Colorado Springs visit.
Well I have been in Denver tooo long so today I was taken on a trip to Colorado Springs. I had heard so much about that placefrom early contact with a group called the Navigators, ( a christian para-church organisation). Well today was the end (opps forgive me re the Steven story, I am getting back to that and the round of thinking about poverty and street life in USA. There are new developments !)……today was the end of 90 days of prayer and continuous worship for a church in the Springs. The prayer was directed towards the nation & freedom, and the worship to perhaps an all to forgotten God. BUT not by some. Definitely not those there and many others across Woody’s land.
It was neat to be there, and neat to balance the images of Broadway and Colfax with the images of people who may in fact be poorer, but who represented those who loved a long forgotten Saviour and king.
These people despite their media stereotype are not narrow minded or old or boring or all wearing some kind of cross brand. The only cross they carried was for the love of America and for America to get back to the God of the founding fathers.
How far America has fallen..and falling and will continue to fall until some sense of black n white in a grey world is re established. I sense in myself even the fear of black n white, so grey I may have become.
There are grey areas for sure, but the problem is that the areas that need to be black n white have become grey, some non negotiables have turned to grey, no thanks to the supreme court and liberal politics.
But the tide is turning.
Yes its war. But the weapons of this warfare are spiritual. Thats what this 90 days was about.
The unraveling has begun.
Humility starts a lot of great changes.
