Part 3 Humpty Dumpty

 Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall

Gentle readers,

You might ask why do I tell you all these things for what happened to us several years ago (and is still in some fashion going on). It’s because you need to understand that sometimes God whispers in the darkest times. Even Christians go through what has been called "the silence of God" or "the dark night of the soul" it is when the people favored by God have by their actions or altitudes have turn their back on what God wants for each of us. Remember the sermon on the mount?

"And seeing the multitudes, he went up into a mountain: and when he was set, his disciples came unto him: And he opened his mouth, and taught them, saying,

Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted. Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth. Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled. Blessed are the merciful: for they shall obtain mercy. Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God. Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God. Blessed are they which are persecuted for righteousness' sake: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Blessed are ye, when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake. Rejoice, and be exceeding glad: for great is your reward in heaven: for so persecuted they the prophets which were before you.

Ye are the salt of the earth: but if the salt have lost his savour, wherewith shall it be salted? it is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot of men. Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid. Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house. Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven. But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you; That ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust. For if ye love them which love you, what reward have ye? do not even the publicans the same? And if ye salute your brethren only, what do ye more than others? do not even the publicans so? Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect."

(Matt 5 ) 

Or in a nut shell we might say "Do to others as you would have them do to you. It’s time Gentle reader, for us to turn not inward as we have in the past but outward! Reaching out to help one another! For when we do this one thing God will in turn give us that which we need. We no long can allow our political leaders to steal, rob and cheat! No longer can we allow those people who have been given much to continue to allow greed to rule their lives.

We must decide the way we want this country to go. Up and giving to all mankind or hoarding and grasping for self. You cannot do this alone Gentle Reader, but you can start. Help your neighbor, help that stranger, help the poor, yes and even help the rich!

God is giving us as individuals and as a nation  a chance to show what we are really like. Are we good? Or are we not? It’s up to each of us to put that best part of ourselves out there. Mat 25:40 And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me.

And what will you do Gentle Reader? What will you do?
