If I Could Shout And Move About With Written Words


I would zoom around, outward bound, wherever justice or injustice are found, and shout out the good... blot out the bad.

Common Sense Commentary: At 86 my ministry is limited to old friends, strangers at the door or store, prayer, and this blog. Written words have become my primary outreach and mission in this old world. I could preach to Mrs. Blair all day but she would tire of that and besides, she preaches to me about as much as I preach to her. We actually spend a great deal of time sharing God's word with each other, but that is not fulfilling the Great Commission to "go into all the world". So, like it or not, you are my world ministry congregation and the object of my ministerial affection, and you can always delete me at your pleasure and God and I will still love you. Thanks for dropping by. RB

If I could shout and move about with written words
I would write a shout against injustice in every dark den and crack where its ugly head is raised; I would shout it, crush it and hush it with a sledge of justice words.

If I could shout and move about with written words
I would loudly expose cowardice, shame it and blame it for injustice, hate and tyranny. I would reward and encourage courage, promote it, vote it, devote it, and never sugar coat it.

If I could shout and move about with written words
I would heal hatred with love words, with prayer and kindness words, but if not, attack it, not ignore it, but implore it or deplore it and if possible restore it to harmless, peaceful words.

If I could shout and move about with written words
I would give generously to the generous, the innocent needy, the sincere and the decent, But withhold from it and penalize selfishness, greed and hateful grudging words.

If I could shout and move about with written words
I would reward the voice of concern, and courageous souls of action in the face of fear, but punish blind indifference and callous, self centered, self serving words.

If I could shout and move about with written words
I would sound an alarm, resist and attack all tyrants and their flunky stooges with death words, but love and defend their innocent victims with protection and rescue words ....

If I could shout and move about with written words. RB
