Poetry by #aderichardss

Dear You,

I believe you are faring well. If so, remember that it can only be God. So therefore, never forget to be grateful.

In the past weeks, I've been taking my time to observe a small town that is speedily approaching development and civilization. I looked and I saw how the development and civilization is gradually wiping out the moral and cultural values in this town. I do not deny the fact that I saw the advantages but I'm alarmed by the disadvantages I mentioned above. In the town, I noticed a steady decline of decent dressing, mutual respect, respect for elders, honesty, love, care, hardwork, morality and what have you. I pondered over it, then I realised that they are simply the dangers that accompanies prosperity.
I contrast this to the story of the Israelites. Israelites were just some slaves in Egypt who God took to the promised land and made them free men and women ( not only that, He also made them rich and powerful) but what happened? The dangers of prosperity crept into their lives. Their lifestyle began to evolve gradually from Godliness to Godlessness. Before the reign of Solomon was over, Israelites had gone into idolatry. A lot of evil began to creep into the society and the presence of God gradually declined. And what was the result? They went back into slavery again!!!!!

My dear, the absence of God is called death. Death is not just when a person dies physically. Death is when you look at your society and find money rituals, prostitution, indecency, orgies, rich jobless people and a church that tells you that grace covers all these things.

Sincerely yours,
