Uncommon History

I have spent much time in recent months researching and writing for various history related writing projects and I want to share some information I believe to be of the utmost importance. Simply put, no matter what connections you make between the history and the present, I have rediscovered the fact that unless you keep the first things first, you can get buried in the details and nuances that bury this world in struggle and turmoil.

No matter how much history repeats itself or how much you see the darker forces working toward grasping more and more power, it is essential to remain committed to God and hold on to His promises.

It is a valiant struggle to engage in battling the forces that try to drive our nations and organizations towards an undesirable end. That said, if you (and I) are not praying, reading God’s Word, and being a blessing to those around you for the Glory of God and our savior Jesus Christ, then to what end are you working towards?

I ask this because I have found myself wandering off the path of God’s righteousness towards a new path of self righteousness. Patriotism is a worthy and noble cause, but as citizens of Heaven, it is our utmost responsibility to remain committed to the one who makes ALL of it possible.

As we search and research we may begin to drift to the idea that God may just not be in total control after all. Please be rest assured that God is indeed in control. If you are having your own doubts, please…PLEASE…step away from the histories of the world for a while and return to the good book!
