Haiku of warning and encouragement
Signs all around us
in the sun, moon and the stars.
and here upon earth
The planet will shake
seeking freedom from bondage
to power and fear.
They will call lies truth
and truth lies; brazen, barefaced.
Fear will rule the day.
The Son of Man comes.
When you see these things happen
stand, be courageous.
Leaves on the fig tree
tell us that summer is near;
so, too, the kingdom.
Live well, be ready.
Free your hearts from earthly cares.
Do not be caught out.
Troubles are coming
on you and ev’ryone else;
pray you have the strength.
