7-29-20 What? Wait a Minute

Daily Jot: What? Wait a minute! - Bill Wilson - www.dailyjot.com
 
Marxist groups that want to defund the police, abolish the traditional role of fathers in the family, and set all prisoners free because of racism are being celebrated by political leaders and the news media- What? Wait a minute! The world is being shut down by the fear of a virus where there is a 99% chance of survival- What? Wait a minute! People have adopted the slogan, "Hate doesn't live here," but call everyone who disagrees with them racists, bigots, hatemongers and more- What? Wait a minute! Mayors in the largest cities in the US are demanding the defunding of police yet are turning a blind eye to riots, murders, crime, vandalization of businesses-What? Wait a minute! These are just from headlines, here are more.
 
Democrats blame the President for COVID 19 deaths, but offer no solution to what they call a national pandemic- What? Wait a minute! The New York governor sends people infected with COVID 19 to nursing homes and then tries to blame the President for huge numbers of nursing home deaths- What? Wait a minute! Now he's saying that criticism of his actions is just politics-nothing to see here- What? Wait a minute! Riots in Seattle and Portland, the mayors and Democrat politicians there refusing to restore order, but blame the President- What? Wait a minute! The Speaker of the House invoking Nazism when the President sends federal agents to restore order in riot-torn Democrat-controlled cities- What? Wait a minute!
 
the US closed Chinese consulate offices amid an array of issues, including COVID 19 and spying, and China retaliates saying the US is responsible for all of the deterioration in US-China relations- What? Wait a minute! Democrat governors and mayors are issuing orders and punishments for not following lockdowns and wearing masks, yet their states and cities are the most infected with COVID 19- What? Wait a minute! Those same politicians want businesses shut down and people in lockdown, but they support rioters in the streets- What? Wait a minute! Former Vice President Joe Biden says that black people are not really black if they don't vote for him- What? Wait a minute!
 
In more than 80 pages in the Democratic National Committee's draft platform published by Politico, whites are mentioned 15 times, all critical, including three references to white supremacy or supremacists and one to white nationalists, which likely encourages more rioting in the name of racism-What? Wait a minute! Do you see the pattern in all these headlines? The nation is gone crazy. Proverbs 12:15 says, "The way of a fool is right in his own eyes, But he who heeds counsel is wise." America is adrift in foolishness. Oh, one more-Major League Baseball has no fans in the stadiums, so it is populating seats behind home plate with cardboard cut-outs of fans-What? Wait a minute! Put on the brakes. We need the LORD.

9-16-23 Santa Staleness

Santa Staleness :: By Edwin Tan Published on: December 24, 2022 by RR10 Category:General Articles My one and only trip to Israel had more than a profound effect on my present-day psyche. It might have been three decades ago, but there is more than a lingering aftertaste. It happened smack in the last fortnight of the year. Surprisingly absent were the familiar sights and sounds of the Christmas most people are accustomed to. Hardly any Christmas decorations in downtown Tel Aviv, if not any of the shopping thoroughfares across the Holy Land. Hanukah was a breath of fresh air – not anything resembling a Christmas carol most people grew up with did surface. The Christmas Eve service in a small Protestant church not far away from Jerusalem’s Old City was awesome; songs that truly celebrated the virgin birth of our Lord, which though seemingly unheard of, were a welcome inspiration to many a soul. There was even one sung in Arabic! So it began, my overt disdain for the secular Christmas t...

9-25-23 The Farm Chronicles: One Christmas

The Farm Chronicles: One Christmas :: By Bill Wilson Published on: December 24, 2022 by RR10 Category:Bill Wilson, General Articles There are a lot of terrible things going on right now in the world. But we are at the time of the year when we, as Christians, celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ. We can choose to be impacted by the world around us in its dimly lit arena, or we can choose to let our light so shine. I choose the latter. I want to tell you a little about the Christmas that I had growing up on our family farm in Ohio. I was blessed to be born into a horse and cattle farm that has been in our family for some 200 years. And Christmas, especially Christmas Eve, was a wonderful time for our family. December 24 was my Dad’s birthday. And my Dad was well-loved by his neighbors and friends, so we had a lot going on Christmas Eve. I remember one special Christmas Eve. I must have been about four years old. The night was falling, and the wind and snow were whipping across the barny...

9-15-23 Miracles 2

Miracles 2 :: By Jim Towers Published on: December 21, 2022 by RR10 Category:General Articles This story is a continuation of the exciting things God continues doing in my life. I was supposed to have died a while back, and sometimes I feel as though I may do so soon. But since I’m ready to meet my maker, I have no fear of death. In fact, my evangelistic zeal has only increased, especially as I see the fast approaching of the “Tribulation period” mentioned in the book of Revelation. Insofar as my acting career is concerned, I just finished filming a soliloquy featuring Melchior, one of the three Magi who followed the star to Christ lying in the manger, and am preparing to portray a Jewish Priest on stage. Like I said, God is working overtime in my life, and I will be appearing on stage singing Broadway show tunes sometime in March, so I have a lot of rehearsing to do. In the meantime, I will be signing Christmas carols acapella at a park here in Naples. Since it is a spontaneous th...
