Fact truths, or ideas

[Continuing the hymn-for-Sundays series]

“There are no absolutes”
– some say:
“just choose whatever suits
– today.
Be happy in your chosen way
and live life as invented play.”

It doesn’t alter truth
 – a jot.
For whether you like it so
– or not,
distorting truth may just prompt sneers
but facts are lost to vain ideas.

You may choose what you like
to trust.
But check what Jesus said
– don’t just
assume that you can well afford    
to leave his words unread, ignored.

There is a God, he does
exist –
sent messages to us
whose gist
is grace and love, he sees our mess
shows how we can escape distress.          Tune: LM

This is so so true. Deep stuff. Profound. There aren't many honest people left, almost like Noah and the Ark.

All you need is the truth, and the truth will set you free.

This business with the electricity is really bad it effects every single thing you can think of, Communication, industry, transport, leisure namit it's terrible. It is amazing how used to it we got and how dependent we are, whithout realising.

Keep well keep on writing! && Nolan

Thank you. We do so notice modern conveniences when they suddenly go wrong. Sorry you are having unreliable electricity, as you say so many things can then be affected. There is a lot of striking over  here, discontent, oh that more would see the first need is that God is and can help, in whatever the difficulties are. The consequences of the war and covid lockdowns on economics is big. Rhiannon
