Poetic Verses
Mounting Affliction
There's mounting affliction in our land
Earthquakes and hurricanes
Tornadoes, floods, and major fires
Long droughts and torrential rains.
Even though these things are nothing new
They are happening more and more
And the scope of their destruction now
Has not been seen before.
Some scientists say it's climate change
That clearly is to blame
So, they paint a doomsday picture
And then boldly assert their claim.
But perhaps God has a hand in this
Since our nation is going astray
With Christian values under attack
And believers falling away.
Immorality now is rampant
Heinous crimes are on the rise
While the family unit falls apart
Before our very eyes.
Yes, with the mounting affliction
God's promise remains true
That He will surely heal our land
If we turn to Him anew.
