Jumbled thoughts

It's funny how just writing what we think becomes a jumbled mess of words. When we type, we think it sounds a certain way, but the reality is so different. How can the same words, expressed in two different way convey such different feelings?

Anyway, I've been really concerned about the future of our nation. We've never really thought about it, but how blessed we are to have peace and security in our nation. How for granted we take it, expecting it to last for eternity. But Rome fell. Babylon fell. Jerusalem fell, even though when Solomon was king no country could rival its wealth. The life we live is such a blessing from God, which can be taken away at any moment.

I've been hearing stories like, our Government is pretty much useless right now because of its complete inability to actually take action on things. It's paralyzed by the decades of wasteful spending, and there's not a thing it can do about the massive health care reform needed, it's forced to spend billions on war, etc.

When Nineveh was about to be destroyed, the people repented and fasted and turned from their wickedness. Pray that USA would do the same.

Look at the signs of the times. Do not be complacent. Put your faith in God and not in your money, your power, your job. Store your treasures in heaven where rust, decay, war, tyranny cannot destroy.
