The poem below was inspired by 2 Timothy 3. I hope it stirs up your heart.
***
Wide eyes only for
Reels and laughs
Clicks and likes
hours spent, excited
it’s fun
scrolling down a never-ending feed.
Dimmed eyes between Bible pages
Yawns and snoozes
Nods and drools
five seconds later, hey,
no happiness, flipping through dry leaves.
Here’s the irony:
Last day’s spirit
Seared conscience
lover of self, pleasure and fun
bored with meditating on the truth.
