Within The Walls

     Today, society has many voices in the limelight, but they are not all speaking IN the Voice of God.  Although politicians claim they are guarding and battling to protect the walls, some of us are voicing to be heard and to protect those within the walls. But because some are screaming louder doesn’t mean the small still voices have lesser value.

     A shade tree opinion is powerful enough to initiate a change; the type of change that will make us accountable for our personal decisions as we partake with the people we interact with daily.

     Within the walls, we need to recognize and expose Godly behaviors; then the blessings of God will have no choice but to follow, for God cannot lie. Children learn patterns and emulate behaviors, and in many cases, they adopt their parents’ image.

     Within the walls, there is a responsibility for every parent to allow their child to see God by acknowledging Jesus Christ in all that they do. Otherwise, within the walls will be the trickling effect of a nation without God. Even if we educate the masses and fall short of God’s mercy, what would be accomplished?

     As long as adulterous acts, drugs and violence in music videos are exalted, we fall short of God’s glory within the walls.
     As long as young women continue being seduced and beguiled within the walls, signs of weakness are manifested.
     As long as married men continue to disdain their wives by cheating, and women continue to welcome their behaviors, the blessings of God are forfeited. 
     As long as teens and tweens keep having babies, the premature illness will continue to be recycled within the walls.
     As long as the rivers continue to receive the blood of innocent unborn children and graves continue to receive the dead from false witnesses and crimes against each another within the walls, how can God’s blessings be released?
     As long as the political courts continue to allow trickery with deceptive words from those whose goal is to pull apart the symbols that acknowledge God and continue to pass backward laws, our nation will continue to lose value. 
     As long as our nation is being manipulated, self inflicted, and neglected from within, one should question, how does the shelter of protection of the walls secure us at all?
     As long as sins remain uncovered without the blood of Jesus, our nation will continue to be terrorized within.

     If within our walls, we begin to demonstrate the Lord, teach his values, and promote his morals and Godly behaviors then we will flourish like children of God.
     Doctors’ children usually grow up to become doctors; preachers’ children have a tendency to become preachers, and even children of attorneys more than likely study law. We have one Lord to mimic; let us pick up the torch to be like God.
