Whenever I suggest a new place or activity for my nine-year-old great grandson, the first thing out of his mouth is are they (the people) racist? When he was in second grade, he dressed as Malcom X and learned to take a knee. I’m choosing not to post a photo of this.
My hope is to get him out of public schools next year. He’s a talker and an arguer. He wants to dedicate his life to fighting racism. 🙄
I have made it a point to tell him that black people can be racist too and that most people are not racist. I have told him that God created one human race. Sin is responsible for the racism and hatred we see. Unfortunately, he has learned to blame everyone for his anything that goes wrong in his life. If he oversleeps, it’s my fault. I should have awakened him. It is critically important that we teach our children to take responsibility for their choices and not blame others for their failures. We need to teach their parents first. Sigh 😔
Please pray for President Trump and Melania.
Pray for the President’s health, discernment, patience, and spiritual growth or as the Lord leads you.
Pray for those whom God has placed around him. May they be as bold as lions when there is a need to deliver warnings.
Pray that God will raise up and rekindle the faith of any of us who are tired and wavering.
Fresh fire for everyone who believes that prayer can change hearts, minds, and nations.
Amen!
Greetings 👋
Our God has high standards, but fortunately for us the blood of Christ covers us through his freely given grace and mercy. Be encouraged my friend!
“Who may worship in your sanctuary, Lord?
Who may enter your presence on your holy hill?
Those who lead blameless lives and do what is right, speaking the truth from sincere hearts.
Those who refuse to gossip or harm their neighbors or speak evil of their friends.
Those who despise flagrant sinners, and honor the faithful followers of the Lord,
and keep their promises even when it hurts.
Those who lend money without charging interest, and who cannot be bribed to lie about the innocent. Such people will stand firm forever.” Psalm 15: 1-5 (NLT).
