While living in the tension of the world's imperfection
Locking in the sovereign reign of the King of All Kings
Trusting He'll make right all things
He'll make right all things.....No one is safe from the gods we create....They all turn on us
No one escapes heaven's justice unpaid.....
Have mercy now"

You can't hate those you pray for. Prayer humanizes people.

"Early activists wanted to create a comprehensive “culture of life,” but many of the evangelicals who joined the movement in the late 20th century wanted to save America from secularism and take back the nation for God."

The Catholics had it right! We have to get back to a "culture of life!"

If Jesus came today, we'd kill him in "Christian" America. He would take our power away and we can't abide that just as the Pharisees could not. Many want power over servanthood. The Church today seeks power, not servanthood. Jesus did not seek power while here on Earth, he was a servant. His choosing to die for us should prove that. He didn't have to, he wanted to. We would be wise to do as Jesus did in this time. Yes, we can and should speak the truth to power; and we do that from a place of love, grace, and humility or we will never win them.

Who is telling the truth? That is the question that will be answered in the coming days and weeks. The Lion will come with a roar that will pierce the dark, and Truth IS His name!

Revelation: Your addictions can be your idols. Wow. Mine were for sure!

Yesterday, Patriot Front members were arrested for trying to insite a riot in Coeur d'Alene, Idaho at a Pride Event. I am glad they were arrested too! They came with faces covered much like Antifa (aka the Black Bloc). Things that make you go "hmmmmmm....." Perbaps they are really just birds of the same feather?

Meanwhile, it would seem a group of devout Catholic men and women nearby came with crosses and prayed about this parade from a distance.

My point is this: No matter your opionion of Pride Events, the Spirit of Christ is peaceful and those who represent him are to be peaceful or they do not represent Him at all. They are to have no traffic with violent men (aka Nazis) who disguise their faces and who come to insite riots and harm other image bearers.

Eyes wide open people, eyes wide open.

There is something seriously wrong with this country at it's heart. I feel so politically homeless these days (a subject I will write about this week). I haven't lost my hope. I am waiting on our Hope to come.

I read an article this morning about a man who joined Patriot Front. He had a rough childhood and had been looking for a father figure for many years. He seemed lost and sad. He was arrested in Idaho this past weekend and is one of their leaders. In the course of a few years, he has lost his wife and child, and now his mother. They have exited his life due to this group. He believes he can't leave this group even though this group has taken everything from him and given him nothing good. Pray for people. Many are under great deception and looking for the missing pieces in their lives in places and things that only bring death and destruction. They are looking for shade where there is none. The trees are dead. Pray for people and pray for this nation. The forces of evil in their different forms are taking our men, women, and young boys or girls. Evil is trying to suffocate this great nation. Get on your knees and raise your voices in truth and love!

You know you can be the Gospel and preach the Gospel when you aren't being an ass.

"White Lives Matter has more than 12,000 followers on Telegram, a platform......that has frequently been used for criminal activity such as child pornography and by terror groups including the Islamic State."

I have a Telegram and I am none of those things. I personally know decent people who are on Telegram. Why does everything have to be highjacked?

Groups like these highjack everything good and make every conservative person look like they believe this kind of crap. I'm an Independent and I certainly don't believe it at all! These guys are dangerous and they are not conservative. They hate veterans too as far as I'm concerned. Disrespect at the highests levels!

$4.55 for ethanol, $5.05 for regular gas. $50.40 to fill my tank. They have us over a barrel. Good thing I have a good job. The poor don't have it so well. They can't sustain this.

Love conquers sin. The Bible is clear on the context of sin. However, when we punish people instead of loving them and letting Jesus do the rest, we miss the point of the entire Gospel and the Law prevails. Personally, it's none of my business what other consenting adults do as long as they aren't trying to hurt children. If the Church as a whole stuck to that, we'd be better off.
