From the Heart: Random thoughts for Aug 30, 2016

My heart aches this evening…
perhaps with too much ‘outside noise’
but, nonetheless, it aches.
It seems [to me] that our nation has gotten increasingly more violent.
It seems [to me] that the majority of US citizens have been bitten ‘by the bug’ called apathy….
And,
it seems [to me] that very few care to leave their ‘comfort zones’ to at least attempt to make a better world for tomorrow’s generation.
Have we, as a society, really become so self-centered? The word ‘love’ is used endlessly these days but what exactly is its meaning in 2015? ‘Love’ is an action word yet never has a word been so rapidly reduced to mean nothing as it has today.
And, as a Christian woman, am I expected to be silent and ‘turn the other cheek’ as I witness evil increase? Oooooh…. I think not!
My mind concentrates on the fact of myself — among thousands of other US citizens — having no health insurance though before government control we’ve never been uninsured…
My mind concentrates on the senseless shootings with the most recent being this past week’s Texas execution killing of Sgt. William Kennard,
and the ‘live shooting’ in Virginia: Alison Parker, 24, and cameraman Adam Ward, 27 — yes, let us remember to name all victims!
yet, ‘life’ goes on as more and more are desensitized to the madness of our times….
And then I think of the horrific shooting in Charleston’s Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal Church… a Church I personally attended; a Church that welcomed all, a Church unexpectedly attacked and raped by evil….
And I ‘think’ more…. I am convinced that the shootings has nothing to do with ‘gun rights’ but more to an over-drugged society that easily ‘snaps’ into violence. More and more minors are prescribed prozac among other ‘more potent drug cocktails’… most of which would drive sane adults into insanity.
I no longer recognize this land ‘of the free’… and our ‘leaders’ are the instigators of the hatred and violence with most too blind to see the ‘trap’ they’ve entered orchestrated by those ‘who have’….
Is ‘evil’ new? No, of course not! But evil and decadence is now blatantly out in the open over-riding ‘goodness’. As we’ve warned years ago, our nation has officially transformed into ‘a God-less nation’ where everything that was once wrong is right and visa versa… something most [of us] believer’s should be very uncomfortable and angry with!
These days satanists are pretty darn brazen and are openly ‘coming out of the closet’ wanting their ’15 minutes of fame’ just like everyone else…. being a satanist is no longer ‘shocking’ is it?…. Actually, they’re marketing themselves to be ‘pretty cool’ which is an attraction for younger kids. Mmmm….. and just like ‘the atheists, satanists think they have the right to interfere and try to stop Christian holidays provoking their influence … Oh, my how these people get agitated with the Nativity scene…. And ‘we Christians’ are supposed to remain quiet and submit to their threats? Ahhh…. apart from being pompous idiots, they must be very insecure egotists to think Christians will be intimidated by them! … we are not!
And how many Christians are currently under attack because they will not submit to things contrary to their religious faith while also getting fined? Has this nation lost it’s mind? Oh, no folks, no can do! We, as Christians, have just as many rights as satanists, atheists, pro-choice folks, and on and on and on and on… HOW DARE THEY TRY TO INTIMIDATE AND HARDBALL US!
And speaking of pro-choice… I seem to remember ‘slippery Hillary’ state, “… that ‘religious beliefs ‘have to be changed’ on abortion.” Well, okay, Ms. Clinton, but here’s the deal: though you proclaim to have grown up ‘with the Bible’, the thing is this: God never changes. He is the same yesterday, today and tomorrow so… let us be clear on that! If abortion, as is, in your opinion, a ‘woman’s right’, than bring it up with God because in His world, abortion is murder. One abortion is one too many and how many has been performed since 1973s Roe vs Wade? 57,762,169 and counting! Imagine 57,762,169 dead babies piled on top of each other to better understand such heartless savagery…. And women are still calling abortion ‘a woman’s right’? As a woman, I am outraged by such a statement yet deeply saddened at the same time for society’s utter ignorance.
And how does this affect our children? For one thing, we’ve fewer role models while exposing our children to an abundance of evil and confusion! And now, thanks to our ‘progressive new society’, children as young as 5 years-old are are being prepped for transgender surgery… yup, hormones and all! It’s chic ‘to be different’ today, isn’t it, even before one ‘understands’…. Merchandise in upscale store, Abercrombie & Fitch, sold ‘pole dancing’ stripper poles for toddlers subliminally ‘sexualizing’ our kids with many other products just as seductive currently on the market [click here for a quick peak] …. While our nation is on a rapid decline in every way possible, we do get a 5 star rating for successfully robbing our children of their innocence…. and we wonder why the suicide rate among young people is alarmingly high. The bottom line is that we’re failing our kids tremendously while blinded by selfishness.
As they say in war: ‘bring it on’ cause the time has come for Christians to leave the ‘upper room’ and defend what is right openly and without trepidation!
To date Christian patriots have warned, begged and tried to ‘reason’ with the uninformed, but, where is it written that Christians are fools? Nowhere! And, contrary to what some believe, there is a thing called ‘righteous anger’ and that fire’s been lit!
Violence? Racial divide? Gender confusion? All comes from God-lessness… and being silent is a betrayal to the very God many of us profess to follow.
The call for ALL Christians to unite is NOW… our task is urgent and only in solidarity can we gain back what was has been taken from us – #silenceisbetrayal… Join ACCRM today at: http://americanchristiancivilrightsmovement.com
PS: We’re ‘so done being silent’ and do intend to be heard so help us God!
