Insurance
Think of the United States as a motor car, with Donald Trump as the accelerator pedal, the republicans as the foot brake and the democrats as the handbrake. Here’s poor old Donald, trying to get the country moving along, while the never-Trumpers keep stomping on the brake pedal at the slightest hint of menace, while the ever-Trumpers intervene to release it. Meanwhile, the democrats have the handbrake on full and won’t let go.
With a driver as determined as Trump and an engine as gung-ho and powerful as the United States, the handbrake is not as effective as the democrats would like it to be, because the vehicle’s front-wheel-drive manages to keep the car moving along with the rear wheels skiddering rather than turning. But this is a problem, because it slows its mobility and puts a lot of excess strain on a vehicle not engineered to constantly work so hard or so improperly, diminishing its resilience. Moreover, it uses a lot more fuel, albeit contaminated, in the form of duplicitous rhetoric, and this sort of driving is not covered by any warranty. Fortunately though, it is covered by a demonic-proof insurance policy with the Providential Indemnity Alliance of Divinty.
So if the vehicle should come to grief, a full replacement will be made in the form of a Heavenly Chariot, which can only be operated by the elect(ed), disabling all intervention from the worldly elite, who will be assigned to grovelling along a more treacherous and darker road, under their own nefarious authority. Which should make their day because they thrive on treachery.
Crucially, the insurance will be voided if it is found the vehicle came to grief through the intentional malfeasance of the front seat operators. Just because the vehicle is not performing as it was designed to, is not an acceptable reason for sabotaging it to claim the insurance. The insurance is there for an unavoidable eventuality, after every effort has been made to keep it satisfactorily maintained and in working order, and only in a total write-off will a full settlement be forthcoming. A write-off to the extent of its inability to effect any momentum, nor any further prospect of viably accommodating its occupants, as in the event of a nuclear catastrophe, not perpetrated by the vehicle operators in question.
A Long Time Ago
What is happening in the world today is just a contemporary variation of parallel scenarios since time began. Today’s turbulent world is not a new situation, just a normal course of events from a historical perspective. It’s only new in contemporary terms.
This being the case, it is futile to take it too seriously and become anxious about the outcome, because there will be no outcome other than a temporary truce between God and satan, after which, it’s on again as an evolutionary revolving door. What you need to be doing is what you came to this world to do in the first place, which is to reunite with God. There’s no point being here just to be traumatised by contemporary world events.
Jesus advised us to be “passersby”. Let the world be the world. How it conducts itself is none of your business, it’s how you conduct yourself as you pass through it, is what matters. Just focus on where YOU are going, and trust in God to guide you safely through the tumult of human existence to your rightful Divine existence. The more you get involved, either objectively or interactively, the harder it will be for God to guide you through it. After all, His job is to guide you safety around the machinations, so if you want to tug at Him into sticking your nose in (where for a prodigal pilgrim it doesn’t belong, I might add), you’ll have a very fraught time of it, and may not make it home at all. Focus on the destination so that the present world becomes just a background blur, where world events are nothing but atmospheric noise, and won’t invoke your indignation. You don’t want to withdraw from the world altogether, where it becomes so blurry it’s a struggle to provide for your sufficiency. Just maintain a balanced, God-sanctioned perspective. You are God’s child and have been called home. Playtime is over and it’s a long way home.
If you dilly dally, so that darkness encroaches before you get there, you’ll be left to fend for yourself, because God cannot see to guide you in the dark. That is satan’s forte, where he’ll take over and deceive you into following HIS minions, right back to where you started out. Make all the haste you can muster, as in, do not get caught up in worldly distractions. Keep your eye on the prize as if you were a contender for tennis champion of the world, only you are to overcome the world.If you dilly dally, so that darkness encroaches before you get there, you’ll be left to fend for yourself, because God cannot see to guide you in the dark.
