I WONDER - COULD IT EVER BE ? """"""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""" Written by Stella Mitchell April 2020 """"""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""" The air seems clear and cleaner now - As if the atmosphere has travelled through a giant Pressure shower - where all the grime and slurry has Been washed away - and taken with it all the hurry - stress And cares - that daily harrass - and perplex mankind each day Could this reflect - though dim our eyes - a tiny glimpse of Eden - and that Garden fair - when all was pure - where That first man and woman - walked with God - in Pristine - perfect - and untainted air . I wonder - could it ever be - the very Earth is crying now - because of man's Apparant selfishness - and inhumanity - where Death - destruction - hate - and greed - have broken Down the basic fabric of all decency - and left it Gasping for the very oxygen it needs - to Thrive and breath - without a mask - that Covers - to protect us from the viruses And germs - that now unseen - Abound - unsheathed . I wonder - Could this ever be ? As I reflect - I wonder now - if God Himself is Saying to us - Stop - you've gone too far - as You have built your towers and your alters to your Many gods - that in your blindness to the Truth - And lust for power - have choked the very Life-blood from the hearts of men - they Seek to conquer - and devour . Could this well be ? But - let us not despair - my friends - for There is hope - deep within this valley of the Shadows - where death and evil seem to flourish Everywhere - take heart - the Shepherd - still is in Control - and He knows we are here - He will not leave Us to the wolves - that lurk to kill - steal and destroy - so - Let our faith in God arise - my friends - believing - He Will save us - and restore our lives - and lead Us to still waters - and to pastures green - And fresher - cleaner - germ free - air . Yes - fearful - anxious - trembling hearts - Look up - and see our Glorious King still reigns Supreme - and He still loves this broken - sin-filled World - and lost humanity - and He has made a Way - Out of the shadowlands of death - along a narrow Way - that led to Calvary - where Jesus Christ Has conquered Death and Hell - and Lives Now - to redeem all those who turn to Him - in true humility . So - turn now - my friends - Receive Him as your Lord and God - and Then - you'll know His heart of Love - and Tender care - and live - with Him - for All Eternity ..... So - Turn and Live . """""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""" I wrote this poem only a few days ago in light of the current Pandemic that has turned this world upside down and inside out . Many have been shaken to the very core of their beings and are full of fear and anxiety about their future , and many sadly, have died from this dreadful virus . But, I believe , in the midst of this situation , God is trying to get our attention . He is not the instigator of this evil that is causing such chaos and misery in the world , that is Satan , and man's sinful nature , that have brought this horror about .... but God .... who Loves us so much, wants us to turn back to Him in repentance of our sins , and then receive His forgiveness and healing , of our lives , and that of our nations . I pray many will hear His voice of love calling to them in the darkness , and turn back to Him . God bless and keep you and give you His peace . With His love Stella X Vote for this poem
