Headlines of Darkness

Headlines of Darkness by Bill Wilson
Each morning before writing this post, I peruse the headlines to get an idea of what to write. Some of the stuff that is going on looks like remnants of a satirical magazine from the 1970s, like Mad or Cracked. Problem is, these are real and people actually are making these headlines and other people are believing them.

I can see how so many people are angry because the headlines are angry. Anger begets anger. Other headlines are just stupid-news not even worthy of coverage. Still others are headlines from stories that make no sense, falling somewhere between fake news and outright personal attacks.

If you don't have Christ in your life, you may well be full of fear, anxiety, and depression. Read on if you dare.

One of the most humorous headlines this morning is: "Biden campaign pitch: Make America normal again." Really? His idea of normal is abortion on demand with no restrictions, men saying they are women and using women's restrooms and playing women's sports. Biden's also noted for smelling women's hair and hugging them whether they want him to or not, using his position to help his son bilk China out of millions, saying that his biggest climate change proposal is to get rid of Donald Trump.

Yep, that's Democratic frontrunner for President Joe Biden, wanting to make America "normal" again. He's a 76 year old white guy-isn't his Party the one that hates white privilege and believes old white men are the problem of society? He's the frontrunner of the Democratic Party hypocrisy machine.

Oh, then there are those who hate, and just want to call everyone else haters. How about these headlines: "CBS hosts laugh at dumping milkshakes on "right wing" politicians."

Actress: "White Women complicit in abortion laws causing Black women to die,"

Pelosi cover-up remark seemed to unravel Trump psychologically, Democrat: "Trump Administration murdering children,"

Pelosi: Anti-abortion laws about white guys "fear" of women,"

"Abortion activists scream obscenities at pro-life teen,"

New York Times: "Pregnancy kills. Abortion saves,"

"States enacting abortion bans thought it OK to rape slaves,"

NYC Department of Education: "Individualism' Is 'White Supremacy Culture"

These are just from this morning.

These are the headlines of darkness. They reflect dark hearts and dark intentions. If you ponder them too long, they will have a dark impact on you. They are examples of the times in which we live. They are the product of the lights of the world being hidden under a basket-or,

Being hidden, if you will, inside the four walls and the roof of churches across America. Yes, I'm big on getting out and engaging with people, shining that light even if it is uncomfortable.

II Timothy 1:7 says, "For God has not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind."

Christ said in Matthew 5:16, "Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven."

That's the answer to headlines of darkness.
