What has happened to the USA?

The country I live in is not one I recognize.

We are more than lost. 

We are so selfish and me oriented.

We do not pursue excellence and embrace mediocrity.

Chrisitians sit by silently as the USA goes against the Bible and God in every way.

Elementary School students are gunned down.

Socialism is accepted.

Handouts are expected.

Abortion, the murder of babies, is fine.

Step on everyone you can to get to the top.

Division is welcomed and unity is pushed aside.

We do not keep our priorities.

We believe lies people say rather than learn the real truth.

We have forgotten the lessons learned the hard way in the past.

We live in denial. We actively choose to ignore what is in front of us.

We excuse immorality.

We take a stand on nothing or on things that are wrong or do not matter.

What has happened to us? How have we gotten to this place? How have we sat by idly and not stopped it? 

When are we going to realize this is our business? 

These are the thoughts of a woman with a broken heart and lots of questions... who realizes she is part of the problem.

What gets to you? What grabs your heart? What makes you question things?
