The good shepherd will leave the ninety and nine behind and go after the one...that is lost.

Grief With No Boundaries

My dear friend had his son murdered.

Stop and consider that fact. Losing your child in an
act of extreme violence.

This prayer is for his hurting soul who is enduring
the one year anniversary of this unimaginable event.

Prayer for Joseph,

Time is never meant to heal
The wounds that cleft the soul
Time could never dare conceal
What's part but never whole

Baby's cry and toddlers walk
And little boys fall down
One day he begins to talk
Surprising all around

So it is and has it been
Since God did walk the earth
ending our mortality
Within a virgins' birth

Misery and joy do seem
To walk both side by side
Each one taking fitful turns
In beating down one's pride

For only in acknowledgement
That we are all but dust
Can wisdom be imparted
To give our God our trust

No pain will never leave us
But birds full breasted sing
And all that come to know the Lord
Will mount with eagles wings

No words can come to ease your pain
No words can ease your loss
Just know my love is with you
Though hurt and tempest tossed

Divine is the fraternity
Of those who lose their sons
Divine will be the victory
When you and he are one

Time is but illusion
Flesh but clay to dry
Know the martyrs company
In every tear you cry

We will all rejoice one day
When Jesus' by our side

I love you,

Michael

Is America Lost?

Logic can be over ruled but it can not be eliminated. It will simply sit on the shelf until someone rediscovers it and decides to employ it. It may be thought to be a "new" discovery, but in fact it will be proven after enough analysis to be as common as the instinct that our Creator gave us. That "common" sense is found to be not so common these days.

Societal needs have triumphed over societal preservation. Our "melting pot" is no longer a place where ingots of varying types are forged into one, cohesive metal. No, the melting pot has given way to the multicultural pot where all cultures are to be equally praised regardless of their benefit to society as a whole. This growing mass knows only to vote for increased benefits, increased social unraveling and increasing decline in the social fabric [ Judeo-Christian ] that forged this great nation. This current generation of future incarcerates will either find that logic that has so long been denied to them, or be put down by the very government that lied to them throughout their lives.

The denial of a stay at home mother, a two parent family, an education that taught instead of indoctrinate, a realistic view of what a well lived life would be and the attainment of that goal through hard work and realism has fully grasped this great nation. The grip that it commands has replaced families and neighborhoods with the supreme worship of self.

The "greatest generation" has clearly produced the worst generation. The social deprivates that currently run our political system have fully wrecked the ship. We are in the last stages of a fundamental collapse of our society in morality, reason and truth. For those who are awake, be prepared for the worst. For those that are asleep will awaken to social war.

It's time to choose your poison.
