Just a short reminder that most of the dramatic events making the news are not what they seem. However, I suppose by now you’ve discerned that whatever we are supposed to take as “terrorism” is coming to a theater near you. That is, the drama will be spread across Europe and North America. Probably a few other places, but in one form or another, with one mask or another, the time has come for amping up the fear factor.
I won’t try to bury this under a long discussion of who is doing what and why. All you need to know is that it’s very real violence and death and destruction, but it’s being guided by the people we elected to office in one way or another. It’s your tax money paying for it. I’ve already made note that The Cult made sure we would not be allowed to have good and decent people in government. Only criminals are allowed to run for office or be appointed. Despite appearances to the contrary, the whole thing is staged.
This is our “normal” and we need to get past that in our minds so we can discern the hand of God and exploit things for His glory. As much as possible, shed your fears and face the task so you can finish and go Home to be with the Lord. Nothing else you can do will be half so much a blessing to those left behind.
Following Him is truly the best thing any of us can do. Nothing and no one should have our attention except for that relationship and helping our family (not just blood), our friends and our community. By staying within the boundaries He has blessed us with and staying out of the rest, we will find much more peace in our lives.
