Happy New Year everyone!
We have the holidays in our rearview mirror, and the dawn of a new year has risen. Yet, if we watch the news, it seems the same old same old... ISIS, Obama on vacation, race hustlers running rampant and what if anything will the Republicans do with the majority of Congress? We have 2 more years of the Obama administration continuing to "fundamentally change" America. We have the run up to the 2016 presidential election which will no doubt start gearing up later this year.
And, by that time it is my hope that this president does not further divide an already immensely divided nation! A nation where New York's finest are not only being condemned by that progressive left loon Diblasio, but subjected to harsh unwarranted criticism by race baiting, people like shameless self serving parasites named Al Sharpton! We live in a country where the very moral fabric of our society is torn and tattered by progressive liberalism, i.e. Obama, Diblasio, Warren, Cuomo and on and on....
However....
It is NOT all the same stuff, different year. That is if we as believers in God look beyond the constant, almost incessant cycle of negativity that graces the media coverage daily. There are miracles in the midst of the chaos friends, we just need to be acutely aware of them!
For example...
A 7 year old Kentucky girl walked away from a plane crash that tragically took her entire family!
There is not a logical
explanation of this incident that a child survives a plane crash and has to
live without her family, perhaps there is a plan for her life that God will
unfold in time...
I do know this, the life we lead and the impact we have on those around us is proportional to the amount of God that is in our lives! We as a nation face difficult times both internally and externally. Sadly, the problems have been self inflicted wounds, by misguided, misdirected people whom have seemingly lost touch with greatness of this country only for self gain.
So as 2015 begins, perhaps we as a nation would benefit greatly if we focus on a simple yet profound text from the good book. "Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature; old things are passed away; behold, all things become new again"
It is a prayer I have for this country and everyone in it, that we all benefit from 2 Corinthians 17. We need NEW again!
