“A voice crying in the wilderness” – a kindred spirit

By: American Decency Staff

We received this email late yesterday.  Her words reflect heartache and sorrow for what is befalling America.  Yet, her caring words reflect hope grounded in the Hope of the World. She also recommends lifting up Christ and Christmas through an outdoor nativity scene. Read and weep but rejoice in the Promise that is hers and for anyone who trusts Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord. Quoting: I was struck yet again today while in line at the store…drug store, discount store and general merchandise stores – the magazines on display in the front by the registers blatantly scream IMMORALITY at us – and our children, even if they don't consciously register this information, are bombarded with this garbage CONSTANTLY! LARGE headlines on covers scream things like "what even good men secretly crave in bed" – and some I would not even quote! It's DISGUSTING – and heartbreaking… Even Meagan Kelly on Fox News had that disgusting "sex psychologist" – can't recall her name, but she's the 80 something y.o. and they are discussing sex for long term marrieds/relationships…this was BEFORE NOON here in Ca! HOW CAN WE COUNTER THIS? I feel like our kids don't have a chance to grow in virtue – because even our so-called priests, ministers, rabbis, etc. do NOT preach against this filth regularly! They are so afraid to "offend" someone, they choose, instead to avoid anything that MIGHT be considered "politically incorrect" – and instead, it seems, prefer to offend God, Himself! (what is that Scriptural quote about priests? – ….I will vomit thee out of my mouth.") And our government, which has gone so far from our origins that our Founders would not even recognize this country, promotes this – we are now forced to abandon OUR Christian Faith and principles of decency and modesty if we choose to fly. I’ve told my children that I will not be able to visit with them at Christmas – as I have since I moved literally across the country – because I REFUSE to expose myself – either with the ‘nude scans’ or by having strangers touch my body! I feel like I am punishing my children! I only get to see them once a year as a rule – and my little grandsons are growing up – 3,000 miles away! What really boggles MY MIND is that while CAIR and Muslims are loudly proclaiming that this is a violation of THEIR beliefs, I have not heard ONE Christian minister, priest – or a rabbi – complain about the violation against US! WHY? Our whole culture has turned completely away from God – and then I hear people (secularists particularly, of course!) that IF there were a Good and Merciful God, He would not let disasters happen to those who believe! – Is it me, or does it seem as if there are more ‘natural’ disasters happening now than in the past? – and people blame God! It is not God – it is US! WE have turned our backs on Him and allowed this AMORAL culture to happen…we accept people’s “right to chooseâ€Â abortion; we “acceptâ€Â homosexuals – this list could go on for hours, could it not? I am no saint – but I am trying to inspire others and trying desperately to turn MY life to God – even as I am busy with everyday activities – to ask Him to help me – to Inspire me to do what is right….but it becomes overwhelming! God bless you for what you are doing…I’m sure you must feel as if you are shoveling the sand against the tide… May God bless you with a peaceful Thanksgiving – and a Blessed Christmas Season! As usual, the very first Christmas décor I put out is my outdoor Nativity Scene…which I had to replace this year. God did, I believe, inspire me to search for a new one I could afford – if you know anyone who is looking for one, please send them to “Uncle Nobby’s Nativitiesâ€Â at www.unclenobby.net . these are beautiful…done by a Christian man who wants people to remember the “Reason for the Seasonâ€Â! (I have no connection to him other than having bought one of his Nativities, by the way…and was so impressed with it I want to share this info with others!) I’ve actually had people stop as they are driving by and comment and thank me for putting out a Nativity Scene! YES! There are folks left who Believe….let’s just keep Sharing the Word and pray that we CAN overcome the secularist who are working so hard – and spending so much money to destroy our once-Christian nation!
