Forgive and.....Forget?
Watching the State of the Union’s Message given by President Bush last night proved to be quite frustrated for Charlie and I.
Seeing the resistance.....and insistence..... among the political parties....and the body language exhibited .....It reminded me of a room full of children....choosing sides against each other.....for a game they would be playing.
Give me a break!
Grow Up!
Get Real!
.........Having been in the military as a family career....and now having family members....waiting ‘on hold’....I can say unequivocally......
These people who make life and death decisions....laws....choices etc. that affect each and every one of us......
.......BETTER GET SERIOUS!
Overlooking the seriousness of 9/11 in a nuclear technical age.....
is foolhardy and irresponsible ....to say the least.
Being a Christian makes me a daily believer and ‘doer’ of Jesus' mandate to forgive ...friends and enemies.......Forgiveness DOES NOT GIVE US A LICENSE TO DO WRONG!
Accountability and responsibility go hand in hand with forgiveness.....
Can you imagine what would happen in a family with small children if the parents said every day to every thing that the children did....’I forgive you, I forgive you, I forgive you“.....and never taught those children responsibility and accountability and the difference between right and wrong?”
The children would grow into immature, irresponsible....monsters!
Forgiveness is a must.
...In a civilized world.....so is accountability.
The balance of Justice between the two.....in a nuclear age....takes the Wisdom of Solomon....rendered in answer to much prayer.
Therefore, I ask you to join me in prayer for our nation by praying the words of James 1:5 for our ...paid by us ‘political decision-makers’ ....
...1:5....But if any of you needs Wisdom, ..if you want to know what God wants you to do,.....ask Him, and He will gladly tell you, for He is always ready to give a bountiful supply of Wisdom to ALL who ask Him; He will not resent it.......
