Yelling out loud, “Peace, please!”

15th Oct 2023

Yelling out loud, “Peace, please!”

We wait for it, but anticipating sweetness in bitters, is an acquired taste? Yes I can put of, for long enough, my own sense of Peacefulness!

Looking for white flags, or better still, making them, is what we don’t do very well? Humans try. And we pray, some. It gives me a peace that surpasses all death of joy. We will each die one day. No surprise. But while there’s breath, go away hatred. I’m not looking for you. There’s this mindset that pursues me. The mind of Christ: its Unshakeable Kingdom within, stained with Blood that reconciles man to God.

Peace is really not my thing;
my fav’rite Psalm is One Four Four,
and like David, servant king
I was designed by God for war.
A quiet life is way too bland,
a boring dusty patient test.
With a weapon in my hand,
you will see me at my best,
confident, forever strong,
with a glad humourous shout,
always right and never wrong,
no matter what the fight’s about,
so close your eyes and sleep ye well,
for I will stand ‘tween you and hell.

Yes. We do need to look for peace even in the midst of violence and hatred!
