News or no news?

On my way into work this morning I was listening to my favorite talk show station, 91.7WCSG, with this morning's host being Herman Caine, another favorite of mine on that station. This was a 're-run' as Herman was on vacation this week and I was listening to the show that would have started off this week and I found myself giggling at Herman's blunt way of saying the truth and wondering if I could have the kind of 'vacation' he was about to enjoy. He was saying how he was not only going on vacation, but he was going on a 'fast' of sorts from ALL news media. He was, for one whole week, turning off all news networks and refusing to hear anything anymore of the foolish liberal media and their biased reporting. No more reports on how the Obama Administration was turning down assistance from other countries who have experience in oil spill clean-up, how they are mis-handling everything from health-care to taxes to spending to not securing our borders. Herman refers to the health-care reform as 'health-care DE-forming' - love it! He tells it like it is, as do the majority of the speakers on afr.net/WCSG. Herman Cain pulls no punches on the fact that he is an African-American man who opposes nearly everything Obama. He plainly states that he is fully aware that they are both considered black men & that one of them may or may not actually be an American citizen - LOL. I admit I have hesitated around other African-American friends of mine on my normally staunch position against Obama & his administration. I have seen how his election had warmed the hearts and brought pride in the election of a black man to the President of America and it pains me to have him turn out to be such a disappointment and shameful example of anything American, especially the presidency, so I cannot even imagine how emotionally impacting that can be to the people that for at least a moment he made so proud ~ that is until I had the privelage of listening to Herman Caine ("In the Morning with Herman Caine"). Like I said, Herman says it like it is, calls it like it is. So as I listened along with his program on my way in to work I thought for a moment how joyful his 'vacation' sounded ~ no news to bring you down for an entire week! Could I do that too? I must admit I've become somewhat of a news junkie but I've also noticed that the news doesn't really change all that much. It's the same topics, day after day, with the same results: more ignorance, more foolishness, more liberal~left-wing media bias, more unread bills being shoved down our throats, more & more of nothing. No results, nothing happy, nothing to be proud of and nothing to look forward to except Rapture & Armageddon (from my perspective at times). It's difficult then to decide how to move forward. For me I think a break from the news too would be a welcome relief yet I find myself strangely addicted to continuing on~kind of like watching a disaster take place, you want to avert your eyes yet somehow cannot. I also keep waiting for the big "DUH" moment to take place so I can use it to reach the ignorant & blind members of my family and friends who are still wearing the darkest of shades over their eyes, still wanting desperately to believe that Obama is new John F. Kennedy, alive & well, ready to make America into the Camelot that Kennedy was sure to bring about in the '60s when his life and all their dreams were cut short with his assassination. But, alas, the "DUH" moments come and go and the blinders stay on for the desire to believe a beautiful lie is proving, once again, proving to be more desirable than the Truth, making the prophetic Word(s) of the Lord truer than ever....."II Timothy 3:1-5,7 "But realize this, that in the last days difficult times will come. For men will be lovers of self, lovers of money, boastful, arrogant, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, unloving, unforgiving, malicious gossips, without self-control, brutal, haters of good, treacherous, reckless, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of god; holding to a form of godliness, although they have denied its power; always learning and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth." Scary, that last line, isn't it?..'always learning and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.'..one way or another folks ALL WILL see the truth~ if not here, then THERE, all will know God is God and all will bow to Him. I pray today, and always, that this will happen for you BEFORE it's too late, that you will not be blind to the End, for the End is near.
