Divided we are....United Not So Much

Dear Blog, I love you so much.  You are there to hear my every rant and feeling.  Today I am very upset.  I am so tired.  I am discouraged.  I would not know where to turn or what to do were it not for my Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.

Something is happening that is beyond comprehension and that is that the truth is being bantered around as though it were a tennis ball.  No one knows what is true anymore.  It seems people no longer care whether or not it is true...just so they are the first one to be able to tell you what they "heard or saw."  Most of which is something they heard from some one else who heard it and saw it, who got it from......But, come on, let's post it!  Can you believe THIS?...they start their tirade. 

NO!  NO! I can't believe this....but something deep inside makes me sick. 

I just don't know anymore what to think, listen to or believe.  So, basically what I have done is isolate myself as much as possible from people, news and anything else other than the unchanging Word of God.  It is the ONLY thing I can depend on these days, and always has been, but it is becoming more and more obvious every day.

I can hardly even find Christians who agree with me....I really am pretty far out.  Then I talk to another Christian who is also pretty far out...just in a different direction.  Then another....and another.

The Word tells us to fellowship, and I want fellowship so much.  But, I cannot seem to find it.  Don't get me wrong, I have friends, good friends, friends I love....but I have no fellowship!  Does this make any sense?  It may not to you, but it does to me.

United we stand and divided we fall is an old saying I remember from way back when I was a child.  I find it incredibly relevant in today's climate.  It seems that in almost every way we are divided.  We are divided politically, personally, "religiously" and I say that in quotes because I detest religion, but that is what the world has named it, so I call it that so you will know what I am speaking of.  We are divided on so many social levels, what does the Constitution say, what does it not say, what does it mean and not mean...and how about the Bible....it has been distorted, miscommunicated, changed, everyone "interprets" it in their own way.....

I believe God and I believe God's Word.  I do not believe that the Word was given to confuse us, but rather to comfort us. 

This is a letter to be continued............
