My Destiny – an acrostic

M oving mountains through prayers of faith.

Y oking my life with the Lord Jesus Christ.

D elving deep into the mysteries of the Bible.

E scaping the snares of the evil one set up to trap me.

S inging praises of worship to my King.

T eaching His Word to His children.

I nstilling a love for words to my students.

N ever giving up on my students despite what I see and hear.

Y elling and shouting the Truth about these end times to all who will hear.

Rivers of Tears

My heart cries
rivers of tears
because of duplicity.

There has been too much pain,
too much of loved ones being harassed
because of duplicity.

No more poems of instruction
and correction and teaching
in the way we should go.

No more beautiful thoughts
and prayers for our well being
and our healing hearts.

No more wise columns
and urgent ims and
words of encouragement.

All gone because of venomous
duplicity.

Poets with fake aliases
and deceptive tactics
and evil schemes tear down the just.

What happened to the golden rule,
respect for the beliefs of others,
old fashioned respect and courtesy?

All this is gone
and now dread duplicity resides at AP.

Evil reigns where duplicity is found.
You cannot be two faced, or can you?
You cannot be two places at once, or can you?

A friend to one; a murderer to another.
Love sent in one message; hate sent in the next.
Lies upon lies upon lies…

What is the true you?
How can you know for sure?
Where can you find yourself?

My heart cries
rivers of tears.
Duplicity ushers in chaotic despair.

Dear Lord, please end this outrage.
