Of what truly matters.

Caught up in the hustle and bustle

Of chasing delusions.

Treading through the mudded waters.

Partaking in the confusion.

When all’s awry,

I cry.

Ashamed of the predicament.

Realizing it’s all gone wrong.

We’ve become God’s embarrassment.

Let life breathe hope, joy and peace into your existence.
