Pulling the Blankets Over My Head.

 Pulling the Blankets Over My Head.

 

Ok, my daughter just introduced me to project 2025 and some of the garbage in that interesting document(s). Sounds like rural America is going to the dogs; women don’t own the rights to their own bodies (not sure they ever have, understand); and the tax system is just another type of give me, give me, give me. She was concerned that we would be going backwards toward the 50s when women were unable to have credit cards, bank accounts, or ownership of properties, but that particular part did not come up in the area presented on the fact checker site. Honestly, America has done some pretty dumb things and folks have come up with some “solutions” that are almost worse than the problems, but from what was posted online, this is one project that needs a ditch. Sometimes it is an actual relief to believe that the old woman won’t be around much longer.

 

Now, all that worrying mess put aside, reading in Galatians today reminded me that we have a certain mindset to work on: Gal. 5:14-15. For all the law is fulfilled in one word, even in this; Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself. (14) But if ye bite and devour one another, take heed that ye be not consumed one of another. (15) Democrats and Republicans or Independents or whatever! Don’t stand around and lie about each other and find fault unless it can be truly proven by testimony of two or more. Listen. Think. “Let all bitterness, and wrath, and anger, and clamor, and evil speaking, be put away from you, with all malice: And be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ’s sake hath forgiven you.” Eph. 4:31-32

 

If our lives were lived in truth, in being capable of giving our word and not being duplicitous, we would be a stronger nation. Unless we turn as individuals to God’s truth and His way, we as a people, as a nation, will fall. May God forgive us!

 

Rest well, my friends. You are loved.
