dedicated to Billy Lucas and other teen suicide victims
Once again a terrible tragedy has come on the scene
Because of taunting and bullying another life would end
His name was Billy Lucas his age only fifteen
He couldn't bear another day of their cruel intentions
The rumors are that he was gay but not yet proven
No matter what the case may be there's no justifiable reason
To be unkind or to belittle another human being
Those that do are working for the god of this world "satan"
For them to literally bully someone to death...
How could anyone ever live with themselves?
Jesus came to earth with a commandment to love
If you fail to love others you're not children of God
I didn't know Billy personally but reading in the post
That he was troubled already but the bullying made it worse
Society has truly taken on a self seeking agenda
Exalting themselves to a height above the one that created them
I can only pray to God that Billy's death won't be in vain
That many lives through repentance God himself will reclaim
Making the works of the devil result in heaven's gain
I pray God's love be manifested in all of His creation
My prayers goes out to all Billy's family and friends
And for all that are plagued by bullying and taunting
I also pray for the bullies who no doubt lack self esteem
For truly the lack of love for themselves is the root and problem
If I could convey one truth to all troubled teens :
Suicide is a permanent solution for a temporary problem
I beg you to take your thoughts captive and call someone
For absolutely there is help and nobody is truly alone
Know it is the enemy that puts those thoughts in your head
Speak the name of Jesus and read His life giving word instead
We're in the last days and the devil seeks whom he may devour
For he knows his time is short in these last days and hours
Love never fails and will grow by reading the bible
But hate births contentions,strife and all manner of evil
I pray God's mercy and grace be upon young Billy Lucas
And God knowing his troubled soul will place him in the arms of Jesus

1 John 3:10-14 (New International Version)
10 This is how we know who the children of God are and
who the children of the devil are: Anyone who does not do
what is right is not a child of God ;
nor is anyone who does not love his brother.
****************
Love one another
****************
11 This is the message you heard from the beginning:
We should love one another.
12 Do not be like Cain, who belonged to the evil one
and murdered his brother.
And why did he murder him? Because his own actions were
evil and his brother's were righteous.
13 Do not be surprised, my brothers, if the world hates you.
14 We know that we have passed from death to life,
because we love our brothers.
Anyone who does not love remains in death.
1 John 4:7-11 (New International Version)
*******************
God's Love and Ours
*******************
7 Dear friends, let us love one another, for love comes from God.
Everyone who loves has been born of God and knows God.
8 Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love.
9 This is how God showed his love among us:
He sent his one and only Son into the world that we might
live through him.
10 This is love: not that we loved God, but that he loved us
and sent his Son as an atoning sacrifice for[ our sins.
11 Dear friends, since God so loved us, we also ought to love one another.
