Call On Your Higher Power |
|
| Whatever religion you may be... whatever religion you may practice... Call on your higher power. | |
| You
may be able to find some strength and some understanding by doing
so. During these trying times, it is essential that we not judge all people by the cowardice actions of a few. During these trying times, it is important that we pray for all those who lost their lives. During these trying times, it is important that we pray for the families of those who lost their lives. During these trying times, it is important that we pray for the friends of those who lost their lives. During these trying times, we must stop and reflect on what each of us can do to stop the violence. During these trying times, we must not forget their is good in everyone, albeit many of us are misguided. During these trying times, stop and cry if that will help you make it through the day. During these trying times, remember the good. During these trying times, remember that we must educate to eradicate negative isms (racism, sexism, etc.). During these trying times, remember that it is horrible that killing has begotten killing. During these horrible times, remember that he will provide. During these horrible times, remember to be kind to your fellow man... even though you might be afraid of him and distrustful of him. During these horrible times, remember we have been bent more than we have in many years... but we are not broken... but we are seriously injured. During these terrible times, remember that for every life that was taken... we will hurt... we will be sad... we might never understand... and have any peace with it... BUT During these trying times, remember that with the love of the supreme master... we will move forward... albeit slower and with a heavy hard. During these terrible times, call on Jehovah, Jesus, God, Allah or whoever you need to call on to get whatever strength you can garner... BECAUSE WE ARE ALL GOING TO NEED IT! |
