STORMS

There has been a lot of rough weather lately. The death toll is astonishing, and the news is full of videos capturing clips of the power of these storms.
My prayers are for all of those who have suffered as a result of these storms.

Today, I want to talk about a different kind of storm that looms on the horizon.

With the earthquakes, tornados and all of the political and economic unrest in the world today, it gives the "gloom and doomers" much material to use.

You don't have to subscribe to their kind of thinking to sense a change in the air however. There is a shift happening in the earth. Many times what we see in the natural world is a reflection of what is happening in the spirit. Business as usual, is no longer working, whether you are speaking of the stock markets and banks or the church and its business. Greed, self interests, pride and power seeking at the expense of the weak is what has brought us to the place we are.

There is a change in the air. Change is happening. Birth pangs are not pleasant but they do bring such a blessing and joy in the end.

Let us continue to pray for the necessary change needed....."Thy Kingdom Come, Thy Will be done on Earth as it is in Heaven".....

I am not promoting a religious Agenda like the Christian Right, but a Agenda of Love, Compassion, equality and justice! I pray that our nation and world changes its ways from greed to equality...that we once again care about the poor, the widow and the stranger. May our wealth be found in our hearts and our faith placed in Love and compassion....this will bring lasting change and make us a great people!
