I’m tired. I’m tired of conservatives, those wanting to honor the Constitution, those believing in a Biblical World view including believing marriage is to be between one man and one woman, and those who believe that upon conception a real live human being has begun to grow in a woman’s womb being treated like second class, extremist, right wing nut cases! I’m tired of having to change views or laws, and being put at risk for being a hater of some type for every person who seems to think their feelings are hurt by someone’s point of view which is different than theirs at the moment. It seems to me that it is time for good old-fashioned common sense mingled with courage and Biblical morals to arise and not only resist, but begin to move forward to turn these life changing, peace destroying issues around so we can once again be what our Founding Fathers and the God of all creation intended for us. Life and not death. Blessings and not curses. Light and not darkness.
Colossians 1:13 - 14 says “For we must never forget that he rescued us from the power of darkness, and re-established us in the kingdom of his beloved Son, that is, in the kingdom of light. For it is by his Son alone that we have been redeemed and have had our sins forgiven.” Ephesians 1:3 says “Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ,” and in John 10:10 Christ Himself says “The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I came that they may have life, and have it abundantly.”
Biblical and natural history reveal that courageous, virtuous men and / or women must arise and defend what is right in a culture, or it falls backwards into what could easily be called an abyss - a cultural cesspool. We must look about and see that our culture is moving as a whole towards a cultural cesspool. Space doesn’t allow me to begin listing one by one the ungodly things happening daily in our land.
I’m tired of lawmakers, peace officers, judicial leaders, corporate and community leaders caving in to small groups that want special privilege and those leaders saying they can do nothing about it. Perhaps they really feel that way, but I’m tired of this ungodliness running roughshod over our hard earned freedoms both in Christ and by our Founding Fathers, and the generations that followed. I’m tired of those unrighteous persons calling those who are doing their best to preserve what is right in this nation ugly names that should not even be spoken.
I believe it is fully time for conservative, Constitution honoring, Biblical World View believers to be of one united voice before our God and our neighbors. We must beseech our God for His wisdom, timing and courage. We need to inform our neighbors that we must arise and shine the real Light of Life out into the darkness all around us. We must stand together and make a sound that penetrates every part of our culture saying that we are tired of this destruction of what is right and good in the sight of God. We do not have to agree with those who call evil good and good evil. God said these days would come, but He also revealed that those who are His shall not join that crowd. What fellowship has Light with darkness? What fellowship has Life with death? What fellowship has Blessings with curses? Let us the Body of Christ, the Church, stand together as if we really do believe that their is One Lord and One Spirit that we are joined with by faith in Christ. Let us see that righteousness exalts a Nation.
By the way, I’m not tired of serving the Lord Jesus Christ. I’m not tired of standing for what is right in the sight of God. I’m not tired of holding faith as a shield nor of releasing His Word as a sword of the Spirit. I’m not tired of making intercessions for all men nor of asking that all our leaders be saved so we can live quiet peaceable lives on earth. Neither am I tired of telling the old, old story of Jesus and His love for all of mankind.
Have a blessed season renewing yourself with His might and experiencing the surpassing greatness of His power towards you and yours.
