Opioid and street drug abuse are running
amok,
America seems to be rotting from the core.
Growing addictions, will we be able to shuck?
To opioids and drugs, have we become ...like a whore?
A recovered drug addict said, ‘I was like a zombie!’
‘Could only think about getting my next fix!’
I well remember the days when the problem was whiskey!
Oh, how far we’ve slid on how we ‘get our fix’!
It only took less than one thousand years,
For the human race to deteriorate,
To the point of bringing The Lord to tears,
And to decide Earth to de-populate.
It has been several thousand years since then,
And once thing to us is abundantly clear:
The human race is as it’s always been,
So is the time to ‘de-populate’ again near???
As a result of a seven-year tribulation,
Comprising judgments on this God-rejecting world,
Flesh will be rare! Imagine such a situation!!
Afterward, a refreshed earth will then be unfurled.
Until then, must we all grow more accustomed,
To the dark and very foreboding notion,
Which to each of us may be so unwelcomed,
That your neighbor may be ...on his drugs potion?

If thoughts of a druggie so close to your portals,
Are seriously shaking you to your inner core,
Consider that bad friends will spoil your good morals.
Make sure friends don’t turn YoU into
...the zombie next door!
Now consider this unique, awesome perspective,
That to some may sound somewhat gloomy.
God says a life that to Christ is not receptive,
Is just like living ...as a zombie! *

Very good piece, Brother J!
ReplyDeleteMerci beaucoup! Something that had been resonating in my spirit for a few weeks.
DeleteMay The Lord use this and other posts to give 'perspective' to many.
