Not to Be Redundant

A good political remedy will not be forthcoming.  A religious remedy will be a disaster.  Now, with that said, I do know what will solve the dilemma of the death of the American dream.  The solution is Jeremiah 29:11-13.  For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says YHWH, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end.  Then shall ye call upon Me, and ye shall go and pray unto Me, and I will hearken unto you.  And ye shall seek Me, and find Me, when ye shall search for Me with all your heart.
It isn't a group or national solution, but rather an individual heart before our Creator solution.

The Other 1 Percent has realized, it's time to just dig in our heels, roll up our sleeves, and get busy doing what we can to let our light shine.  For some it's trimming the wicks.  For others, it's making sure we our lamps are full.  Still for others, it's getting rid of the bushels that shade the light.  We've also realized the headlines are nothing more than a political tennis match to elicit an upsurge of emotion, primarily anger!


I can't speak for others, but I am seeing the foreshadowing of this fall election to be nothing more than hate-mongering and more division, if we even get to that point before martial law is declared and elections "temporarily" suspended.  I do think we'll make it to that election, first, but the reality is, we are becoming desensitized to many possibilities that will at some point take place.


A friend who lives in an apartment temporarily lost internet connection provided by the landlord, or so they thought it was temporary.  The next discovery was, the landlord would no longer be providing an internet connection . . . Through storms, I've lost not only power, but my home phone is a part of Verizon, and it's been suspended at times due to circumstances beyond my control.  Point being, every time "things" shut down for a bit, we have become accustomed to presuming they will resume.  The reality, however; is far from that presumption.

As an "Other 1 Percenter" I have to remain aware of the bottom line.  The political differences will continue to polarize the population.  The religious differences will not be resolved until the Second Coming, and there is coming a day that a full power grab, will determine who has access to what.  In the meantime, we need to focus on what we can actually do something about!  And it's time to speak to The One who will actually listen!

Call unto Me, and I will answer thee, and show thee great and mighty things, which thou knowest not.  Jeremiah 33:3
