Hope and faith

Hope and faith in your life can really keep you afloat. It can keep your mind open to something good that may come. As long as you keep them alive you will have something to strive for for a better life. If you lose your hope or faith it may make things harder to deal with. It may make you give up on what good may come in your future. Keep your chin up and keep these alive in you. Hope and faith are good indeed.

You always try to find where to go.

Eating meat is quite a treat

Each and every part that you eat.

You’ll have to go get another doe.

Most people won’t go that way

They will only sit and pray.

Why the world sets you up this way

To make you starve another day.

When you need what you need to eat

With no money, so you’ll have no treat.

You may give and give to each one

When you don’t have much, to have fun.

Hunger is something very real

Scrounging for each and every meal.

When you hunt it’s not so much for fun

The meat is most important when you’re done.

People who hunt only for sport

Leave things after shot and come up short.

People who hunt just because

Should be busted by the fuzz.

If you’re really in need to feed

It should be ok as long as you’re not full of greed.

Whatever you choose for your family

Abusing a child is what some people do

It sounds ugly, but its true.

Children are precious and not to be hurt

You don’t want to treat them like dirt.

They are so young and innocent

Doesn’t matter if your nerves are spent.

When mad, give yourself a little time

Just wait for the bells to chime.

Abuse can be as simple as a little shout

They go away with a big pout.

It can also be oh so sad

The life they wish they had always had.

You should love your children at all times

When you don’t show love, it’s a crime.

People say a good spanking is abuse

It all depends on how hard you choose.

Abused children may turn out the same

Abusing their own may be just a game.

Give yourself a little credit

Your life, you can always edit.

Abuse can make a child turn sour

It can get worse by the hour.

Sometimes abuse can make someone die

It can be stopped but they won’t even try.

Abusing children doesn’t work well

Puts them in a different kind of shell.

Treat your kids the way you should

Then they will be nothing but good.

Give them all you can

It’s really Gods plan.

Beating kids is quite a sin
