A Christmas message
To those of faith whatever you call your God
It matters not if you worship each week
If you have not kindness in your heart
If your actions are not like the words that you speak
when you are talking to God.
If you have kindness in your heart
Remember the pet in your care
Does your treatment of it
Match the words that you speak
when you are talking to God.
Do you banish your pet
into the street
and never let it inside
Come rain and snow
where does it go?
When it's cold wet and alone.
Do you leave it some food
but never stay to check
if it is your one that eats
or is it stolen by pests
Or others who are also
finding their own way
because nobody bothered
to care for them today.
We have pets for which to care
the measure of us Is the condition of them
and we will be judged by the way that we share
the kindness in our hearts.
So... It matters not if you worship each week
If you have not kindness in your heart
If your actions are not like the words that you speak
when you are talking to God.
