It is the character of a brave and resolute man not to be ruffled by adversity
and not to desert his post.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
(time for molting / a cardinal looking worse for the wear /Julie Cook / 2016)
Now is the time for the Faithful to be both brave and resolute…
for doubt and complacency have blanketed reality.
No longer do we know what is truth or fallacy…
As loud voices are vying for supremacy.
But we have been warned, long before now, that false prophets will abound.
There will be those who come and go offering promises that can’t be kept.
As we’ve been lulled into ignoring honesty
We’ve readily traded Truth for the satisfaction of self…
while the masses have not a clue.
There is neither time nor season to waste…
The stage is set, the events have begun,
yet everyone is too busy posing for the selfies of the egocentric.
Speak up you who hold the Faith.
Stand firm and hold your ground….
Because if you don’t, no one else will…
as all will have been for naught…
You don’t think so?
You don’t agree?
You don’t wish to be an alarmist?
You don’t want to appear intolerant, ignorant or uninformed…
Trouble is…
you don’t have the time to wait and wonder if…
How long will you lie there, you sluggard?
When will you get up from your sleep?
Proverbs 6:9
