6/2020 What in da world
A June 6, 2020 post:
Apparently the quarantine is over in New York City. I must have missed that memo.And Now I am told I am a racist and I don't even know I'm a racist.... and I am also told Black Lives Matter and "White silence equates to violence if I don't speak up....ME: Speak up about what? and yes, last time I looked I am a tanned germanic white casusican.I am told I have 'White Privileges" and I'm not kidding on this one.The Over-educated ( Harvard) person who came up with "White Privilege" Peggy McIntosh ...of 47 different reasons she gives that whites only have is ...wait for it... "I can chose blemish cover or bandages in "flesh" color and have them more or less match my skin. " (This is where I blink my eyes in astonishment over and over)
I'm not making that up....Its not a Babylon Bee satire comment.another is ..." I can be late to a meeting without having the lateness reflect on my race." WHAT ???Oh Geeeeezzzzzzz...... I am all for world peace and harmony, but in case you have not been paying attention in the age of so called enlightenment and what some IDIOTS call progressvie thinking...going around wearing "WOKE Tee Shirts and lets start with the War between the States...how many wars have we had and how many people have died up till now? Yep, we Woke Alright. If your looking for offense or evil in this world you will always find it.We will always have the poor and rich and there will always be bias's /Racism/ Prejudices and Wars over Land and Religion.I happen to think there is more good than evil. How we responded to this Virus thing.... for the most part we tried to help each other out.But this George Floyd thing? I do hope justice will prevail...but what I hate most of is the Charlatans that come out and make hay.Not to mention the criminal aspect of it all...I do not believe America is at each others throats. I have seen some disturbing things...and I must admit I have to rein in my anger.The Apostle Paul had his hands full with pretty much the same thing. Look at what and who he was trying to bring together. So nothing really ever changes.Unless we do like Paul said while he was in prison..Preach Christ Crucified....and with that hopefully hearts will change and lives.
Unto the upright there arises light in the darkness. God's Word is "a lantern unto their feet, and a light unto their paths" and that is sufficient under most circumstances to guide our steps aright. When that is not enough, he gives us an inward light to them .He is gracious, and full of compassion, and righteous. Very High anxiety times we are living in. Pray He will helps us all to stop the hate.
