They were never your enemy, just waiting to be your friend!55 total reviews

SO TRUE! No comment on your content -- it's spot on.
Your poetic format, however, doesn't need all those commas. To have one at the end of each line just breaks up the poem and makes it harder to read.
Think of the stanza as a line. LIke this:
That person you hate -- Jesus died for them, too, and for not even a moment has Our Risen Savior ever stopped loving you!
Now, without the commas, look at the punctuation. Duplicate that in your post, keeping the lines the way they were. Now it's going to look kind of like this:
That person you hate --
Jesus died for them, too,
and for not even a moment
has Our Risen Savior
ever stopped loving you!
I hope that makes sense. :) And I hope I didn't hurt your feelings. That's never my intent. I'm here to learn, and I leave the kind of reviews I hope to recieve. :)
Be blessed and carry on! Be bold and proclaim.

An excellent message in your well written rhyming poem "An End to Hate".
We do need to remember that Jesus died for us all and not just the people we like.
Well done Fonda.

Your poem reminds the reader of God's love for all and how He expects us to treat each other. You have a smooth flow of rhyming words that adds to the strength of your poem and your words have a musical feel that makes this a poem that can be sung. Excellent use of words and poetic form.

Comment from royowen
The thing I love about what I know, is the fact that there are no internal differences in human beings, God made both the inside and the outside, but it's the internal life that sets us apart. Hatred is the devil's invention, forgiveness is God's, and the marvellous freedom that God affords is the choice between good and bad, in between is not a good place to be. Beautifully written my friend, if we have access to the mind of God...we have access to all wisdom. Well done Bro, blessings Roy

Comment from richie b
Fonda,
The message of your poem is strong and well
written. Your rhyming scheme is clean and natural.
You can read that you believe and feel what you are
writing about.
I am very happy that you are sober and accepted
the saving grace of Jesus Christ.
I am a sober alcoholic and understand what you have
gone through.
Praise the Lord,
Richie b

Comment from Patty Palmer
It takes more energy and time to hate someone just because they are different than it does to meet them halfway and be their friend. When Jesus died on that cross, he died for that person too. You can't hate one person and the next you love. Jesus didn't pick whose sins he died for and which ones he wasn't going to die for so who are we to pick and choose who we will like or love, Great poem!

Comment from estory
I think you express these great sentiments of the love of Christ that we all need to put at the center of our lives to break out of hate and individualism. We need to get past that narrow viewpoint and take the beam out of our own eyes. We need to live in the love of Christ. estory
