Christian Living
Greetings to all of the Saints. This is not one of my typical poems or writings, actually is more of a charge or an examination. For many of us, we look forward to the day that we could come in the presence of God and enjoy his everlasting rest. For some of us, we are working tirelessly in the Harvest, laboring for the Lord. For some of us, we have sat in the pews and in a sense told God that we will not move until he finally answers that prayer for a mate, for finances or for some other worldly pleasure. Many of us have enjoyed the luxuries of the western civilization, and are still mad with God because he didn't one of our deadlines. This is very sad.
I recently had the pleasure of viewing Lifetime's 'Human Trafficking'. Never have I seen such atrocity. I can't recall a show that has left such an impact on me. This show brought to light this horrendous crime of men who abduct little girls and sell them in sex trades. My first response was God give me a sword and I would go after these men. But after going into prayer, my own fleshly desires ceased. But yet a righteous anger still lingered.
These young girls were taken from their parents. But yet we are angry with God. These young girls are being forced into performing some of the most disgusting sex acts. But yet we are angry with God. Many of these young girls become infected with AIDS virus. But yet we are angry with God. Many of these young girls are killed when they try to escape. But yet we are angry with God.
I do not make light of anyone's singleness, financial burden or any other failure to get that big break in life. But when you stand in front of me and tell me that you are mad with God because you don't have a mate to enjoy the holidays with, I have to say "You tell those kids that you are angry with God".
On a note, I do wish to take the time to lift up our sister Natalie Grant who sung about this on her 'Awaken' CD. Prayfully it is fruitful in generating exposure to this horrible crime.
