Psalm 73:24-26<br /> Your wisdom will be my guide, and later you will put me in a place of honour. Whom have I in heaven but you? and having you I have no desire for anything on earth. My flesh and my heart are wasting away: but God is the Rock of my heart and my eternal heritage.<br /> <br /> Romans 10:14-15<br /> But how can they call on him to save them unless they believe in him? And how can they believe in him if they have never heard about him? And how can they hear about him unless someone tells them? ....That is why the Scriptures say, &ldquo;How beautiful are the feet of messengers who bring good news!&rdquo;


Affliction smiles as sorrow claims all men
Faults lend men prestige while virtue succumbs
Outlasting Russian nights be acts of sin
And nightmares and reality are one
Her ears cannot outrun the demon's mirth
Her heart has sunk colder then Caesar's grave
Stars conceal their light, darkness hugs the earth
And Calibans no longer dwell in caves
Hordes of Judases kiss their holy kill
Sell their souls and condemn themselves to die
Yet those who anticipate paradise fear
To face death. Justice has given its last cry
As Shakespeare says, "Lord, what fools mortals be"
For they view these wrongs with apathy.

I have noticed that so many current teens are willing to ignore the injustice and suffering in the world. However,the problems do not go away if you close your eyes.
