The weak are to important

Proverbs 16:25 

25 There is a way that seems right to a man,
But its end is the way of death.

 

The weak are too important

 

Where is the end? Who has it in His Power?

When did it begin? Who designed temporal?

Who directs the hand and tolerates the showers,

when bombs fall like rain and many breathe their final?

 

Who defends the rights of the poor and needy?

Who stands in the gap when death roams freely?

Who is left to fight when the losers fall to the greedy?

Who in society’s trap lays waiting in their need?

 

A sad way to start this day noticing depravity

A world that changes not and just glorifies repeat

It seems the only way that the strong majestically

have found a trying-way to destroy hope and defeat
