Comment from Sally Law
A pointed set of questions in this one, mystery poet. Yes, our country's divided. I think the list of our differences is long because of the current leadership and the direction they're wanting to take America. I do not want to go in the direction Biden and Harris have taken us. Nor do I want the trainwreck called Harris/Walz!! There's the end to our demoracy in plain sight.
--Rights taken away from the preborn child and no guards in place to protect them until birth, is not acceptable!!
--Parental rights revoked all because they want a child to have transgender surgery? It's absolutely sick! It's criminal, unconstitutional, against the international law of children's rights, and it's grievous to God. I will not cast my vote for any democrat because that's their platform.
--The open border, fentanyl and opoids coming over like clockwork. Human trafficking especially of unaccompanied minors. Criminals pouring in and our system is terrible in dealing with processing them and sending them back.
--Crime is up in every democrat run city and state. I keep an eye on this.
--Poor Israel. Holocaust no. 1 taught us nothing. They are fighting for their right to exist, their enemies wanting them wiped off the face of the Earth and their god-given land handed over to their enemies. Biden and Harris are ridiculously absent here and waffle back and forth. Some ally we are. We've cursed ourselves.
Having said all that, yes, all are capable, but capable to do what? We can choose between good and evil at any time, and we can and should choose God and His ways before it's too late. We're a mess because God is not a central part of the equation as our Founding Fathers established in our Constitution. We're a mess because we, as a whole, have forsaken God. There's a lot of Christians and Jews in America that need to stand up and vote every single Dems out. Sadly, many claiming to be God-fearing, vote for them and give them praise! Personally, I am sickened by it.
Our vote and our voice is our weapon against the evil trying to consume our nation. Think of Queen Esther. She spoke up in a culture that was men only as far as decision making. She expose Haman's evil plot to kill the Jews by telling King Ahasuerus.
I've been praying for a national revival for decades because we are in serious trouble. The signs of Christ's return are on us and coming faster and faster. Today is the day of salvation!
Thank you for sharing, my friend. Sending you my best today as always and best wishes for the 5-7-5.

All I was saying was that whatever side wins, it is clear that this country needs the help of our Heavenly Father. God was kicked out of everything and now it is important that they start inviting Him back again. We need crucial help that only He can provide. We need to make laws He would approve of, not ones that go again the Bible. In light of how I felt about the candidates, I worry about one not capable at all and now the other seems to be in a me me me zone and it worries the heck out of little ole me who is fine at paying the over 300% increase in one year on our property taxes but my voice isn't good anywhere else in this country. That is what my small statement was about in this 5-7-5.
Thank you for reading and your review and for your comments.

Amen! I don't believe that we will ever be the strong nation we once were unless we united once again and I too believe it will take God in our life to do that. Very well said.

Thanks for your kind comments. God has continued to bless us even tho we told him to get out of everything. Can you imagine if He would be allowed back in the White House? It's time to ask God to come back and guide our leaders. Thank you again

I hope I didn't sound too preachy in my reply. This is just such a scary time for America.
Comment from ESOSTINE
The message of your poem is clearly conveyed in this well-penned 5-7-5 writing prompt entry. I do pray that America gets it right this time and be great again. 'If America sneezes, the whole world catches cold'. This common saying is true. May God protect His people. Well done, and good luck in the contest.

So true it's all is in God's hands. God is love, Trump preaches nothing but hate. I hope America makes the right choice. Lies hurt everyone and Trump builds his campaign on them.

Exactly right. Abraham Lincoln was a wise and insightful man.
Ask God back, and not just for what the nation can get out of it, but from a true and genuine commitment to follow His ways, not just tokenism. Well said. Best wishes for the contest.

Yes, the country is divided but we need to focus on the unity of the Church around the world. That's the Body of Christ. No matter what happens here, God still rules. Best wishes in the contest!

This is a very good haiku, it makes you think.
Yes, we need the Lord for wisdom.
You have a nice picture and I like the way you put this together.
Good luck in the contest.

You are so very kind, my friend. What a delight to find your lovely review, kind words and six stars that truly I am honored by. Thank you so very much and I appreciate you more than you could know. God Bless!
Inviting God back into our decision making and putting Him in back in the mainstream of our lives again would have to make a difference in how our country is run.

Ten words and you have described the situation perfectly. I loved both the simplicity of this and the pinpoint accuracy. The perfect reply. But sadly 1o letters short.

Ok, Bob, I'll bite. LOL, which letter am I missing?
But I do thank you with all my heart for the kind words and I am honored to get a six star for this short one.
But which letter am I missing?
I bet you think it should say neither instead of either and move the is to make a statement instead of a question?? That is actually how I had it in the first place but I thought this was more thought provoking. Was that it??
And thank you again, Bob!! Big smiles!!!!

The ten letters I refer to are the minimum letters a reply must contain, I think it's 150. You reply only consisted of 140 letters, that is 10 short of the supposed minimum response. Those numbers may not be precise, there is however an expected minimum response. I often get advised I've not met this requirement.

I could not agree more with your poem. Once we started pushing God out of the equation, turmoil started to ooze into the empty spaces. Too much chaos. Beautifully written. Gretchen
