Our problems are many,

Yet the solutions radiate from one Being.

He wraps Himself in light,

And dwells in inapproachable glory.

We’ve long known the solution – Love thy neighbour,

But the heart resists when it is time to act

Complaints rise, yet love doesn’t flow

So how do you expect there to be any real change?

Maybe you don’t truly value righteousness,

Maybe the purity of innocence doesn’t draw you as you claim

Because if it did, as much as money, attention or influence,

You’d sacrifice those very things to pursue Him

The path of deep love is often quiet,

And as long as it continues to be ‘their problem’

And not ours,

The world will continue to be the same.

How increasingly removed people are from nature. Man was taken from the ground, as well as receiving God’s Spirit through the breath of life given to Adam. Both of these cannot be denied, and the effects of suppressing them is showing. God’s healthcare plan begins with relationship with Him, and interacting with nature is a part of that. Beauty, fresh air, solid ground and open skies beckon because apart from keeping our physical bodies going, they also point us to Him.
