It’s green-leaf August 2021 and more than the willows are weeping.
Governments everywhere elected to legislate have handed over all heath decision making to unelected bureaucrats, in the U.S. allowing power-crazed Democrats the ability to force the great nation into deep decline.
Republicans upon whom many of us are waiting to “DO SOMETHING!”, spend the lion’s share of their time striving to make news headlines with absurd “watch Senator-fill-in-the-blank rip Democrat-fill-in-the-blank a new one!”
The “News” on Fox is whoever happens to look luscious in her latest bikini and a myriad of clickbait headlines.
Hopeful hangers-on wait for talking head celebrities to come and save them.
Parents in some regions worry if their children will be able to start the new school year.
Relatives hearing a cough of a loved one wonder if it’s COVID or just another common cold cough.
Vaccinated neighbors try to find out which neighbors remain unvaxxed, so they can start to resent and report them.
It’s getting to be so bad that dog walkers take their vaxx passports with them when out walking Fido in town squares and city parks.
Pandemic scare mongering has even turned “man’s best friend” into ‘the enemy’.
Folk in regions sweltering under 100F-degree heat long for the Fall, but shudder when they remember how authorities predict the Delta variant will force more lockdowns when Autumn leaves begin to fall.
People can’t sleep at night
People can’t sleep at night. They toss and turn in their beds wondering when they can go back to what they were before a pandemic with a survival rate said to be upwards of 98 percent struck all of humanity.
Some ponder on restless nights whether the Wuhan Flu is just the seasonal flu and the common cold weaponized.
If religion, sports and even the weather can be weaponized, why not the Flu?
The latest to come down with the Flu is the home computer.
At the time of this writing, all CFP computers and i-Pads can’t call up certain websites up though any browser available. It’s a problem connected to our server, and we’ve been waiting over five hours for them to fix it!
All of those left sleepless at night and wracked with worry, quarrel and strife can take heart in knowing that past generations were also brought to the threshold of Doom and Gloom. Many, many times.
The Psalm of today “with its “Helpful Index of Sunday Responsorial Psalms and a Table of the Four-
Week Psalter for Morning and Evening Prayers in The PSALMS, St. Joseph New Catholic Version, is as follows:
Psalm 43 Prayer To Worship God Anew:
“Grant me your justice, O God,
and plead my cause against a godless nation;
rescue me from those who are deceitful and unjust.
“You, O God, are my refuge;
why have you rejected me?
Why must I go about in mourning,
while my enemy oppresses me?
“Send forth your light and your truth; they will serve as my guide.
“Let them bring me to your holy mountain,
to the place of your dwelling.
Then I will go to the altar of God,
to the God of my joy and delight,
and I will praise you with the harp,
O God, my God,
“Why are you so disheartened, O my soul?
Why do you sigh within me?
Place your hope in God;
for I will once again praise him,
my Savior and my God.”
Why is it so important to pray this and all Psalms?
Because Jesus, Mary and Joseph prayed them.
Fill tired and battle-weary hearts with peace not worry.
