THE HORSEMEN COMETH
OR ARE THEY ALREADY HERE
Is it just me, or does anyone else think that the Horsemen are here now.
Or have they always been here,
just waiting for humanity to descend into so much despair
that their time has come to intervene and wreak havoc.
Are we dooming ourselves by turning on each other and
being mean spirited
Showering hate and disgust at the innocent
who are just trying to live day by day
just by being a living breathing being.
Do we realize that we are dooming ourselves to the hastening of
said apocalypse.
We devastate forests, we hunt poor unaware animals and now
we have turned against each other, at a time when we should be closer to
each other.
Although we have always been turning against each other
Human nature?. We have a choice.
We have free will.
Unless that choice is forcibly taken from us.
Have we lost our minds.
Are we allowing the demons of hell to rule our thoughts and actions.
The Horsemen are poised:
WHITE HORSE
The white horseman has a bow and a crown. It has come to conquer, are we becoming easy to conquer?
RED HORSE
The red horseman has a great sword and is given the power to take peace from the earth and that we should kill one another.
BLACK HORSEMAN
This rider has a pair of balances. He will bring FAMINE to the land, and will care more for the oil and wine than for human life.
THE PALE HORSE
"AND THE NAME OF HIM THAT SITTETH UPON HIM IS DEATH, AND
HELL FOLLOWS WITH HIM"
This rider is is given power to kill one fourth of the earth with sword, and hunger and death.
When this pale rider is unleashed, he will have the power of all the horsemen combined.
APOCALYPSE
Believe or not believe, it is a choice.
Are we our own horsemen,
Is it a METAPHOR for us hurting each other.
We can err on the side of caution.
Do as little harm as possible to others.
When the roll is called up yonder,
Try to be there.
Even if up yonder is right here on earth.
Hearts.
