Walking......Skipping Actually

to the beat of a different drummer. That's me. I can't tell you how many times I watch something on t.v. and just shake my head and think I really don't belong in this world. I belong in a world like the one in the movie, Pleasantville, or living with John Boy and his family or the beaver. I hate what this world has become. I hate the sex, greed, lust, violence and general intolerance of our times. I hate to watch the breakdown in society that is happening more and more in our cities and I hate to see the breakdown in families that is surely the basis for what is happening in society. Now I'm no saint, far from it, and my family is what would be considered a broken one with an absentee father and a single mother but I raised my kid with values and morals. Neither he, nor I, would go and pillage and destroy property if something happened in our neighborhood if we thought it was wrong. We didn't do it in the Eric Garner case, which was in our own backyard. What purpose does it serve to destroy the livelihood of local businesses? What is your message if you're burning down a home for the aged and infirm? What the hell is the point of cutting fire hoses?? My son saw a woman on t.v. that was walking around the Baltimore area looking for diapers for her babies, one of which was in a stroller and the other toddling beside her. What is burning down the CVS, where she could have gotten diapers, going to do for the cause of Freddie Gray? Absolutely, positively nothing.

Society really needs a wake up call. They need to return to two things which are the basis for everything in life - God and family. Gone are the times when a family would pray together and read the Bible. Gone are the days when we would sit at the table at the end of the day and eat dinner and talk to each other. We need to return to those things. We need God in our lives. We need to live our lives with conviction and faith in Him. Do what Jesus would do. He sure as hell would not burn down a CVS or loot a liquor store. Wake up people. Stop letting Satan make decisions for you. Stop doing what Satan would do.


Peace,
