Christmas peace, children killed, and where was God, 12-25-12 Commentary

Where was God? That is a question many souls are asking after what took place at that grade school in Connecticut. Where was God when all those children were murdered. How could a good God allow that. It is terrible something like that happens around Christmas. Those are some of the feelings souls have expressed.
Some have said should not Christmas bring peace instead of children being killed. Some have acted like God was not there because he has been ordered out of the government schools by the court. Though that is not correct either legally, or is that correct far as Theology goes.
We often get the idea Christmas should bring about peace. Well where was God when all those children were murdered. No not in Connecticut but back around that first Christmas. You see the birth of the Christ child so upset an evil human King that he ordered little children to be murdered. When we say God brings peace to us that doesn't mean this world will always be a peaceful place but every soul that calls on the name of the Lord can live at peace because they know their soul is right with the Lord. So where was God when those killings happen in Connecticut the same place he was that first Christmas when evil King Herald order those little children killed. Matthew 1: 23 reads “The virgin will conceive and give birth to a son, and they will call him Immanuel”[d] (which means “God with us”).
Jesus came to be part of our lives. He came to help us have peace in our souls even while our world is at war. He will do that if we will admit we are sinners and that he took the punishment for our sins.
Have a blessed Christmas.

2012 Goals/Desires, 1-2-12 Commentary

Happy New Year! Listen to the commentary
Something I do every News Years Eve and or New Year’s Day is to make out my goals and or desires for the new year in fact I make out goals the first day of every month for the following 30 days. Perhaps you might want do the same this new year. Now don’t forget goals are things you have control over desires are things you want to happen but have no control over. How about having as a goal to find out what God’s will is. A way to do that is by opening up the Bible and reading it. Even if you are a non believer that would be a good goal because shouldn’t you know who you have said yes or no to.
What do you think.

Obama Doesn't Give Thanks to God, 11-28-11 Commentary

(audio)

"The Thanksgiving radio address the U.S. President gives to the public had an unusual twist this year -- there was absolutely no religious reference in it., Barack Obama's omission of God in the Thanksgiving message was yet another signal of just how boldly secularist is his vision of America." That was posted by my friend Denny Hartford on his blog .

Denny also posted the following... Regardless of polls, politics or economics, Barack Obama does have a set of core beliefs that he religiously (pun intended) sticks to. That's why he is willing to shut down the government to keep taxpayer money going to Planned Parenthood."

Amen Denny. The Bible says by their fruit you will know them has Obama given us any fruit to show he wants to encourage us to thank God for what he has done for America?

What do you think?
