Poem for Thought

  

The Best I Can

 

In this world now, I'm not a fan 

As to certain things I just want to scoff

But in this place I do the best I can

I know to death I'll be better than

Please stop the world I want to get off

For in this world now, I'm not a fan

Even thou I know God has a plan

It's hard when to my ways are cutoff

But in this place I do the best I can

I only want in this world to love

My thoughts racing to how this can be done

Only here to fly away as a dove

Hard to find my place with anyone

As again my ways this world displaced

So now with the Lord I'm number one

 

As to here with Him my love is placed

For in this world now, I'm not a fan

Where to love here, hate has replaced

But in this place I do the best I can

Thoughts: "If the world hates you, you know that it hated Me before it hated you. If you were of the world, the world would love its own. Yet, because you are not of the world, but I choose you out of the world, therefore the world hates you." (John 15: 18-19. NKJV). What a powerful statement Jesus made to his disciples; which still holds true today. Often times I feel out of place here due my religious beliefs and ways. Then God reminds me of His Love that transcends a world of hate. God is Love and satan is hate; just as, God gives one love, the world gives one hate. The world, currently, is satan's domain; thus, strife, drama, depression, pain, and hatred, and all the bad this world offers, satan places on one. Making it hard to love in the hatful atmosphere of today's world. When I feel out of place in a world of hate, I know I am loved by the only One that really matters; God. Sometimes, as Christians, when we feel out of place in this world, we need to just remember what Jesus said to His disciples. And know, that even when the world makes one feel out of place, unwanted, and hated, that He loves us regardless of how much the world hates us. To just do the best you can to love in a world full of hate! 

Noted Thoughts: Actually, one as a Christian, should feel out of place in a world of hate, and should know in feeling this way, you must be doing something right!
