the headline reads on the daily news

God Bless America

i didn't see any image of Jesus 

except a false goof with blonde hair and blue eyes, the way the world perceives him 

to be in the world's eyes that continues to be blinded by truth that forever hurts

i saw the american flag crucify and blood spilled over the front page

the image i know it's true is Jesus sacrificing his life for our sins

His blood gushed out of His body

it was horrific, it was also amazing that three days later, He rose from the dead to save us from hate

what took place in Orlando is tragic

lives taken innocently by terrorism

can this absent minded, idiotic country not label terrorists as only muslims

any person who uses weapons as a form of mass destruction is a terrorist

terrorism is based on hateful acts, not color

my heart bleeds for lives gone in Orlando

my heart also bleeds for lives annihilated in Chicago

my hearts continues to shed blood in Brooklyn, where five young brothers were slaughtered on a basketball court

by an idiot who accused them of stealing his bookbag.

he didn't see them, but shot them none the less

all because he listen to the enemy whose main purpose to steal, kill & destroy

just like that guy in Orlando, he heard the same lies from satan

he echo steal, kill, & destroy

even those dudes, and others who orchestrated the violence by playing the tunes of rounds shots firing

hitting bodies that sounds like drum beats

you pray for them because they don't know no better

they are mean, evil spirited people

bloodbaths spilled all over the streets of south side in chicago

where lives were laying there dead as if you were playing resident evil but live

i'm not known to be a gambler

but how much you want to bet that the focus point will be Orlando

why? there's more capitalism such that opportunities pertains to certain people

why? people who were killed represented a certain lifestyle

i wonder how much emphasis people will talk about the sorrows, the hurt, the pain in Chicago

the shootings happen in south side, you know the ghetto

gang rivals continue to retaliate where one of their mans is killed like this country, but no one wants to hear the actual truth

a place the world sees people as gorillas, and uneducated

a neighborhood of broken glass windows, doors with bullet holes, drunks on the corner, poverty excel like trump's preliminary victories in states (which by the way is insane)

an environment where the unborn leaves the mother's womb and already wants to go back inside the womb due to traumatic impact of shots fired

would that same passion of people crying their eyes out for Orlando be the same in Chicago or even Brooklyn

i truly wonder

cries should not be less to communities that are not applicable to gentrification

emotions that are desensitize cold heartedly where persecution is normative

the poor is mistreated by society by labeling them as one less dead nigga to worry about

no one who are victims of violent wars should be imprison or deny of justice

all lives matters

where one comes from is irrelevant, we come from different walks of life coming together for one reason

to obey, serve, minister, and prophesy God's words in magnifying Him 

God bless everything He touches

the problem is that people don't want to seek to touch Him

and yet The Lord gets blame for the latest massacre

but i ask

where is your faith? where is it?

if you want to know 

read Hebrew 11:6

if you don't have faith , how can you please God

if you want to know The Lord, accept that He exists and walk with Him

He blesses those who seek Him diligently

that's how God works, it's His time, it's His will

He will never leave nor forsake us despite our unfaithfulness

combating hate not with retaliation

but with reconciliation with God

by listening when He say the word love

love your enemies who persecute you

love Me with your heart, your soul, your mind & your strength

love your neighbor

love edifies, hate crucifies

when there's seperation, all you doing is adding on the problem that exists

when there's unification, we not only move mountains, we're adding on to make a difference to the world

where we influence people, not impress people

death have no color, but red that bleeds in the streets

the difference is the bullet holes one takes to the body

where they can't fight back

what i ask is that we resist the oppression of hate with love

not during the moment of crisis or when it passes

but throughout our lives where we have a purpose

if you don't know where to begin

start with a biblical scripture that's simple, yet powerrful verse

no weapons form against us shall prosper, that comes from Isaiah 54:17

if that doesn't hit you in the core

then we all unify with this verse from Phillipians 4:13

i can do all things through Christ who stregthens me

the i becomes we

when we figure this out, watch how Our Heavenly Father takes our weaknesses

and turns them into strengths for His glory.
