"From the river I can see..."




"The biggest problem we still have in this country is leadership. We need God fearing, America loving, Constitution following people in all levels of leadership. And media which is destructive and dismissive to our way of life, we need to eschew." 



How to finish this sentence. How about, "From the river I can see, all the mutts who bother me." Or on a more positive note, "From the river I can see, this land called America, and how I love thee." What is my point? The next time I hear "From the river to the sea" BS from the protesters, I think I might throw up in my mouth. I am sick of these malcontents, destroying our freedoms, and defacing our landmarks and colleges. It is high time we took America back from everything which is harmful to this great nation.

The picture above is from a college out east. Some of the mutts were trying to rip down our flag and replace it with a Hamas or Palestinian flag. These young men, who represent the majority of how our young people are today, would have no part of our flag being taken down. Despite being pelted with trash from the mutts, they kept our flag off the ground and on the flagpole. This picture is a ray of hope for all to see.

At another college out east yesterday, while the mayhem at UCLA was taking place, was having a revival. Yes, a revival. Not a protest, but a revival. There were praise songs, evangelism, and 140 young college kids being baptized. Another ray of hope. The dark despair and disarray of the Pro-Palestinian protest camps were richly eclipsed by the love for our Lord by these clear-thinking college kids.

"From the river I can see, young people who represent you and me." When we cast our gaze over the fruited plains we live on, we just need to overlook the ones who wish us, and this nation, harm. The good, and the very good, in this country so outweigh the bad and the very bad.

For example, our church, which is a Bible believing church, continues to grow like a weed. With less than 1,000 people attending each week, 270 of those attending are kids. Kids of all ages. I mean, you walk into our church on a Sunday, and there are young people all over the place! All with hearts on fire for Jesus!

The biggest problem we still have in this country is leadership. We need God fearing, America loving, Constitution following people in all levels of leadership. And media which is destructive and dismissive to our way of life, we need to eschew. That is it. We start with those two things, and the rest will follow. Then we can all proudly proclaim, "From the river we can see, our sweet land of liberty."
