Saturday Song: Alice Cooper, "Dead Babies"

In spite of his stage act, Alice Cooper cares about injustices. This song is about a woman who left her toddler at home while she went to work at a bar. And as children will, her daughter got into something deadly on a shelf and died.

Here's the link to the song.

Though some parents either don't care or can't care for their children, we needn't worry about our heavenly Father. As Moses said in Deuteronomy 10:17 and 18 (BBE), "For the Lord your God is God of gods and Lord of lords, the great God, strong in power and greatly to be feared, who has no respect for any man's position and takes no rewards: Judging uprightly in the cause of the widow and of the child who has no father, and giving food and clothing in his mercy to the man from a strange country."

And as we read in the oft-quoted Psalms 68:5 (BBE) he's, "A father to those who have no father, a judge of the widows, is God in his holy place."

But we Christians aren't excused when it comes to caring for widows and orphans. James 1:27 (BBE) admonishes us that, "The religion which is holy and free from evil in the eyes of our God and Father is this: to take care of children who have no fathers and of widows who are in trouble, and to keep oneself untouched by the world."

I'm sure that many women these days have run-away husbands who don't support them. This is all the more reason those who are good caretakers of children should lend a hand.

Provided that Christ doesn't return for us, his children, by Monday, I hope to post about the eternality of hell.
