Dislocated Limbs

 
Disorganized by the dominance of human pride,
Functioning in God’s perfect harmony fails to coincide,
Out of joint the body lie,
Dislocated limbs fall away and die,
Just so, they are too stubborn to know,
With God’s truth only are we able to grow,
Our food is to do the will of our Lord,
We come armed well with helmet, shield, and sword.
Lord, make us perfect in solely doing your will,
Unite our hearts that only Your desires we instil.

Now may the God of peace who brought up our Lord Jesus from the dead, that great Shepherd of the sheep, through the blood of the everlasting covenant, make you complete in every good work to do His will, working in you what is well pleasing in His sight, through Jesus Christ, to whom be glory forever and ever. Amen. Hebrews 13:20, 21

Beautiful poem Shannie but a gloomy picture of how Christianity is now. My question is what's the solution? How do we get people to start cooperating to fulfill God's desire of us being unified?

A sad commentary on the condition of the Body today. Thanks and may this spur us on to love and good deeds.

Shalom Shannie, May we always follow the will of HaShem through our Messiah Yeshua and pray for those with dislocated limbs. So many people let the pride of life get in the way of their relationship to G-d and other believers.
