I live a life so sheltered from the physical wars going on around me,
Ukraine, Gaza, Israel, Somalia, Congo, Iraq, Afghanistan, Sudan, Yemen and many more to name,
I live a life blissfully unaware of my blessings and luxuries,
Millions being tortured, sold, dying, starving, sick and crying out for our help that never came,
So no we are not the same.
The war that I face is for my soul, attention and energy that the enemy is trying to claim,
He will whisper lies into our ears that if God was real then why would he allow so much suffering and pain?
But this pain is mankind\'s doing as they let their own flesh, desires and greed win so God is not to blame,
This is a story we have heard one too many times that God has had to sit through over and over again.
They are too distracted with the enemies false promise of riches, land, status and fame,
That they no longer see the worth of love, joy, and purpose that Jesus was sent to proclaim.
The dystopian films I grew up watching are no longer far from my view the world\'s frame,
Someday\'s I wish Genesis 1 ended verse 25 as we do not reflect the image in which we were made.
But I am at war with myself and must hold onto hope that humanity can be saved.
