My bride told me last night at supper. "What did you expect? You are the one that keeps telling me that the Kingdom of Jesus is not of this world. Why are you surprised to see whose kingdom the world really is?"
Perhaps because I had faith in our leaders to not travel down that dark road again. Perhaps because I wanted some shallow comfort here. Either way it was because I forgot the true meaning of the Theology of the Cross.
The world will hate those who belong to God, because man prefers darkness to light. Man wants to full fill his desires and not worry about the consequences. In here, it was putting in motion a way of eliminating the economic drain of the "unfit".
But I realize that once you start defining who is and is not worthy of life, the road leads one place. This country has been in its twilight for a long time. May God have mercy, but I think the night is soon going to be here. May God give us the strength to persavere.

I believe this is true. An important lesson I personally have learned now is that no matter how much I love this country, our hope is not in our country or any government. Although we must stand up and fight for righteousness, ultimately God is the only One we can look to. We all must choose this day whom we will serve.
