My Letter to a Sinful World (warning, a bit of a vent)

By V.J. Wakefield

Dear World,

I’m not changing. Let me explain. This year has been the worst in my opinion and I understand that. There was a virus that wiped out innocent lives, people are slipping into their old ways, lives have been taken and racism rained down like a hurricane. You need to change. God has always been with us. Don’t you see it? The Bible says in Psalms 91, He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High will be in the shadow of the almighty. So why aren’t you going to God when times are hard? Why is it so hard for you to open the book and see the truth? Why do you want to be blind? I don’t, but you do! Additionally, my people are being insulted, harassed, killed on the daily, and yet you watch it happen. Government, why must you keep silent while my people are being hurt? Why must this all be? We are not of you and we know that. We know that you hate us. You take our God’s name in vain. AFTER EVERYTHING HE HAS DONE FOR YOU!! I am so sick and tired of this year, this world and every evil thing on it. Why do you focus on the darkness instead of the light in front of you? Why do you ignore your creator? Why do you want us to change? To submit? Why???

Guess what.

We are not changing our faith.

I am not going to change.

We are not quitters. We are God’s children for goodness sakes. We never give up. We expect the world to hate us. To mock us. To ridicule us, to call us liars, deceviers, evil, horrid. But we won’t submit. I won’t submit. I rather please a God who loves me and prepares a place for me in Heaven, than satisfy a world that hates me.

I am a Christian

I will never change.

From, the resident child of God,

V.J.

(P.S at least my God is real and your idols aren’t).
