Thanksgiving For Our Nature of Good/Godness


I am a truly blessed individual. I have birthed four healthy, happy children with whom I have wonderful relationships. Life has presented its challenges but as my father said to me before he died,” You are a strong woman. Most people who have gone through what you have would have become drug addicts, criminals, killed someone or killed themselves but you are still standing strong with your L-seven behind.” He always called me an L-Seven, a square because of my passion for truth and justice.

This Thanksgiving I am exceptionally grateful. I think I understand what my Father meant. He was a police officer and he spent a great deal of time with the lower elements. His parties would be filled with the biggest politicians and the biggest drug dealers. He tried to teach me to be more suspicious but my faith has lifted me and allowed me to prosper in the midst of the Lions den

So today I make intercessory prayer for the addicts and criminals who have not been so favored by God. No matter how they search; no matter how they appear to prosper; no matter what successes the world brings them, they are the unfortunate ones born into a nature of weakness. Yes, they will come into many of our lives and wreak havoc, they may be members of our own family.

My experience has taught me that they cannot be reformed; they cannot be healed; they cannot change. We must build our fences to protect ourselves form them because they gravitate in the churches where they seek out the innocent and trusting to make them their victims.

This is one of the consequences of progress. In earlier cultures when one of these were found in the midst of a community a party was held to celebrate them and then push them over a cliff so that their genes could not even proliferate to the next generation.

In today’s world this 4% of the population self selects to work in the professions of law, politics and finance. These are the professions where our global societies have suffered the greatest harm because of the infiltration of freaks of nature.

So for today, lets thank God for our nature of goodness and pray for those few who were not as fortunate. Pray that they will be delivered from their painful existence. For they cannot experience love or creation. They only have the capacity to destroy and conquer. Let us pray for the salvation of their souls .
