For Many Are Called but Few Are Chosen

As a writer who has written about everything from my unwavering Faith, to my love for family; from freedom, liberty, patriotism, music, sports... to this exceptional Country!

From headline news and events of the day, to my personal politics - nothing has been off limits!

As far as I am concerned - nothing has been off limits.

But that doesn’t mean that I haven't been dissuaded, prevented, and outright threatened, from approaching certain subjects.

More than once, I have been warned!

It doesn't mean that I am never confronted.

I have been mocked, labeled, canceled, and unfriended; called the vilest of all names... more than once!

It comes with the territory, in the subjects which I have chosen to write about, for well over a decade now.

In my articles, I don't expect to win friends or recruit masses, who will think just like me!

I am simply sharing my beliefs, my thoughts - a different perspective.

Perspective, often filled with passion, of a life, long-lived.

A different perspective is sure to bring conflict and criticism at times, it should never cost someone their life --- but it did!

A young man was deprived of a life, long-lived....

Many are called, few are chosen!

I believe that Charlie Kirk was chosen by God, for such a time as this!

He had a way about him; a gentle, unflappable spirit.

He was an extremely gifted young man and could debate any subject. Not because he was told to make the best case for any given subject, but, because he believed in the stances he took, with all of his heart, mind & soul!

One could not (or should not) approach him unprepared, with a gotcha, they would always be challenged to back it up.

Charlie could back it up!

He had a firm grasp of American history, the Constitution, the Holy Bible, and the way they are all intertwined.

In the after moments, when I first heard that Charlie had been shot, after asking God to spare him, and then realizing... that he never had a chance, I wrote the following:

"I have been following his career since the beginning. All he ever wanted was for kids to hear a different perspective; about America, about precious life, about what it means to have a personal relationship with Jesus Christ....

In another post I wrote that "a different perspective", was cause enough to justify murder, in the mind of an indoctrinated individual.

We have been in a season of such evil, represented through unspeakable acts. From young innocent school children, in prayer, gunned down by an unhinged lunatic... to a young immigrant on a train, just trying to make her way in America, slashed and murdered by a crazed maniac's knife-weilding hand.

Culminating in yet another senseless act, the execution of Charlie Kirk, followed by our remembrance of the horrific events of 9/11.

It has been a lot to absorb!

To my readers, my prayer is that you are involved in a Bible-believing, Christ-centered church, or that you soon will be.

As Charlie, I believe that Jesus is Christ, the son of a living God.

The way, the truth & the life, and that no man gets to the Father, but through the son.

My prayer is that you will come to know him and accept him as your personal Savior!

Also, if you don't know and have only heard things, I humbly ask that you research Charlie Kirk and watch the entirety of any of his speeches, Q&A, debates & interviews.

To spew vileness against someone or something you know absolutely nothing about, because someone has been in your ear, is detrimental and futile.

Yes, I too have seen his words twisted, and taken out of context.

I know better - if you don't - why repeat them?

To truly be educated, no matter how high you have climbed the academic ladder, must include common sense, reason, and the ability to research for yourself!

I pray for revival, and for a great coming-together as Americans, a time for healing, and for this horror story that we have been in..... to end, with no more casualties.

God please Bless and Keep these United States of America!

Our church service ended with this song this morning, I will end with it as well.
