Stand up for God!

i was never one to dabble in these things
but this is too much to keep quiet about!

so much for peace and harmony
so much for being united as one
so much for compromise and understanding
so much for acceptance and freewill
so much for respect!
so much for freedom of speech

for goodness sake
stop the darn attacks already!
you’re only making fools of yourselves
to the entire world
showing how childish you are over the subject
you should be embarrassed about yourselves
there are better ways to deal with things, you know?!

if you’re not happy,
just deal with it
or find other means to deal with it!
dont take it out on the places of worship
if you have no respect for the people
at least have respect for the higher One!
you dont see us retaliating, do you?!

So Catholics out there,
this is not a time to be taking down rosaries
or hiding away in fear
stand up, be courageous!
be proud that you are standing up for God!
trust in the Lord and He will see us through.

do not retaliate with force or anger
do not stoop down to their level
to do the same as they did us
instead hope in the Lord and pray for them
that they may have open minds
and that they realize how much more damage they are doing instead!

Give us courage Lord!
through these troubled times!
