Innocent people are suffering. And if we believers won't watch and pray, won't stand up and work, won't speak out against the evil.. who will? Influence on Purpose.. real leaders don't just resolve the reoccurring issue just to get it off their plates quickly for the sake of their own popularity, gain or comfort. They want to protect people. They listen well. They help create wise solutions that take the people forward on multiple levels and put them in a better position than they were in before they even experienced the problem in the first place. Be kind to the misinformed and feeble-minded. Show love to those who hate you. Be willing to stand alone, but humbly work together with others to accomplish far more.

Fully trust the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. Go with God's word. Feelings, nothing more than feelings. Sometimes they are fickle and fleeting.. and sometimes a blessing.

What you FEEL is not always REAL. So what are you experiencing today -- have you prayed about it? 

What is REAL is not always RIGHT. Lots of stuff in ..our gone sideways kinda culture..that happens shouldn’t have happened. 

What feels NATURAL is not always HEALTHY. How can it feel so good and yet be so bad? It can. 

What is POPULAR is not always BEST. Historically the majority, the crowd, the mob.. has often been wrong.

What you hear and THINK is not always TRUE. Much of what’s on the web or in the Media is way off. “Now the Bereans were more noble-minded than the Thessalonians, for they received the message with great eagerness and examined the Scriptures every day to see if these teachings were true.“ Acts 17:11

Fake news and made up forged reports aren't new at all. Spend time with Jesus and His people in God’s word to quickly recognize what’s false. Remember, 2000 years ago St. Paul had to deal with this junk. "Don't be so easily shaken or troubled by reports saying the Day Of The Lord has begun. If they claim to have a vision or revelation, or even a letter SUPPOSEDLY FROM ME, don't believe them!" 2 Thessalonians 2:2 

Give yourself permission to NOT believe everything that passes through your mind. Stop believing and doin’ the wrong things. Shoo away all that doesn’t need to be in there. It's one thing to let the birds fly over your head and quite another thing to allow them to nest in your hair. “Prove all things; hold fast that which is good.” 1 Thessalonians 5:21 Facebook.com/shareJesus
