A Little Heaven
Terrorism,
war, corruption
Hunger,
illness and death
Global
warming, accidents and confusion
Watching
a loved one breathe his last breath
Broken
family, hatred and bitterness
Will
all of these ever end?
Pain, jealousy, hatred and hopelessness
All
of this, God is going to mend
Everyone
will be filled with joy
No
more crying, suffering or pain.
Homes
and food His people will enjoy
His
love and blessings will fall like rain
New
heavens and new earth will soon be given
But
we must do something while we wait.
Make
this world a little heaven.
Oh, I think that would be great!
How are you going to help in making God's Kingdom come on earth as it is in heaven?
God be with you.
(The poem was originally written for Vacation Church School 2016 teacher's manual)
