God Replaces Hate With Love

by Deborah Smith Plemmons © 2019

There are people everywhere
Who love to do their best.
Then there are those who hate
And live to cause unrest.

There are shootings, stabbings,
Fights, bombings, and more.
It can happen far away
Or right at our front door.

At church, synagogues,
On the job, or at school;
We aren't safe anywhere,
When people break the *Rule*.

For the lives of others,
They just have no regard.
When there's so much violence,
Many lives are left scarred.

Some want to blame others
For the things that they do.
Adam and Eve did the same;
So, it is nothing new.

Human life, we all know,
Is precious in God's sight.
He desires that each of us
Will choose to do what's right.

God wants all to know
That Jesus is the way.
He'll replace hate with love,
For those who trust and obey.

Matthew 7:12
