America Has Lost Track of Time!

Daily writing prompt
Which activities make you lose track of time?

The United States is closer to political collapse and chaos than it has been since the Civil War. The political anger and hatred that is spreading and growing is dangerous and can easily ignite a firestorm of political violence. America has lost track of time. The time to save America is now. The way to save it is rational debate, kindness, and long-term compromise on the issues that are shaking its foundations.

The uncompromising political paths chosen by both the hard left and the hard right are about to blow America apart. Political leaders in the USA need to turn down the anger and accusations before it is too late.

The far right and the far left aren’t making America great and they’re not saving democracy. They’re both making a horrible mess. It’s time for those who lean right and those who lean left to come together, compromise, and restore sanity to the USA before it blows apart in front of our eyes.

Cowards use political violence. There’s no place for political violence in a decent country — no violent actions and no vicious words. It’s time for peacemakers to speak up and to call on people to replace anger, accusation, and hatred with rational debate, compromise and human kindness.

Jesus said: “Blessed are the peacemakers,” “Bless those who curse you,” and “Love your enemies.” Peacemaking is God’s will. It’s time to take Christ’s words seriously.

About Steve Simms

I like to look and think outside the box. In college I encountered Jesus Christ and I have been passionate about trying to get to know Him better ever since. My wife and I long to see the power and passion of the first Christ-followers come to life in our time. I have written a book about our experiences in non-traditional church, called, "Beyond Church: An Invitation To Experience The Lost Word Of The Bible--Ekklesia." If you need encouragement, search for: Elephants Encouraging The Room and/or check out my Amazon author page. Thank you!
