Radio stations play beautiful Christmas Carols spreading joy
News reels reporting bad news sandwiched between the melodies
Store windows decorated in festive holiday scenes
Television stations broadcasting war zones
Nations fighting unwinnable wars
Innocent women and children caught in the crossfire
We pray each and every day for peace when there is no tangible peace
Families planning get togethers with relatives from near and far
Ignoring unusual and destructive weather patterns
Smiling faces hiding the sense of urgency in our hearts
Our hearts and souls long for an elusive hope
That can only come from above
“Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Savior Jesus Christ.” Titus 2:13
Even so Lord Jesus come.
Kuprianov writes from Wildwood.
