We head to LaCrosse today, the man for his hearing aid appt, me for PT. So glad it worked out we could go together.
In John 17 Jesus prays for his disciples. It is a beautiful prayer. He is praying for us (vs 20) isn’t that exciting to know that Jesus is specifically praying for us.
I read this letter to the Editor yesterday…
https://lacrossetribune.com/opinion/letters/camille-degaz-trump-wasted-taxpayers-time-and-money/article_3554c6ee-f8bf-11ed-9fad-83f4ff5648b5.html
I responded with a letter of my own. The parameters of the newspaper didn’t allow me to fully state what I think because they are afraid of being sued or hurting the feelings of some “woke” person who obviously believes she is entitled to take, yes I say take, steal, use at will someone else’s hard-earned money to ease her lack of funds. It doesn’t matter that she is on disability. That isn’t what is preventing her from living a full, happy life. Her idea that someone (albeit a rich someone) should take her clothing $$ and give that to her so she doesn’t have to live on assistance… ludicrous thinking. Where does this thought process come from?
This brings me to wonder why anyone would think their college loans should be forgiven? After all, THEY decided to go to college. THEY applied for and listened to the terms of the loan BEFORE they got it and signed for it. Why is it now taxpayers who must foot the bill? It DOES NOT MATTER if they changed their mind about their career, failed the course, or didn’t find employment in their field. THAT IS NOT MY PROBLEM! Nor should it be, EVER my problem.
This nation is raising thousands of entitled young people, THAT is the problem with what is going on now.
Young adults who want to make more money than they are willing to put forth work for. They want to carry their water bottles and cell phones everywhere they go. If they don’t feel like showing up for work they just call in. Makes no sense. Not a clue why employers put up with this.
Yes, I know, I’m an old fuddy-duddy who probably made their children pay for their own college classes, probably expected them to GET A JOB and buy their own toys, probably expected them to do chores at home BECAUSE THEY ARE PART OF A FAMILY UNIT. Also probably expected them: not to swear, to attend church each week, to help out a neighbor without compensation, to wait for things they couldn’t afford until they had the money to afford it. Yep, that’s me. I also didn’t get too excited when they got hurt (unless it was serious) didn’t care if they got dirty, and didn’t allow them to come and go as they pleased.
Yep, that’s me. I even packed lunch when they ran away so they didn’t have to worry about getting hungry.
All of which is probably child abuse today.
Okay rant over.
I’m off and running to get my responsibilities taken care of so that I don’t infringe on other people’s responsibilities.
know you are prayed for, even if I don’t agree with your thought process, God will sort it out the way that gives glory to him.
