NO MORE HASHTAGS!!!!!
This week!!! This month!!! This year!!! What are we doing to stop the insanity???!!! Watching the news in Chiraq is full of police brutality, crime, murder, COVID-19, and political infighting. Battling the elements is tough enough as the weather does change every five minutes. The release of bodycam videos in the death of a 13 year old has heightened anxiety and weariness of police involved shootings. The fears, the lack of protection and racial inequality has most black and brown people on edge. History is repeating itself in the ugliest of ways. Picture all the children separated at the border reunited with their families. Think about the children not being gunned down in the streets, but at home with their parents. All lives matter, right? The silence of the gun lobbyists is deafening. Racial tensions are popping up across this country with confrontations on the rise. I'm sickened by the continued downward spiral of violence in our communities. Say it with me... NO MORE HASHTAGS!!! Let's send a message of hope, joy, peace, and happiness. Isn't that what we were put on this earth to do? Think about it. Don't you want someone to rescue you when you made a bad choice? Ignored warning signs? Down to your last breath? Let's go back to the work that God has given us. There but by the grace of God go I. Can we extend God's grace to one another? I think of the families of the victims. Those parents go down in prayer, crying over the loss of their loved ones. What if the whole area went into prayer and support of those pushed to the fringe of society? The world is watching these incidents and trials moment by moment with anticipation. Their faith in America is crumbling under these circumstances. We need to stand strong on the power of God to ensure the safe return of our young boys and men to come home. Just imagine if our community embraced each other like that and lived up to the creed of our nation. Prayers for everyone. Holding each other up when spirits we're down. Many still yearn to live a purposed life. The best life. The purple life. Let's continue to chat as we move along this journey for social justice, community upheaval, and unified participation.
