All the ugliness in the world and I see the sin of us all on one, on a cross...long ago

http://jesus-the-christ-is-coming.blogspot.com/2009/02/riches-of-men.html

I'm looking back to the Bible,

wont' go into long explanation.

Will say, see Two blogs,

jihad watch and infidel bloggers alliance, http://www.jihadwatch.org/ and http://ibloga.blogspot.com/

read something interesting today about the 'embracing of fascism' on Pajama's Media...

while I concur with most of it in part, I have to say,

we lose liberty as well when we put money and goods and selfishness ABOVE GOD,

I just can't stop remembering so many scriptures, that for years I rationalized or not so much rationalized,

I compartmentalized because I didn't see the compassion, especially towards the poor/suffering,

what I saw was the love of prosperity.

So I wanted to change the world,

but funny, funny that I now see, we weren't told to change the world,

we were told to be a light in the world.

Well, anyway,

my heart is deeply troubled, I look here and there and I all see is misery, anger and fear [and I feel that anger/fear too],

I react

I hate

and then I see

the one, on the cross and all the sin and think

this isn't right. What I or how I'm fighting isn't right, something just isn't right....

so once again, knowing I am supposed to keep my eyes not on this world or the problems in this world but on God, [Isaiah] and yet, my eyes wonder,

knowing this and knowing that yes the world scoffs, its weak they say, its a crutch they say, its this, its that....there is no god there is no jesus, etc etc etc

but look around,

what do YOU see?

I know what I see and I don't like it, I don't want any part of it...though I know I can't remove myself from the world and that I can't hide,

so what to do?

How about, looking at what scripture says, see what that is,

it can't hurt.
