The Mother of All Storms is Brewing...

Restless...

I awoke early this morning, before 4 am with a terrible feeling that something was wrong. Then I realized the source of my worry- another four years of the same we've had in this country. The continued road into the toilet as our supposed leader was reelected to POTUS. I could not go back to sleep. How right I was to feel that something was so wrong and will continue to be so. THAT, my friends, is scary. It amazed me how the people of this country could be so blinded- again, and unlike the Who song that says, "...we won't get fooled again...", we were.

There is a great history book that I'm reading, a history book of the ancient Americas. It talks a lot about how the people that lived here were blessed by God and prosper when they follow him and kept His commandment and do what is right. It tells how they "ripened" for destruction and were destroyed by wars, famine, pestilence, etc., when becoming wicked, electing corrupt lawyers, judges and leaders. Then when on the brink of destruction, they realized their follies and repented and are blessed again. They do this over and over again- like in a cycle. You think they would have learned from their history. The time we are living in now... looks like we're at the bottom of the cycle again. We've just had an election- I can't say we put the best people in charge, several states legalized same-sex marriage and legalized marijuana... not to mention the illustrious leader... do you think we're ripening for destruction? do you think the Lord's wrath will be stayed much longer?

The east had a big storm last month- Super Storm Sandy they called it- very destructive, but she is nothing like the storm that is coming for this country. We had a chance for a bit of recovery and a hope to turn things around, but we're in for the storm of our lives. Sandy will be nothing compared to this. I'm sorry little Annie, but the sun will not come out tomorrow. It's too bad the country can't see that we needed REAL change by electing honest people and passing upstanding laws that are in our best interest and in line with our Maker's commandments. The country founders got it- they followed God and were blessed accordingly. Where have we lost sight? Yet, we go merrily on our way thinking all is well. "Eat, drink and be merry...". I guess the Constitution isn't hanging by a thread... yet.

  1. Great writing, brotha. This is absolutely true. Personally, I'm getting my "coat", "gloves", and "tuque" ready for this impending storm, 'cause it's going to be a big one. I love the way you tell it like it is, che. 'Tis so, so true.
