Feelings or Facts


The news is ever present -
Hear what happens right away!
Truth beside what’s been made up,
Comments added anyway.

Sly people love to deceive.
Listen - then root out the truth.
It’s hard, but it can be done -
Thoughtful - between age and youth. 

Don’t count on feelings to guide.
Read all you can re: both ways.
Be prayerful - ask God’s wisdom.
Then you’ll have reason to praise.

“Nothing paralyzes our lives like the attitude that things can never change. We need to remind ourselves that God can change things.…If we see only the problems, we will be defeated; but if we see the possibilities in the problems, we can have victory.”   Warren Wiersbe
