How has our society come to this point? Our news is filled with tragic and heartbreaking stories of innocent babies being slaughtered for profit, the constant drumbeat of discord between certain elements of the various ethnic groups, and the ever growing threat of those terrorists who seek to destroy the fabric of our society.
We are, according to The Bible, a fallen people. We are in need of a redeemer, and we were given one in Jesus Christ. Who will take up their cross and follow Him daily? Until we, as those who have chosen to follow Him, add some depth to our faith we will struggle. If we, of all nations and ethnicities, would look back to Genesis chapter 1 verse 26, "then God said, Let Us make man in our image, according to Our likeness. . .", and take it to heart I am convinced very little will change for the better.
May we each look at those around us and see past the flaws and the differences, and begin to see that image, that God - likeness in us all. If we can begin to do this then perhaps we can begin to see a degree of restoration and healing within the land.
If not, then I believe we will further sink into very dark days much like those found in the book of Judges.
Choose Christ, choose a better tomorrow, get fit spiritually, physically, and relationally remembering "With God We Will. . ."
