Something is wrong in this world. I
know you can feel it. Even the most optimistic of people seem to be
scratching their heads and asking what is going on? It seems that
evil, on a massive scale, is gaining more and more control over the
events in this world and I am truly saddened. Worse is I am saddened
by people who could do something about it sitting silently by or are
using it as some sort of political tool to point fingers at their
collective opponents to earn brownie points with their constituents.
Politics and power have become the
driving force behind our government and really all the governments of
the world, corporations are the ones writing the laws and our so
called representatives reap the benefits.
I watched a news clip out of Georgia,
that a friend has posted on FB, where this kind of thing was going
on. They had Sheriff dept. deputies there to keep the news crew out
but the bottom line was that they essentially caught the politicians
voting on legislation that the corporations wanted and then money was
given to the politicians through a different agency that's supposed
to be some sort of “education fund” for the politicians. I am
sure that none of this surprises you, what does surprise me is that
more news organizations haven't picked up on this, this is the kind
of stuff they live for and you know that if it's happening in one
state it's likely happening in all of them not to mention the Federal
government.
If this is not enough, Five service
members gunned down by a radical Jihadist all because of his
perverted view of his religion. Whats the governments answer? No ,not
to defend themselves ,but to not wear their uniforms to work. Worse
yet is that the president says almost nothing about it in his weekly
Saturday address. I guess I know where service members really stand
with this bunch. Then again what should you expect from them when
veterans are treated like crap at the VA.
Next we have, Nine people killed by a
radical white supremacist ,while they were in church at a bible
study, all because they were black. Do we blame the shooter? No, of
course not, we instead blame a flag. I personally have never
witnessed a flag killing anyone, never mind with a gun, but according
to our learned friends on the left and some on the right, it's the
confederate battle flags fault. At least they aren't blaming the gun
this time.
All over the world; Thousands of
Christian, Jews and Muslim as well as other minorities have been
raped ,pillaged, sold into slavery ,and brutally murdered by radical
Islam and it seems we, as in those of us here in the US, would rather
argue as to who can marry who, or sue each other because our feeling
have been hurt by folks who don't agree with us. Do you honestly
think that in the end of days God is going to care one iota about
that? Or is He going to care more about what we did or didn't do to
relieve the suffering? Sadly we don't have enough stomach in this
country to fight the things that really need fighting over.
I don't have a solution. I wish I did.
Seems that anything I can say falls on deaf ears or on to people,
who, just like me, have no real power or clout.
The only thing I can do is pray. That's
what I intend to do,and leave the politics to someone else, I simply
can't stomach it any more.
Perhaps when a day comes that we either
have real leadership or Messiah comes to usher in a new era I will
write of politics but for now all of it totally sickens me.
I will pass on a bit of warning though
if we continue on this path that we are on, and I am speaking world
wide ,as the nations rattle their swords at each other and prepare
for a massive war ,the bible makes it quite clear whats going to
happen;
Behold,
the Lord maketh the earth empty and maketh it waste, and
turneth it upside down, and scattereth abroad the inhabitants
thereof.
2 And
it shall be, as with the people, so with the priest; as with the
servant, so with his master; as with the maid, so with her mistress;
as with the buyer, so with the seller; as with the lender, so with
the borrower; as with the taker of interest, so with the giver of
interest to him.
4 The
earth mourneth and fadeth away; the world languisheth and fadeth
away; the haughty people of the earth do languish.
5 The
earth also is defiled under the inhabitants thereof, because they
have transgressed the laws, changed the ordinance, broken the
everlasting covenant.
6 Therefore
hath the curse devoured the earth, and they that dwell therein are
desolate; therefore the inhabitants of the earth are burned, and few
men left. Isa 24:1-6
Shalom,
