If we were to put aside,
all our hate and malice
we would not come across
as so cold and callous.
If we were not filled,
with pride and envy
we would come across
as genuine and friendly.
If we were to behave,
less hypocritical
we would come across
not so judgmental.
If we were not always,
speaking of things evil
we would come across
as being more peaceful.
If we were to crave,
the earnest, true milk
our words would be
as smooth as silk!
~~~~~~
1 Peter 2:1-2
Wherefore laying aside all malice,
and all guile, and hypocrisies,
and envies, and all evil speakings,
As newborn babes,
desire the sincere milk
of the word, that ye may
grow thereby:
