GAL 5: 22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, long-suffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, <br /> <br /> <br />What if? <br /> <br />What if we were incapable of love? <br />Or to see the beauty in a snow white dove, <br />What if this life simply held no joy, <br />No playful shenanigans of a baby boy, <br />What if in this life we had no peace? <br />Just a greed to own the Golden Fleece; <br />What if mankind harbored only blindness, <br />No long-suffering and zero kindness; <br />What if we just lived and died, <br />Were never truthful, but always lied. <br />What if in this life there was no hope, <br />Just a scaffolding and hangman’s rope <br />What if we possessed no goodness; <br />No faithfulness nor loving-kindness <br />What if we spent our lives in fears <br />Of addicts, drunks and sexual queers, <br />What if we had lived in the time of Lott, <br />God destroyed Gomorrah, but mankind forgot. <br />What if I tell you “Its now taking place, <br />This world degenerates at diabolical pace” <br />What if Sodom and Gomorrah returns as ‘old sod’, <br />Again man will witness… the awesome wrath of God! ! !<br /><br />Alf Hutchison<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/what-if-170/
