Reality of Our Society

There is so much evil in this world.  Words cannot describe how much my heart breaks for the victims of the Colorado shooting.  In times like this I do question God, I will be honest.  In the end my faith is strong and I know that evil does lurk and we are in a war here.  But still, incidents like this leave me speechless.  There was a school shooting a few months ago that deeply affected me as well.  After that incident I wrote the following and it once again sums up my feelings the best way that I can.

"The Reality of Our Society"
What has happened to our society?
That kids killing kids has become reality 
Instead of loving one another
We choose to bully our brothers
We walk past familiar faces
But we never examine their individual cases
So obsessed with our own lives
That we do not see the warning signs
We preach to be fishers of men
But yet we are busy indulging in our own sin
Never stopping to think
That our friend may be on the brink
One bad day could end it all
And leave us wishing that we only saw
For the Lord sought after the lost
But we are scared of what that would cost
Yet He asks us to be a city upon a hill
So that darkness will cease and light will fill
To seek out those who feel all alone
And let them see that they are not on their own
Amidst the evil they face day after day
There He is telling us we do not have to pay
For the bill has been taken care of
Paid by His son out of selfless love
We should beg our friends to open their hearts
That He will accept even their worst parts
To put down that gun
And find a new life through the Son
For we are the Body of Christ
Together we can take over evil with a heist
We do not have to live our lives as slaves to sin
But instead we can stand up and fight like men
Encourage our brothers to join our cuase
And that they will see a love that does not pause
For they will no longer seek to destroy
But beg their Lord to let them deploy
For this is the society that was invisioned
But in reality it has become imprisioned
Friends we were all lost and now have been found
So I beg you to earnestly look around
This love we live in was meant to be shared
For that is ultimately why we were spared
