Why the Children of Our Future Generation?

I cannot understand why so many children are having to lose their life to the hands of others. It is not fair for all of this to be going on in this world. Does the person on the other end other end of the gun realize that they are ruining families’ lives? Do they ever think about the pain they are causing? Do they for one moment think about what the consequences are of their actions? All of this killing is destroying the future generation of our future leaders and decision makers. What makes a person do what they do? What goes on in the mind of that kind of person who thinks about destruction and killing all of the time? Do they not realize that they are killing someone’s child, sister, brother, son, daughter, niece, nephew? Those families will never get to see their children grow up. They will never get to see them get married. They will never get to see them bring home their grandchildren. They will never get to see them experience life, and the joys and sorrows if it. they will never get to sit and talk to their children and tell them just how much they love them. They will never get to hug and kiss them goodnight. They will never get to have family get together’s with them.

Just thinking about this really hurts my heart. Everyone has the right to live a full life whether it be happy or sad. No one has the right to take anyone’s life from them except God. Life is a precious gift, and once it is gone there is no coming back from that. There’re no do overs. Those children did not deserve to die like that. All we can do is pray every day for the families who’ve lost their children due to school shootings. One thing I can truly say is that they will not have to suffer with the troubles in this world anymore. They are in heaven with the Father forevermore.

Please help me pray for the families who lose their children on yesterday, and for all of those who have lost children due to school shootings. They had a bright future that was abruptly taken from them for no reason. Pray for the families, keep them in your prayers, and pray that God will give them strength during this time of grief and pain. Pray that God will wipe their tears from their eyes and comfort them. No one knows except the Father as to why this happened, and what the person who did it was thinking, and their thoughts behind it. Pray that God will give them peace, in Jesus’ name Amen.

This is an invitation to accept Jesus as your personal Lord and Savior. Accept Jesus today. He loves and cares for you. He laid down His life for us all that we may be free from sin. He is waiting to change your life, and to give you a new life in Him. It will be the best decision you will ever make in your life for your eternal life.

For everyone who calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved. God bless, stay safe, may the Father’s love shine in you and through you that others may see Him in you. Thank you as always for joining me on my journey with Food for the Soul.

Prayer for Today: Matthew 18:3-5

We are all God’s children.

and said, Verily I say unto you, Except ye be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven. Whosoever therefore shall humble himself as this little child, the same is greatest in the kingdom of heaven. And whoso shall receive one such little child in my name receiveth me. Matthew 18:3‭-‬5 KJV https://bible.com/bible/1/mat.18.3-5.KJV

Spirit of Wisdom Bible Verses

When we were very young, we did not know a lot about anything, but as we began to grow older, we wanted to know about lots of things. As we age, we learn wisdom along the way. We experience things that we never thought we would. As time comes and goes away, we know more than we ever did in the beginning when we were just learning.

True wisdom can be found in the Word of God, but we have to get into it to learn it. I want to share these Scriptures with you, and they are the Spirit of Wisdom. I pray they will touch your soul. Feel free to share them with those you love. God bless.

I have really enjoyed sharing these Scriptures with you. All of these verses are from the King James Version Bible.

If you have not talked to Jesus in a while, or if you have never talked to Him before, He is waiting to hear from you. He is waiting to give you a new life, and that new lie is in Him. He is ready to change your life for the better. Go to God in prayer and pour your heart out to him, and when you do, ask Him to come into your heart to be your personal Lord, and Savior. It will be the best decision you will ever make in your life for your eternal life. He is waiting with arms wide open to receive you today.

As always, thank you for joining me on my journey with Food for the Soul. Stay safe and have a wonderful Labor Day weekend.

The Sounds 0f Blackness-Various Artists

This is the video of Optimistic- It is graphic, but it was what was going on at the time. Listen to the words of the song.
This is the song Jesus is Love by Lionel Richie
This song is I’m Blessed by Charlie Wilson (featuring T.I.)

These are just a few songs that I wanted to share. Listen to the words in the first video. There are some graphic scenes in this video, but this is what was going on in the world at that time, but seeing that reminds me of all of the hate that is in the world, but through it all, God still gave them joy. Look at the smiles on the children’s faces. Innocent children living in a time of war, genocide, destruction, devastation, dead bodies in the streets of innocent people. I know those children are grown now, and have been for quite some time, but the fact remains there is still war going on in this world. Will it ever end? Even in the bad times, we still must believe that God will step in and make it right. There is still hope for this world, and Jesus is the hope we need. He is the one who can and will make this right. The enemy came to steal, kill, and to destroy, but Jesus came that we may have live, and life more abundantly, running over, living life to the fullness of joy everlasting.

The Lord Will Make a Way-The Sounds of Blackness-This song gives us hope that God will make a way where there seems to be no way. Even in our circumstances that we go through, He is making a way for us to get through those circumstances. We are never alone in anything we face. He said that He would never leave us nor forsake us, that He would not leave us alone. He will be with us even until the end of the age. Let this song fill your heart with praise to God, and thank Him for all He has done in your life, and is still doing this very minute. God bless.

Revelation 22:2-In the midst of the street of it, and on the either side of the river, was there the tree of life, which bare twelve manners of fruits, and yielded her fruit every month; and the leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations. (KJV)

I hope you will enjoy the music. As I said previously, the first video has graphic scenes in it, but please understand the times that this video was made in. The world was going through a lot back then just as it is now. I hope you are not offended by it. You are more than welcome to leave your comments and what you think about it.

For all of you who do not know, I am an ordained Minister. I have been since 2016. I kept it to myself because I did not want to be treated differently, but I do want to be respected. I am still who I am, I just live for Jesus. I try my best to encourage everyone by sharing the Word of God through my articles, and through my podcast, Food for the Soul. If you would like to listen to any of my shows, you can find them on Spotify, or wherever you listen to podcasts. If you have any questions about spirituality, or any advice, leave it in the comment section and I will get back with you.

Until next time, thank you for joining me on my journey with Food for the Soul. God bless, stay safe, and have a wonderful day.

This is one of my shows from June 2021. I hope you enjoy it, and be blessed by it. Thanks for listening.
