Will our grandkids save a Nation?
It is all but over now. The foothold they have is strong. Forward momentum may be slowed but it will succeed in the end.
Hey everyone, spread the word and sign up, it costs you nothing.
Watching my grandsons and other children at church, I am astounded by their ability to be so resilient. To bounce back so easily. You know dust off the problems of the day, make friends with anyone. It’s a shame that we are not that way when we get older. Instead greed and power can take over many of our lives. The lust for ourselves overwhelms countless scores of people. The current generation seem to think doing nothing is a way of life, and that everyone else should pay for their needs. Addictions abound and mental depression we all seem to have. You and I can argue endlessly at which of these points is the worst. In the end many feed off of each other and allow the others to flourish. Yes, worldly problems for as far as the eye can see with few answers to fill our coffers.
Currently, we allow politics to guide the agenda for our future lives and fix what ails us. That is if you are paying attention even a little. No matter where the source comes from, no matter the outcome it performs it will be twisted into a pretzel to fit the needs of the political side you might sway too. All one needs to do is look at the coverage from both sides of the media spectrum to see how life has become totally politicized. Oh, I’m guilty of it at times also, but it, as you probably know, is tearing apart our nation bit by bit.
While some mutter about civil war, that potential seems miniscual to most of us. We as a people will instead fall into the arms of the side that will give us the most. Now for 30% of us that means we need little to nothing. We can fend for ourselves no matter the problem. But, the 70% in the middle. Most of them are truly not paying attention to what is happening in our nation, our world, or life in general. Lost in video games, twitter, or whatever that suits their fancy on any given day. They are oblivious to what is going to happen in our near future. To be honest, many of them want doing nothing, to become a way of life. We are all guilty of that from time to time, aren’t we? Total control by a government that does almost anything you need for you sounds like utopia to so, so many. Unfortunately the flip side of that is that they ignore or don’t know how totalitarian governments work. If they did, they might not sing the same tune. Many are placaded by the likes of a smiling Bernie Sanders who tells them that it is great that their government will control them. He looks like your grandpa, you can trust your grandpa? Everyone seems to admire Bernie for being up front with his wants and I agree I know pretty much where he stands. I believe he is honest about his thinking communism is the way to go. But, even Grandpa Bernie sugar coats how life may be under his way of thinking.
Platitudes abound from socialists on how they will do it better, and don’t believe your lying eyes permeate the social tundras. Venezuela is not as bad as people say! These are words uttered from the lips of academia and liberals alike. But, just look at our Cuban Americans who live in Miami, or southern Florida. Sit down at a table with them with a handy adult beverage and find out what they think about Castro. Scholarly words will not be what you hear bantered about. No, torture, killings, silencing of all is the norm in communist regimes.
China runs the same route, but has a much larger country to control. Couple that with social media platforms and they can be seen for what they are more easily. Just like Bernie did with Russia they sugar coat life in their country to the cameras while they run concentration camps for Uyghurs. Papa Bernie never saw the bad outcomes while he was in Russia studying. If he bore witness to nefarious dealings he has not spoken of it. The government ensured he did not live the lifestyle of so many at the time. In many ways our government does the same thing right now. They announce to the world that all is good and we are in control, while they slowly take away your rights drip by drip. We slip towards fascism as they manipulate and hide what they don’t want you to know.
Remember that child who never sees the terrible chaos around them. The one who sits playfully reading a book in the middle of a room full of 4 and 5 year olds while the others run roughshod over their playmates. That kid is now the 28% of people who see nothing and seem to know nothing is wrong. They along with a few stalwarts of the Democrat party are the ones still saying Ole Joe is doing a great job. Unfortunately they and some others not focused on the future are the ones still allowing our nation to slip farther into a depression. As long as they are still out there saying Joe is a winner, than Joe will push forward with what his regime sees as the future utopia for a currently dying nation.
No, not electric cars, wind turbines, and solar panels. Fundamental changing of our nation is the desired outcome and produces a permanent elite class and poor class. Power, and greed is what moves the agenda. Climate change is now just the conduit for taking what they want for themselves. It is a tried and true power grab under the disguise of a world catastrophe. A problem many would add they caused. Our political class now use it to continue their status as elites, while the rest of us wither away into a seedy underworld the likes of places we are not allowed to talk about. We are paupers to the princes, and tied to a tether like a children’s balloon carried by those same grandkids I talked about earlier. You know a play thing to tow with. Well, here’s to them losing their grip on the string.

It all sounds grim at times. Yet you can still overcome the obstacles ahead. Now is where you need to turn to Jesus if you have not. It is the road less traveled. Isn’t it? Take this route. If you are willing to grab the prize of all prizes, the king of all kings. Then no matter the problems, he will be there. No matter how low you go, HE IS THERE!
You know Jesus told us life is to serve others, and to trust in him. That he will give you strength when it is needed. That he will give you solace in knowing that you are loved. So, if you are Burdened by any problem. Put your faith in Jesus, the great I AM, the only TRUTH, THE ONLY TRUTH, that will carry you through the troubles we endure!
See you next time….
Lovin my grandkids...hope they can do it.....
