The place was doomed. Not only had crooked politicians taken over, but evil politicians. Politicians who cared only for themselves. They cared not one iota for all of the people they swore to protect. Yet, some of those same people were rallying around these evil politicians bantering signs that read….”WE WILL BE GREAT AGAIN.” and “LET’S MAKE A LEADER. “ALL FOR ONE AND ONE FOR ALL.” You’ve seen the signs. You’ve heard the speeches. Speeches that say that the people now in office have ruined everything and how only the people you see before you can make it right again. All the while those speeches were being given and as those signs waved in the air, there was burning and pillaging and destruction going on. Pure chaos reigned only blocks away. What am I talking about? Oh! I thought you knew. We watched the Christmas Batman and Penguin and Catwoman last night. Filmed in the 1980’s. (The title is Batman Returns in case you are interested.) After Penguin accepted the nomination for mayor, he walked away muttering…”It’s not about power. It’s about reaching out to people. Touching people. Groping people!” Later Penguin tells Batman, “just relax. I’ll take care of the squealing, wretched pinhead puppets of Gotham. You gotta admit, I played this stinkin’ city like a harp from hell."

And just like the people of Gotham, so many seem to be giving up on this country....they seem defeated and they say that there is nothing they can do to fight against the evil that is taking over our country. The Hero in my story does not wear a cape OR a mask....He is Mightier than any evil force that attacks us....He will not forsake us .....we don't even need to send the 'Bat Signal' up into the sky to get His attention...He is already with us and all we have to do is whisper his name.....Do ye of little faith think that this is a done deal....this mess that the evil ones have created? The Swamp did not fill up over night. God can turn all of this around with the flick of His Mighty Finger, but would we learn from that. Does He not call on us to be soldiers fighting against such attacks? Believers, rise up and put the Armor of God on as Paul spoke about in Ephesians....spend your time in prayer and NOT in complaining and living your life in fear and defeat...! We are Victorious in Christ every day and we DO win in the end !!!! As we celebrate the Birth of the Christ Child the song 'I Heard the Bells on Christmas Day' seems to fit this year of 2020....the last two stanzas are especially important as the song ends in saying..."And in despair I bowed my head, 'there is no peace on earth", I said, "for hate is strong and mocks the song of peace on earth, good will to men!" Then pealed the bells more loud and deep, God is not dead nor doth He sleep..the wrong shall fail, the RIGHT prevail, with Peace on Earth, Good Will to Men'.....We are in a time of Awakening....I have been in a complacent slumber for some time now....I am becoming awakened to a whole new way of looking at things....I am no longer a 'surface' looker'...I am peeling back the layers and no longer believe what I see on the surface....each day I pray that my Father allows me to see more and more. What great wonders and miracles we will be seeing when God's Will is Done !!!!!! I love you Pat, what great blogs you write...... Leave a Reply. |
