No that I am anywher near a bible thumping, perfect person in his eyes, but I do make an effort, and I recognize that I fail, and fail miserably sometimes...
I believe God wants to bestow so much upon this country and its people, both grace aqnd blessings, more than we can imagine...
But until we the people show a genuine, humble approach to our beliefs, do what we can to restore the VIRTUE in ourselves, and those we elect into office to represent us, how can we honestly expect to be a blessed nation???
We know a reckoning is coming, and we might not be able to stop any additional, self-destructive future before us...
I still believe we can correct the problem by understanding that we need to put this in God’s hands and have the faith to let him guide us out of these troubled times...
I admmit that I am at times very distracted and lose focus of the need to be a virtuous person...Life is not an easy road, the challenges before us are great, but we can do things as individuals to get our own houses in order, and inspire others to do the same...Its a start, and one that is probably a good thing to do regardless...
I tend to shoot from the hip and try to not offend others when I get on these rants, but these are things that have been bugging me for a long time, and are just now starting to manifest themselves in the serious statements I make when the time comes...
I recognize that I have a long way to go, and I also believe I will not be a perfect example, or deserving of any considerations, blessings or grace...But I will do what I can when and where I can to bring what comes from the heart to others and maybe say the right thing at the right time for someone else...
