Tired to the bone

I don’t know if I’m the only one that is tired to the bone. I watch the news and it’s the same thing day after day. Now, they are going after churches.

Really? FoxNews.com reported, “One of the anti-ICE agitators who stormed into a Twin Cities church Sunday has also been accused of harassing congregants at Secretary of War Pete Hegseth’s church in Washington, D.C.

“Anti-ICE agitators stormed Cities Church sanctuary on Sunday, causing chaos and insisting that one of the pastors is the acting director of ICE’s St. Paul field office. Protesters were heard shouting “ICE out” and “Justice for Renee Good” in the middle of services in front of shocked churchgoers. A man with the group was identified as William Kelly, who goes by “DaWokeFarmer” on TikTok, where he has over 66,000 followers, and regularly posts politically charged videos attacking ICE, President Donald Trump and members of his administration with profanity. 

“A member of Christ Church in Washington, D.C., who asked to remain anonymous, told Fox News Digital that he immediately recognized Kelly as a part of a group that has been pestering worshipers on a routine basis.”

I saw the video that showed a bunch of hoodlums yelling in the faces of churchgoers in Minnesota. And, of course, fired CNN anchor Don Lemon was in the middle of them claiming white supremacy and that kind of church is not a church he’d say is a loving church. Whatever…he’s a washed-up correspondent trying to put Ramen on his table after losing his cushy job with the left-leaning news entity.

DaWokeFarmer guy is a rude, insulting guy with a vocabulary to fit. If it doesn’t have an f-bomb in it, it isn’t coming out of his mouth.

What most Christians understand, though, is that people like him are dealing with Christians in a church on a surface level; Christians understand that protesters storming churches are dealing with God and his house.

They have no idea what kind of trouble they have brewing in their lives storming God’s house of worship. They will pay in a way that only God can make them pay, heaven and hell lie in the mid-point.

I was called out last week for the cartoon I chose to put on the Opinion page. The person felt it was distasteful and was upset about it. For reference, the cartoon showed a crowd of protesters discussing that they’d have to get a replacement for Renee Good, who was shot in Minneapolis when she drove her car into an ICE agent. 

People make bad decisions all of the time; this particular time cost Renee Good her life. The people around her, proven to be rabblerousers that travel across the nation creating hate and discontent, i.e. DaWokeFarmer. The reader felt, I guess, that I placed no value in Good’s life. On the contrary, I looked at Good as a lost soul that is now presiding in heaven or hell – not my call on where.

The Department of Justice is working on tracing the money trail. During Donald Trump’s first tenure in office, it was discovered protesters were paid and traveled from site to site causing problems. That has not changed – look at the signs that are printed and show up across the nation with the same message, look, etc. That is an organized mob with funding behind them.

Now, they start going after churches where people find comfort with God. They won’t make people stop going to church, God’s house doesn’t work that way. They may make it uncomfortable for us, but God wins in the end.

What I do find happening in my own life is that I’m getting very tired – bone tired, of the crap going on. I’ve dug my heels in, as I imagine many people have, and try to decipher what is right from wrong. 

I trust in Jesus that we’ll be safe and remember the verse in Mathew 10:28 that says “Do not fear those who kill the body but are unable to kill the soul; but rather fear Him who is able to destroy both soul and body in hell.”

So, I think as Christians, we can expect protests in our House, but we have to remember we have God on our side.
