"If Love is the Only Answer"

By Rodriguez A. Peake

If love is the only answer ...

Why are there so any questions? Why are there so many lessons in life to live and learn, like fire burns and life is truly a blessing, if love is the only answer?

If love is the only answer ...

Then how did hate ever become a choice? And how did evil ever get such a loud voice? Or why did I sit by the still waters and still hear so much noise, if love is the only answer?

If love is the only answer ...

Then why in your heart do you wanna hurt me so bad? And why do I wanna hurt you? And why don't we both see the same truth when only one God created both you and me?

Why do we do the things we do?

If love is the only answer ...
