Leadership

People dying, families are hurting, marriages are suffering, education is hemorrhaging, teachers are stressing, countries are reeling, pandemic is ravaging, election is nearing.

As the big day draws near, I decided to share this poem hoping it puts things in perspective for somebody out there. If the energy and attention used to select a physical person in this election was to shift towards choosing an eternal king who reigns eternally, most if not all earthly issues would dissipate. As you cast your votes on earth, remember there's a supreme ruler in heaven who control the universe and everything in it.

Leadership
 Who’s going to steer this volatile ship?
 This fractured US vessel
 Floating on rough seas

Oceans of uncertainties
 Marginalized Citizens have been surfing

On racist waves for centuries

History snitches that all former captains
 Of this boat have led it with bias agendas
 And a flawed navigation system that have led
 The country to abysmal destinations
 Disjointed from the original blueprint
 Away from the kingdom compass
 That guarantees love and justice for all
 Whether popular or electoral college votes
 Voters must know that God vetoes them all
 Because the government is on His shoulders
 As God’s people go to the polls with discernment
 rest assured that homeland security

Is beyond the next human being

Who will reside in the White House.
