Do any of you remember the days that we could go weeks without some real breaking news? I really don't think it was too long ago. I find it hard to believe, but the evidence is clear, that almost weekly if not daily we are having tragic events. Not only are they natural disasters but they are acts of terror and evil. I just want to recount the recent weeks and every incident or event that has taken place to prove once again that these are the last days and there are signs of the times happening everywhere.
Some of you might already think, "Well this is the most depressing blog I've ever seen." It might be hard to see or read some of this but if you don't open your eyes and know what is happening then you won't be prepared.

I left out the articles about people who got caught trying to plan a shooting or attempting a shooting but there were lots of those. Thanks to our Police and Law enforcement. I had to talk to my 7 year old today about what to do if someone breaks out with gunfire. Sad world but once again it is better for him to be prepared then be caught off guard without any knowledge of it at all.
Not to mention the war that is going on against religion. Don't we have a 1st amendment for a reason?
I could list all those incidents if I wanted to sit here at the computer for the rest of my life. You have heard about it all I know. This country was based on God. It was founded on principle, morals and God-given rights. If you don't like a Nativity being displayed or don't like Christmas trees then leave. Why does anyone care? If you want to put a menorah up go ahead. It is your right as well as ours, as Christians, to celebrate the birth of our Savior.
Stay tuned for post on how to be positive and have hope through all of this.
