Dear Editor,

Today in this world there is so much bitterness and darkness. Not seeing much light, we often catch ourselves being pulled under with all the weight the world has to offer. The light that we once saw shining is quickly fading and the question is, “Why?”

Could it be that we’re thinking more and more about ourselves? Could it be that our problems have become so big that to help another out would be too much? Or could it be that our light wasn’t strong to begin with so we put it out because we felt powerless?

The real question here is, “Who’s the real problem?” Who’s behind all this? Satan has pushed us into peril because his time is almost up. He has pushed us so far under the weight of the world that we don’t have the energy to love or the time to be loved and now to think about God and what He wants for us would require too much.

If we would give our problems to God, our heart wouldn’t feel so heavy anymore and we would have the light that’s in us to shine forever brighter because where there is light, there is love, for God is love.

Perhaps we'd be more inclined to fix our problems if we stopped blaming them on legends and myths - like Satan and G-d. Rather what we should do is face our REAL problems with REAL solutions and actions as opposed to wasting our time on prayer.

Lets, as a society, make strides toward reality and stop depending on archaic and irrational belief systems to solve our problems! When will we learn that we must DO SOMETHING, other than pray, when we want to FIX SOMETHING?

I think the bible tells us that faith without action is no good, so yes we must put positive action with our faith. Our action should be inspired by God the almighty who has all power in his hands to change things.

Matt, I now realize why you have been bitter. Give it to God because just you not believing satan is real doesn't change the truth that he is and he is angry!there is nothing man power or man wisdom can do to stop him at his work in our lives! Prayer and faith is our warfare against him. Life without prayer is like a car in the middle of a train track with no gas while a train is coming with you stuck behind the seatbelt! The end result is disaster and death. without trusting God, you are that car with no gas about to be demolished. I know you don't enjoy being misserable. No one does! Wouldn't you rather be sure of the truth before you get set on the tragic belief that none of this is real? God allows us to choose between life and death, blessings and cursings and even tells you to choose life, however, if you choose not to believe then you choose death and cursing which is satans area of expertise! How many TRUE christians do you see miserable or never having enough? If they are TRUE christians you will know them by their fruits or the fact they always come out on top and are always kind and not troubled! They trust their and your Creator/Father. This kind of life is very real! Without trusting God, you can't have it. Do you really believe you evolved from animals or from a big boom? The human soul(mind, will and emotions)alone should testify against that! Our Father created us in His image and gave us free will! If you choose to go to hell, that's your choice using your free will. I know it's hard to believe this becouse satan has been given control in too many lives through their choice to not believe! That doesn't chang the truth that satan wants to use you as a puppet to destroy you and others through you. satan is furiouse at God and he knows he can hurt our Father by hurting His children. We feel the same way about our children because we were made in His image. Cut the strings and believe and accept your savior Jesus Christ! There is no other way. God wants you to choose to love Him, He won't force you. You are right in that we should take action and this is how we do it, through prayer and faith and doing the things Jesus teaches us and showed us to do. TRUE Christians' only mission in life is to bring others to Christ and out of the miserable life satan forces on them. The world has things that please us for a while, but only God has things that will please us forever! I pray that you have read this letter and atleast considered opening the eyes of your heart! Jesus is coming very soon, that's why things are getting bad in the world. satan is running out of time in gathering as many people to go with him in the pit of hell where God is sending him. It hurts God to see some of His children headed there. It wasn't ment for His children however many have chose to go that way through being deceived by satan. Noone in there right mind would want to go there on purpose, that's why satan is an expert in deceiving and tricking as many as he can. I will not be deceived and I pray that you wont either. With God in our lives we can stay on top in the world and nothing that goes on around us will move or shake us because it's not for us. It's a part of satans deception! If you still don't believe me then I challeng you to find out for yourself. Don't take my word for it. Look in the bible even if you are searching for ways to prove it not to be true, God's word will tug at your heart and you will know without a doupt that we have our Father /Creator and we also have an enemy satan and all his evil cohorts. as always with unconditional love and faith that the truth will find you,
your friend Christina ( not believing is insane! It's doing the same thing in over and over and expecting a different result. it's like spinning wheels not going anywhere. It's time for some people to change their choice even if it means letting go of everything you thought you needed so you can find everything you have always needed!)

YOUR LIGHT IS SHINNING AND YOU ARE GIVING PEOPLE HOPE. MATTHEW-10-32 WHO SO EVER THEREFORE SHALL CONFESS ME BEFORE MEN HIM WILL
I CONFESS ALSO BEFORE MY FATHER WHICH IS IN HEAVEN, PSALM 14-1 THE FOOL HAS SAID IN HIS HEART THERE IS NO GOD. WITH OUT THE LOVE OF GOD THERE IS NO HOPE.

Jeremy, don't stop what you are doing! God is good and tells us to testify of His goodness! It's ALWAYS the right thing to do in ANY situation! Only through Him can we get through anything! LOVE NEVER FAILS!!! and God IS love!!!
