Why We're Being Judged!

America the beautiful has lost her way
Forgetting the price God's Son had to pay
Appeasing the world with our Holy souls
We are judged daily for our sinful goals
Come Lord Jesus cause us to repent
Keeping our souls from being so bent.

Sometimes it is a hard thing to tell someone they are wrong about something. Many of us will shy away from speaking the truth, even in love. We do not want to trouble the waters and find out what they may think about us. But there is a time to speak and a time to keep silent. There is a time to take a stand and tell it like it is. It isn't easy, but it must be done.
As a little girl, I was always shy. I would never enter into a discussion even when asked my opinion about something. Then one day when I was 30, The Lord touched me and I was forever changed. From that time til this I speak my mind, always praying for His words to come out my mouth.
These recent weeks we have seen the betrayal of our own government, and the extent of greed that man will go to to keep the cash cow alive. Many of these men were once touted as Christian men. But somewhere along the way they stumbled and fell taking many of the world's economies with them. The people were tainted by greed and many other sins, setting us all up for a very big fall.
The worse thing about all of this is that even preachers are involved. They preached peace and prosperity and forgot to call the sinners to a true repentance being washed in the shed blood of Christ. Wealth is where it's at. Then there are those seeking a sign, never able to be satisfied with the sign of Jonas, Jesus says. Which as you may remember was the death, burial and Resurrection of Christ.
No wonder judgement had to fall. They now are saying it won't be long before we can return to our prosperity and the markets will be righted ect. ect. We will see. This may just be the start of the last days or maybe the end of the last days, but what ever it is, The Lord is calling to those of us to quit the foolishness and repent, for The Lord is at hand.
