Greetings My Friend, The warning are out there, I see them and hear them on the news and on the internet. One singer states "Lock and load America." The Prime Minister of Israel warns us that not only the LGBT community has been attacked but groups around the world are being attacked from movie theaters to schools, to many other places. When an attack happens everyone starts saying "not all Muslims...." True not all but the radicals are a force to take notice of and stop the "not all" talk. We can't see who are the good guys and who are the bad guys so we need to be wary. Many times we hear when a Muslim attacks a community we hear "They were such a nice person." We can say the same for the illegals, not all are bad. My question is how do we know who is who? Having them enter our country legally would help us to easier identify the good illegals. What about the illegals who are being told one thing only to be brought into our country under oppression? Is that fair? I do not think so. Are we listening to God? I do not think so. He tells us that trouble is coming often. He tells us He will pronounce judgement and we believe we are listening while all around us we go about our lives as we always have. How many Germans believed they were doing the right thing rounding up Jews and sending them to death camps? Many Christians justified themselves. We look back in horror on those years at what inhumanity was done. Are we listening America? Have we learned from history or are we in the throws of repeating it again? We are leaving God out of our national lives so we do not offend and we worry because why? Should we not be more concerned about offending God? If we as a nation stood by our founding and our Christian heritage then we would be seeking God's will. If we were seeking God's will we would be seeking the highest good of our people instead of lining our pockets thinking that our power and might will always sustain us. We would treat the LGBT community with compassion while disagreeing. We would not seek to destroy them. We seek to stop abortion not because we are not concerned for women but because women are hurt having an abortion. Again I see the problems women who have abortions face, such as depression, a higher rate for breast cancer facts that get reported and glossed over. A good number of people in the LGBT community suffer with extreme unhappiness, the domestic abuse in their group is very high. As a loving nation should we not seek to help them deal with these problems instead of being concerned about their getting married? Are they counseled? Are our straight couples counseled on marriage? Why do we not have classes anymore teaching young people how to manage a home, cooking, caring for their family and shop teaching them to work on cars, build things with wood? Not all young people are college material and our nation needs a variety of workers giving us a well rounded work force. God is teaching me to dehydrate food, through Youtube, to relearn how to sew and to plant fruits and vegetables. I have learned most of these skills in the past, found myself so caught up in making a living, going to school and raising a family that I left these skills behind. He is warning us and are we asking to be forgiven, attempting to come back to a simpler way of life? Those that listen are? Those that believe will work at paring down their lives so they will be able to live more simply. When the judgement comes we will all say that God had warned us. May the peace of Christ be with you.
