Shadows of Modern Injustice (06/06/'24) -Statement

Shadows of Modern Injustice In the deep shadows where wolves in power tread, they feast on lives, their greed a crimson red. For gold, they tear the flesh of hope apart, leaving the poor with broken dreams and hearts. The prophets, with tongues of guile and lies, cast false visions beneath darkened skies. They claim the voice of God in every breath, yet speak no truth, paving paths to death. The common folk, with hardened hearts, oppress, crushing the poor beneath their cruel duress. The needy are robbed, the foreigner denied, injustice reigns where empathy has died. In modern times, these ancient woes persist, corruption’s grip too strong to just resist. The leaders, prophets, and the common man all play their parts in this deceitful plan. Yet hope remains in hearts that dare to fight, against the dark, to bring forth truth and light. For justice, mercy, and love to take their place, in every heart, in every time and space. Pastor Steven G. Lee (June 6, 2024)
