Angry with the Government......Blame Yourselves!

Are you angry that the government has gone rogue? Do you hate the direction this country is moving and has been for the past 70 years?
The Lord is giving us the country we deserve. We have wallowed in filth so long, endorsing sin even if we do not do it ourselves while placing more importance on family ties than on Christ. He has not been central in our lives for a very long time.
The culture has been mocking and demeaning Christ and His principles for as long as I can remember.
When I was a young parent I remember being mocked for saying it was better for parents to stay together to raise the children than for fighting couples to split, they mocked me for that. They said that it was better to split a family than to live with someone we were fighting with all the time.
How utterly silly it was what they said. I would say to them "there is one more alternative you haven't thought of, that is why doesn't one of you stop fighting." They laughed and mocked me as though I was the foolish one. I considered their thinking irrationally based on feelings rather than facts and solutions.
When a small child does not want to do the right or the difficult thing they make up silly arguments in the attempt to get what they want. They even say things like "you don't love me" or "I hate you, Mommy." When feelings are the objective in any culture all simple and rational answers are ignored and even mocked.
Life is really not as complicated as people want us to believe, it is however more difficult when we seek answers and ignore our feelings to do the noble things. Children have been marginalized, marriage has been ridiculed as outdated and restraining, and yet it is the institution of marriage that made the culture stable and the children secure and purposeful.
It really is true that "bad is being called good and good is being called bad."
