When I was in academia I heard many discussions about how America would be better off if it didn’t have a white majority. Mass immigration from non-white nations was seen as a means to accelerate change. It was part of reimagining America. Now it seems like all the theories once debated at seminars and workshop presentations are becoming realities through public policies and failures to enforce the laws of the land. I was too naive to know that the people around me had the ability to radically change America. I never imagined that the doors to our nation would be propped wide open. I never knew we would go backwards on civil rights enforcement.
Silly, me! 🙃 What was I thinking? I guess I wasn’t thinking hard enough. #Immigration #RuleOfLaw

Greetings 👋
I take much comfort in these verses. What about you? How has God been faithful to you when the enemy came in like a flood?
“The Spirit of the Lord God is upon me; because the Lord hath anointed me to preach good tidings unto the meek; he hath sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to them that are bound;
To proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord, and the day of vengeance of our God; to comfort all that mourn;
To appoint unto them that mourn in Zion, to give unto them beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness; that they might be called trees of righteousness, the planting of the Lord, that he might be glorified.”
Isaiah 61: 1-3 (NIV).
