LOOKING FOR CONVERSATION

Hello reader… Whatever your case is this day, I hope that by the end of this short note you’ll find some inspiration, some hope, and that you know I DO LOVE YOU.

I’m going to give it to you strait, I’m free styling this note. In other words, I’m just going to start writing see what happens.

First, let me ask you a question… Are you were you want to be? Do you feel trapped? Is life exciting to you? What’s going on in your lives? I want to know more about you… drop me a line, tell me the good and the bad, besides, one can’t have a rainbow without the rain, right?

For me, I’m feeling great about life. I see nothing but an awesome future. Sure, I may fall off cliff, become disabled, have a bone burst out of my leg from playing a football game, I may even lose someone I adore with all my heart to something we will all face DEATH, or I even may be attacked by a pack of wild elephants alone in a jungle… regardless, I know that whatever it is, God has my back. He is there all the time, even when I wish he wasn’t. I mean why would anyone follow me to the restroom? Regardless, he is protecting and shaping me into his image. I love life, and I love the trials that come with it. There is no trial, no task too large for our God to conquer. All we need to do is put our faith in him, but should we put our faith in America?

Yes, I cant help but to bring politics into the picture. Besides my hero Jesus was the greatest politician EVER, and I bet there are a few on here who want to respond against this thought, and I beg you please do; nevertheless, I’m curious as to survey any who read this, what is America? What are your beliefs? Do you believe we are on the fast track down, or are we moving in the ‘right’ direction?

My thoughts are simple: If we don’t follow the God of truth, the God of the Bible, we are doomed for destruction.

I used to live in a place were Christians had to hide, were some were afraid to sing because of the government sanctions and tyranny. These Christians if caught could disappear, be imprisoned, or executed.

I hear about this progressive/ socialist movement in America, and it all seems to be fact based, but have we gone too far? I’m not sure.

I’m an optimist… I say no way, we are who we are, and we must do the right thing no matter what, truth will set us free…. Hit me back with any insights, I love to learn and hear other perspectives…. And remember as Reggie White once put it, “God places the heaviest burden on those who can carry its weight.”
