Each Placed by Almighty God

 EACH PLACED BY ALMIGHTY GOD

Everything in nature is precisely born.

Action and reaction innate to its properties

Choice is given by the Almighty God, freely

Honed by the creature, given a chance in

Place foreign to overcome pitfalls, sometimes -

Loveless,

Abused,

Causation by society, sometimes family

Every trial causes growth, excellent or evil

Despair goes to the giver, meted out tenfold

Bystanders are appalled, and some moved to change.

Yet others continue in their downward spiral into hell,

Already made by attitudes of grandeur; a superiority not

Liable to their maker, born from circumstance, or led by

Murder of conscious deliberately made,

Instead of cherishing the newborn babe delivered to

Give peace, prosperity, joy, happiness; who lost the way?

Honor the life given as it is yours to mold into a greatness

Totally in one's own hands, color was Allah's choice, knowing

You need to learn that all creatures are made and belong to

God, to whom all are precious in His sight:

Over lands, countries, tribes, animals, and nature's beauty.

Do not fail your destiny, embracing self-righteousness and hate.

Today's poetry was inspired by a group writing on the love of humanity and culture. It also was a joining of knowing the Almighty God is said differently in each culture's language, and the ignorance of not learning the difference causes division and self-righteous attitudes on those who refuse to read and explore what is not known.

God in my language, English is different in other languages but is the same in the spirit and in each 'Holy Book' of religions. Even the same commandments are there - interpretation by sects that break away from the original faith make their own rules, and humanity is walking its own path.

The only way to learn is not to assume one is correct until one has totally investigated by reading, but even in that, God tells us in His word not to blaspheme the Holy Spirit. That means that since I am not all-knowing, I keep my thoughts off my tongue. I can only share what I know; to me, God means unconditional love, my strength, my beginning, and my end. He alone has the right to do as He pleases and He can and seemingly does differently to meet each understanding.
