YES WE GET ANGRY

Don't we all.  As we read our Face book post, we read of people being attacked, automobiles defaced, homes trashed and yes our beloved pets tortured and killed. This living in a country that is suppose to give us the freedom of pursuit of happiness. Our government is in the worst shape ever, our President can not be believed.  Then someone has to come to our homes and destroy what we have worked for.  Or in the case of a pet, a animal that we love and care for.  Yes angry, and hard to say the right thing, Lord for give them they know not what they do.  Oh they know what they are doing all right, what they do not know is what they are doing to those that are hurt. 

We used to wonder why the Bible said the devil comes to steal, kill, and destroy.  Why not steal, destroy and then kill?  Because the devil knows that killing can destroy the soul's of those left after the killing. This is when we have to stand stronger still and Praise the Lord in all that is going on around us, and yes even in the face of what is trying to intrude into our homes.  This is our safe place, where we can come inside, shut the door and go before the Lord to pray and seek peace. 

There are people right now that are living day by day in hotel rooms, or in cars, if they are so blessed. Many are actually outside under the stars not willingly, for lack of anywhere else to go. And yes we are sure they too desire a safe place. 

Yes we are angry, and we shall ask the Lord to keep our hand from doing wrong to those that have invaded our spaces.  We shall ask the Lord to build us up even stronger.  We shall ask Him to keep us covered daily with His blood, to protect us and those we love.

Yes we are angry.  But by the Grace of God, Jesus Christ we shall sin not.  We shall not repay evil with evil.  We shall ask God, Jesus Christ to bless whose that intend to do us and our loved one's harm, to bless those that knowingly step into our spaces.

God Bless
