I try to be honest with myself, and with you the reader, and I want to be as honest with my Lord?  

In one sense I have had hope for America and for our world to be making a turn for the better. I want revival in myself and in our world.  I have seen signs of revival.  I hear that the younger generation is awakening to the hypocrisy of the ruling class, and hopefully to their own as well.  The Chosen is drawing some of us closer to our God.  We had won an election.  But is all that enough?

For on the other hand I hear the podcasters with whom I agree politically come out with some of the crudest cursing and language within their form of sharing.  Stuff that I don’t want to share with you or my family.  And then I consider what has occurred with especially Muslim and the gang invasions into the west, and my hope somewhat fades; because when I ponder it, I think that if it’s happened; then we must deserve it.  God doesn’t lose patience with a society claiming to be Christian, as I keep hearing that we are, and He doesn’t allow invaders in, without good reason.  He tells us in His book when and why things like these happen to especially those calling themselves His. 

God is on the one hand miraculously appearing to and saving perhaps thousands in Iran and in other Middle Eastern Muslim controlled countries, and at the same time allowing the most radicalized Muslims to flourish in the West.  Western cities are imposing Sharia Law

Only the Spiritually blind will not see the real reason why.  We in the West give our Creator lip service; while those in the Middle East cry out in their hearts for deliverance from evil.  These Middle Eastern Countries were 50/60 years ago Christian, much  like what we are and have been. Today they are ruled by Muslims and they are laying down their lives to belong to Jesus.  I don’t have 50 years for an awakening to come in America and in my life, neither did The Christian Parents in Iran 50 years ago.  Am I right to fret over America?
