We should not act as heroes

for doing what we are expected

to do if we wish to claim a seat

in our Father’s house. Jesus gave

us instructions, and He didn’t say

if you do this or that, but when

you do it you will become heirs

to the kingdom. We must remember

this every day. There is much work

to be done. We cannot neglect the

poor and helpless and expect to be

called a hero when we finally do

something worthwhile. What we

do may be good, but it is what we

are expected to do unceasingly for

all of our life. There may be excuse

after excuse on why we didn’t, but

these excuses will not exonerate us

from what was and is our duty. It is

never too late to begin. There is

honor in joining others in doing the

work of the lord. When we join

others in doing this work, we are

blessed with a feeling of joy. We

are fulfilled and wonder why we

didn’t begin sooner. We may ask

for forgiveness for our past failures

as we proceed with our new way

of living. This is the only way we

will find the peace we are looking

for. It is in giving that we are filled.

It is  not a pretty sight to see the damage done in

Syria and Turkey as a result of the earthquake.

The countries are ravaged and over 40,000 people

have died plus many more injured. No one should

have to suffer in this way. Starvation and dehydration

are claiming lives and soon disease will be rampant.

One may wonder if what happened is an answer to

the genocide of the Armenians by Turkey and Azerbaijani.

It is claimed that over a million Armenians lost their lives.

There are still disagreements over what took place at

that time, but a similar event to a lesser degree took

place just a few years ago. Fighting over territory is

ongoing and we Americans are involving ourselves

to the point of no return. History’s lessons have not

been learned and while we are protecting the Ukraine

border ae are ignoring our southern border which is

being invaded daily along with sex-slaves, and deadly

drugs, especially fentanyl. The administration is doing

nothing to stop this and just says don’t use addicting

drugs and drive electric vehicles. Would an electric train

have stopped the mishap in East Palestine, Ohio?

Are we paying attention to our electric grid system

or are we at risk of permanent black our which would

bring our country to an end. We cannot stop snowfall,

rain, dry spells, tornados, hurricanes, and flooding,

but we can stop trying to interfere with nature,

use our safety checks and develop a way for peaceful

coexistence in our world. There is a master plan over

which we have no control. Those who are evil will never

concede this and go on living, hoping they are right.

Ignoring the obvious is never the answer. We must

wake up soon.
