The Way of LIfe
by pharp
Excellent poem about God's love and racism. Some lines are perfect expression of what goes on in our country, it's a disgrace. We still have public lynchings, like George floyd's.
"Never should a man be hung from a tree" well said.
"Imagine one's self a different race;." This would be a great way to punish a racist like white supremacists.
I love the ending...
"God created us all...His Masterpiece!"

Comment from Begin Again
My beloved family is one of mixed colors and I am blessed by God to be able to share their love. Not everyone accepted, but they soon learned that the power of God's love outweighed the hatred in their minds. Your words of faith and strength are powerful and I am always drawn to what you write. thank you for sharing your inspiration and your spiritual thoughts. Smiles as always, Carol

Comment from Wendy G
You are right - His love is perfect, and His ways are perfect too. There is no discrimination of persons with God - all are equal and loved. Man's heart needs renewal - by Him - in order to remove hatred and prejudice and replace these with His perfect love. Well written!

Comment from dragonpoet
Portia,
This poem tells us a truth by which we should all live. Kindness and acceptance should be the rule. You're question about changing race and seeing if it changes your actions and beliefs is an intereting one.
Keep writing and stay healthy

Comment from Senyai
Hi PHarp.
This poem is a masterpiece and I felt the love pouring from your marvelous words. If we all could live by these words of truth then all of our troubles as a nation and world would be 95% solved I dare say. Thanks for posting such an honest and forthright verse that I had the pleasure to read. It was refreshing and uplifting!
Also I thought your image of the bridge was perfect to show the way God has plans for our lives if we would just follow.
Have a wonderful week,
Senyai

Comment from nomi338
God had a definite reason for creating men to look different. Only one who loves God enough to obey his commandments to love fellow as though he were your brother, or neighbor. When Jesus told the parable of the good Samaritan, the same message was being taught. Do not hate someone because he looks different, speaks another language, or is from another place. You cannot love God whom you have never seen and be hating the brother you see every day. It does not work that way. When you do this, you bard the doors of heaven from which your blessings should flow. The lesson is, the things you get from Satan the Devil are temporary and he will be taking them from you shortly so that he can give them to the next fool that aligns himself with the Devil.

Compelling and thought-provoking--a fresh twist on the theme of faith--this would have made a unique contest entry. Intriguing to contemplate your question!
