Climb Aboard! We Will Show You the Way.

Once again, we are at that time when our lives are bombarded by politics. Every four years, we elect a president who is always preceded by a vicious campaign of personal attacks and name calling. Each candidate has a plan to “help” the nation’s citizens.

Is anyone else tired of the exhausting circus? I know that I am.

We become obsessed with our politicians, wanting them to make changes and improve our lives. We are so focused and dependent that we also look to them for moral direction. Don’t forget, they are humans like you and me. They have no authority to give moral direction. Human thinking is flawed and corrupted with power and control being a huge temptation.

There is the old saying; absolute power corrupts absolutely.  It seems almost cliche to the point that we state it like a punchline to a joke. Yet, I like to state that with more power comes more temptation to abuse that power.

Putting our faith and moral direction in the hands of our politicians is a huge risk; dare I say, an easy way to trick ourselves. The trick is that we let another flawed individual or group guide our ethics as we travel through the raging river of existence. Why risk trusting a navigator who may drive the boat into the rocks or even toss you over to make the boat lighter?

Don’t get into the doomed ship and be chained to an oar, hoping to see the light of day as you row the vessel to an unknown destination under the command of a control hungry monger.

Buy the kayak and direct your own way through life. Be an individual, not part of an enslaved collective rowing under the monotone beat of a drum.

Who Will You Serve?

Bob Dylan wrote a great song talking about how we must serve somebody. No matter how we slice it, we are serving something or some principle. True freedom is only an illusion. Yet we are told we are “free” by the principalities that we are ironically serving. We are free to make our own choices but will gain favor or suffer consequences based on the action that we choose. This is not true freedom. We are bound by human law.

Follow the rules and you are fine. Disobey and you will regret it.

We are not prisoners in the physical sense, though if you break enough rules, you may become one. It is our minds that are imprisoned. We are being conditioned by the “rule makers” to think a certain way and behave according to their wishes. They say laws are made to protect us, but I beg to differ. Many laws are designed to control our behavior, keeping us in check. There are many who grab political power, not for the betterment of the citizens, but to influence and control. They desire to move their agendas.

So, what is the solution? How do we live?

Morality must always be the higher authority. Do not compromise what is good and right when mankind tells us to behave in a contradictory way. The woke movement wants us to sideline our principles and accept a loose morality that lacks conviction and accountability. Walking the moral path will bring a higher joy than living a morally fluid life.  

Who will you serve? Will you submit to the laws of mankind, or will you cast it aside and follow the higher principles that God has established for humanity. As citizens of a nation, it is our job to hold our leaders and lawmakers to this higher morality. When they fail, we need to take action. Use your voice. Do not be afraid to stand, cross the line and say, “I will not compromise.” I will serve what is good and right!

Will you?
