HE SAVED A WRETCH LIKE ME

I WAS WRETCHED, FOUL, FILTHY, FULL OF HATE AND SELF PITY.
I WAS A LIAR, A THIEF AND WHOREMONGER.
I WAS ADDICTED TO ALCOHOL, MARIJUANA AND PORNOGRAPHY.
FOR 30 YEARS I EXISTED; TRYING TO FIND HAPPINESS, SATISFACTION
IN MY ACTIVITIES. THOSE MOMENTS OF HAPPINESS WERE BRIEF, MERELY
DISTRACTIONS FROM THE TRUTH...
THE TRUTH WAS THAT I WAS BORN IN SIN, SHAPED IN INIQUITY.
THE THINGS THAT I WAS DOING WERE IN MY NATURE............BUT I WAS
UNHAPPY, ASHAMED, MISERABLE. I HATED MYSELF. HOW COULD THAT BE?
HOW COULD I CHANGE THIS NATURE? HOW COULD I ESCAPE?
THIS CONDITION THAT I WAS IN WAS NOT MEANT TO BE. BECAUSE OF
SOMEONE ELSES' SIN (ADAMS), I WAS CONDENMED TO THIS MISERABLE FATE,
DESTINED TO DIE AND SPEND ETERNITY IN HELL, SEPARATED FROM THE GOD
WHO CREATED ME.
THEN A MAN NAMED JESUS WAS BORN TO A VIRGIN, A WOMAN NAMED MARY.
JESUS WAS MORE THAN A MAN HOWEVER; HE WAS FILLED WITH THE SPIRIT
OF GOD.
HE WAS SENT TO UNDO WHAT ADAM DID. GOD SENT JESUS TO LIFT THE
DEATH SENTENCE THAT I WAS UNDER, AND THROUGH HIM MY WRETCHED
NATURE COULD BE CHANGED.
JESUS DIED ON THAT CROSS AT CALVERY TO PAY THAT PENALTY (FOR ME)
AND ROSE AGAIN TO LIFE SO THAT I MAY LIVE THROUGH HIM AND BECAUSE
OF HIM.....
ALL I HAD TO DO WAS CONFESS MY SINS TO HIM AND ASK HIM TO COME INTO
MY HEART AND HE DID.
NOW, EVERY DAY I'M LEARNING TO BE MORE LIKE HIM; SHEDDING THE OLD
NATURE BIT BY BIT,DAY BY DAY.
I GIVE PRAISE, THANKS AND GLORY TO THE LORD FOR 10 YEARS OF
SOBRIETY AND CELIBACY.

WHAT IS WRONG WITH THIS GUY??

THE OTHER DAY OBAMA ANNOUNCED THAT HE WOULD CONSIDER LAUNCHING SURVIELLANCE DRONES INTO SYRIA.....IF YOU WERE A GENERAL, WOULD YOU TELL YOUR ENEMY WHAT YOU PLAN TO DO?? WOULD YOU ANNOUNCE YOUR INTENTIONS?? WELL, YOU WOULD IF YOU HAD NO INTENTION OF ACTING ON YOUR ANNOUNCEMENT......OBAMA DOES'NT WANT ANY PART OF SYRIA.....OBAMA DON'T WANT TO DEAL WITH RUSSIA OR IRAN....NIETHER ONE IS AFRAID OF HIM....THEY SAID THAT BUSH WAS A COWBOY, THAT THAT MADE HIM DANGEROUS....WELL, A COWARDLY PRESIDENT IS DANGEROUS, YES?? SO, BARRY IS JUST FRONTIN', JUST WOOFIN' AS THEY SAY IN THE HOOD.... I REMEMBER HOW OBAMA AND DEMOCRATS CRITICIZED AND RIDICULED PRESIDENT BUSHS "COALITION OF THE WILLING" DURING THE IRAQ WAR.... WHERE IS OBAMAS COALITION? OBAMA IS CALLING ON THE BRITS AND THE FRENCH IN "PUBLIC" TO DO "SOMETHING"....COULD THIS MEAN THAT OBAMAS PRIVATE PLEAS WERE REBUFFED?? THE WORLD AND THE ENEMIES HAVE WATCHED OBAMA APPEASE, IGNORE ...

ANIMALS ON PARADE !!

AFTER THE APPOINTMENT OF A BLACK POLICE CHIEF IN FERGUSON, THE IDEA OR HOPE WAS THAT THIS "MOVE" WOULD CALM TENSIONS IN THE BLACK COMMUNITY THERE....THE NEW GUY, RON JOHNSON, MADE A WONDERFUL, ARTICULATE SPEECH...YOU KNOW, LETS ALL GET ALONG.... WELL, LAST NIGHT THOSE "PEOPLE" WENT ON A RAMPAGE, LOOTING SEVERAL BUSINESSES, INCLUDING THE STORE THAT MICHEAL BROWN "ALLEGEDLY" ROBBED....NOW, WHAT MESSAGE  DOES THAT SEND?? THEY GAVE THE POLICE THE FINGER, THAT'S WHAT !! THE POLICE WERE THERE CARRYING THOSE "INTIMDATING" HIGH POWERED WEAPONS (THE MEDIA REPORTS) BUT THEY DID NOT STOP THE THIEVES....I GUESS THE LOOTERS WERE'NT "INTIMIDATED"..... IS THIS AFFIRMATIVE ACTION FOR AFRICAN AMERICAN THUGS?? WELL, I GUESS THAT IF THE POLICE HAD SHOT A FEW OF THEM, THEN THAT WOULD HAVE BEEN CALLED RACISM BY SOME, RIGHT BROTHER AL? OBAMA HIMSELF WOULD HAVE CONDEMNED THE KEEPERS OF LAW AND ORDER....TELL ME, DO YOU THINK THIS LOOK...
