| "This guy has to be a nazi" |
Nothing seems quite fair these days. Everyone is always crying about inequities. The mind of many is warped. Why do the rich get to have so much money and I'm just a broke fool? Marriage is unfair, hiring practices are unfair, life is unfair. It becomes more and more unfair as we become more of a lawless society. Order is enforced from the top down and anyone who desires to function in this society had best lay low when it comes to speaking out against the evils of society. I've watched people be destroyed because they spoke up or spoke out against homosexuality (Anita Bryant), against abortion (Randall Terry), against corruption (Pat Buchanan and Pat Robertson), and many more. Some have been assassinated for doing what's right. The masses of society in America are rather passive and generally follow the orders the TV gives them. That's the big shepherd of America. The mass media. People don't like looking stupid and so if all the smart people believe something they don't want to stand out and think for themselves and look stupid. Pride is what drives most people. The fear of being different or singled out. The few who have stood up boldly for right and truth have been crushed generally, because the masses do not support what's right or what's true. They support what's popular and pleasing to them. Like no fault marriage, like abortion on demand, like letting homosexuals run entertainment and politics. Someone decent could've been in charge, but people don't like decency anymore. They want corruption. But when it affects them then they cry. And wonder why. Why are things going so wrong for me today? There's a disconnect between actions and results that eludes people. They can't see the connection. The blind are leading the blind and both will fall into the ditch and they're dragging everyone else into the ditch with them. Whenever I do listen to what's happening in the world today and I have to listen to the politicians, you know the actors playing a role, and I have to listen to their lies and smooth words and know the opposite is what's going on, it makes me cringe. But I don't get mad anymore. I realize I am powerless as a flea in comparison to the Powers That Be. I mostly just ignore the world and the events around me and just pray and do what I can do to be ready for whatever may come. A guy like me never had a chance at a normal life, but God knows that and He has taken care of me, even when I did the wrong things. And as it is, I've had a better life than most people on this planet get to experience. It's been real. He is merciful and as Jesus said, if you lose your life for my sake you will save it. Nothing is this world is worth losing your head over, except for having Jesus as my Savior. Not having a real chance in life is one thing, but realizing that this world has always been corrupt helps me understand that God has always been our only help in a time of need. It will never be fair until God returns to balance the scales. If we try to take things into our own hands and try to set things right, we'll only end up hurting ourselves. Vengeance is the Lords. Best thing to do is what Jesus said to do. Spread the good news and let the Holy Spirit change whatever needs changing. I hope I can do my part.
