The After Math Of Hurricane Katrina (160 hits)

Hello:
It is great to see people doing their individual parts. I was just pondering while watering the flowers in the back yard, How many Churches, Ministers etc. are giving relief.

Now I go deeper, what do I see? What do you see?
I see mass ignorance and voidness of "God".
How many of those looters, criminals, shooters etc. go to Church?
How many Doctors, Lawyers, Business people, Engineers, people of all various business and work backgrounds are in that crowd?

I saw people that said they could not leave, but what would those same people have done if they had won the lotto in another state?
Do you mean to tell me, no one that was not able to leave have ever been out of those particular areas? Yes there are the sick, the elderly etc.
But the mass amounts of people I see are climbing walls, breaking out windows, looting shooting, commiting acts of violence etc.
This energy is enough to devote to bettering oneself.

"God" says trials and tribulations will come. Proverbs talks about people that are poorly prepared.......
New testament talks about preparation.
How many of those folks had insurance, 401k plans, education, being friendly in order to have friends for no one can do it on their own, how many people are choosing violence over prayer?
Have any of you been through a tough time, no this is not a competition to see who has had it the hardest, just trying to offer a cross reference.
I am not being hard, but love tells the truth.
You see I ponder will people do like the Israelites did.
Will they go back to the same way of life and in the future when another Katrina comes, how many will choose to stay? That was indicative by the fact that there have been recent bad hurricanes and people always chose to stay.

What do I see? I see Bobby that laughed in class during highschool and knocked the books out of Cheryl that was trying to get her education despite her circumstances, I see Joe that was a great athlete in highschool, but chose to hangout on the streets with his friends, I see Charlene that got pregnant and had 3 babies by the age of 19, but cries now for help, I see elderly people that have children that did not take advantage of sacrifices people made for them, I see people that hang out all night and sleep all day, I see people who never showed up to church but need church donations and when they get them, many will not come once stable......
No I see most of those younger people were at Mardi Gras.
Those who scream loudest tend to be those with the most abuses, because christians pray in silence, Churches etc.

Yes we need to help, "God" led me to lend my heart out for prayer to this cause, but as "God" helps, "He" points out that we are to tell the truth on both sides or be a part of the fault, thus part of the sins.
Just look at what is going on? People are deliberately thwarting help so the city can remain in mass chaos.
Many times disaster happens for us to see spiritual debauchery.
I ask you, when you see the general crowds of people, what do you see?
Can you see past the generation into the generation that created them?
Anyway enough for now.
I pray I state clearly the spiritual truth I am trying to show so we can realize specifically what we need to pray for, the before, during and after. We can pray for relief, the relief comes and the strong steal it from the weak like in those foreign countries. We can pray for the city, but what about the negatives of the city that created this mass chaos.
I hope yall feel what I have to say.
You don't have to agree with me, just look on the internet, news, papers etc.
I see a whole lot of people that were ignorant, can't talk legibly, no jobs, etc.
Imagine if you were in an interview with some of these people? Ask them the question what have you done for yourself, what are you willing to do for yourself, what are you going to do after this is all over? make more babies, drink all night again? Run the streets, get another criminal charge? Rob the weak and poor?
Just think about it.
All truth helps, the more truth, the more we are able to solve the problems past the superficial.
"God" Bless
Sincerely
William

Part II:
For anyone that may disagree with me than this is what you do; if you are a female, you go down there and risk rape. If you are a male, you go down there and get your head bust, then come back and tell me what you think and feel then.
I know they are only showing us, but remember training starts at home.
We can'r love black people and not say what is right or wrong because of color.
We have to start with us because there are a whole lot of folk that are confirming negative things/views about us as a people.
When you look in those convention centers I see a lot of color in there.
No matter how balanced you think this world is racism still exists and it is not just white people. Ever dealt or heard about those jews and what happens when blacks enter their neighborhoods, ever been to a convenience store that sells liquor and guns and have that Iranian watch you more than white folks do or is worse than rude?
Ever hear what those Oriental people say about us?
I have.
You as a black college student don't usually come from a good home, most of you come from hell, streets etc. and you are in college fighting your behinds off for a better way.
We all have bright friends that chose another path. We all have moms and dads that want handouts, cousins, friends etc.
This disaster shows many realms.
To black students it should propel you into a higher height iof intellectualism to achieve.
No we need to start with us which affects the outward view of us for as much as it will affect them.
No what yall see is a lot of black on the black that are weaker etc.
I mean for "Christ" sakes, why would people fight with their lives to halt help for the city?
Halt help to remove all those dead bodies.
Yes there are people trying to help, but from what yall are seeing there are far more negative.
And this is not the media faults, they are covering what people are doing at the risk of their lives also.
"God" Bless to all.

My mother was on that same idea. she told me that when she and my father went to New Orleans the first thing they said was "This is a sinful place". A place where you can by alcohol anywhere even in wal-mart and ABC'S next to where children go. The Alcohol isnt the only thing that makes that place sinful its whole atmosphere. Mardi Gras is something else and when i was younger i always wanted to go but my cousin brought a tape back last year and i cant see myself having a good time at something like that. I am not judging at all and definetly not saying that they deserve it because i have done some things in my short live 19yrs, but there is a reason for everything and it happen to some good people too but for the ones that believe God will bring them through and have a wonderful testimony to tell. for the ones that lose faith and think they can do it on their own, they will learn. I dont know if the people in New Orleans would like to share what they think but personaly i would like to know. Once again William nice blog. I love the way you put things.
