WHY ME-WHY NOW
I find myself feeling overly anxiousÂ
These last few daysÂ
My thoughts are of dyingÂ
And leaving this human raceÂ
I have read the BibleÂ
And heard a sermon or twoÂ
I gave my life to the SaviorÂ
But fear still pierces me through
Where is your faith, trust and believeÂ
The tongue of the so called righteousÂ
Lashes out at me
What about brotherly kindnessÂ
Compassion and loveÂ
Interceding on one's behalfÂ
For His blessings from aboveÂ
It's so easy to judge anotherÂ
When you are not walking in their shoesÂ
Condemnation before conversationÂ
And execution according to your rulesÂ
But in a God I've never seenÂ
I must blindly trustÂ
Believe in His wordÂ
And patiently wait for that heavenly touch.
Wilford Barker.

Hello Wilford, I sense some soul searching in this write. I also believe you brought forward a very common issue. We humans judge far too quickly, before we even know the innards of a person and their battles in life. I enjoyed your reflection on kindness and human compassion. If only we had more of itÂ
