What? Poem by Deluke Muwanigwa

What?

Rating: 5.0


So what exactly is our purpose on earth?

To do our creators bidding
The hungry we be feeding
To carry out his instruction
His creation not to end in destruction
To do good on this earth
Not condemn others to death
To love one another as he did us
To love your brother in need of a bus
To look after all his creations
Not to be arbitrary with our discretions
Not to subvert his authority,
playing Him with notoriety
To use all resources he bequeathed,
without protocols being missed
To use the laws of nature
to enable nature to nurture
To see His power in all things great and small
Equality in people black, white, yellow all tribes short or tall

So what exactly is your purpose on earth?
What exactly is our purpose on this earth?

God is love so to obey we must love
The list above is intuitive not from above
If you have no love you are not of God
If you play God and hoodwink with Gold
You are not obeying the naturals laws
What you are doing in Gods image is low
You can have a theocracy
You can have a democracy
You can be a dictator
You can be an arbitrator
If you don't love you are not of God
You loot, live large, but act cold

You can be of a certain sect
In marriage don't believe in same sex
You can build big churches
As you praya treat people like leeches
You can have millions, nay, billions of people
But kill, incarcerate and ignore the feeble
You can have the world at your feet
On the high seas the most powerful fleet
Alas, as long as you have not shown love
Your place in the infinity of God is not above

For God is love
God is love
God is love
Love love and more love.

Alas, as long as you have not shown love Your place in the infinity of God is not above... A path the begins is love Deviates nowhere in universe For love knows its destination And love never gets allured amidst confusion That's why love rules nation Without any affirmation.

Yes it all begins with love. In fact our purpose revolves around love in course of which rest all fall just right on place. I agree with your thoughts. It begins with love only.....an insightful poetry.
