Comment from Y. M. Roger
It seems the church is very much alive in some places and facing an 'aging crisis' in others... I do pray that current trends continue and our youth drift more in the direction of Christianity than other religions... because, let's face it, Roy, they're going to choose one or another: there is a God shaped hole in all of us and it begs to be filled with a faith or a belief in something/someone greater than ourselves... we need to do all we can to make the roadsigns of 'Turn Right Here - Savior Awaits' clear and frequent! :) Thanx for sharing, sir! :-) Yvette

So much wisdom in your poem of faith. Excellent scripture to expand and strengthen your message.
Puts a whole new spin on the word "Immigration".

Amen! God is the only One Who knows all things and all that would happen in human history. He can bring good out of all the things we fear. Just some people like to create more fear. I especially liked:
"Most normal men can't see beyond
the curve that's on this road.
Tomorrow's image can't be found
in common mind's abode."

Hello Roy,
you're right, mankind has a pretty poor track record when it comes to messing things up in the world. Even so, God has such a love for us that it boggles the mind. How much better it would be for all of us if only we would give control of our lives over to Him. Thanks for sharing.
Have a blessed day.

Comment from Wendy G
I was hoping your poem with that title might focus more on the immigration of new believers into the body of Christ the church. I thought it drifted off the topic/title a bit, although it was still well written.

The prophetic tone was intriguing. Interesting take on immigration, turning it into a spiritual quest where folks need to move to the Lord who knows the end from the beginning.

A very interesting poem to read Roy, I am not all that familiar with the Universal Church. We belong to "Calvary" and the Pastor is amazing. Loved your work.

I think each person follows their own path, and all paths lead to God. There is no one size fits all policy that ever works. He created individuals, not just one type of being. We have millions of species. It is only man who seeks to limit. karen

God's church is in danger in the US. I am hoping with the change in our government the church won't come under attack any longer. We'll have to wait and see. It didn't the last time Trump was president. Hopefully, it won't again. Thank you for sharing.

Comment from Sandra Stoner-Mitchell
Dear Roy, how God must despair of his children. Only this morning more church leaders have been arrested for what they have done to children. It is the devil who is doing this. Good people want God in their lives and do all they can to to keep it that way. The devil has his hands and his servants in too many places, destroying what once was pure and good. Only God can change this, but how? How do we fight against such evil? We have to trust in God to help us. Your poem is as always, so helpful. You know God, you have met Him, and He knows you. Well done, my friend. Love you lots. Sandra xx

Fortunately I'm in a very alive church, lots of forays into helping the community, I'm dong music with kids, reviving my old songs, so the true church is very much alive. But you don't here about it, only the bad one Sandra, thanks so much, blessings Roy

You're right, Roy. But only hearing the bad stuff is what the TV Radios, Newpaper like best. It sounds like your church is as it should be. I think that is wonderful. We should always help others, so many need more help and it's getting worse every year. If only churches like yours could be everywhere. Well done, my friend. xxx
