God’s Word to You is 1 John 3:13
13 Do not be surprised, brothers, that the world hates you.
Persecution comes in many forms. Yesterday Facebook banned me for a week. I posted hate speech. I didn’t intend to. I didn’t think my words were hateful. They definitely weren’t written in hate.
But its ok. Wow, a whole week without Facebook.
Here is what is against their standards.
Now, I’m not sure exactly what is hate about this post. But I’m sure it offended someone. Oddly enough I recently reported a comment aimed at me that had one f word aimed at me, two in general and one at the police along with they should be murdered. The murder and f words are against the supposed standards I read. But the report came back nothing wrong.
Conclusion? We are in the midst of persecution and it will become much worse. The loss of free speech is huge in our country. Social media is becoming a fit in the click or get out closed group.
What do we do? Hold onto Him. He is the true One in control. And when the world shows us hate we need to count it a blessing.
Me? I may not go back. I have lots of friends I love chatting with. I love sending out a happy birthday me n’ God love ya to each of them each day to remind them I am thinking about them and He loves them. I have a page where some of you get this message.
Dawn will be posting them in the mornings on the page but it may not be there early. So to the Facebook readers I suggest signing up for the email. It comes out daily and you can be sure to continue to get it.
If you are my friend there and your birthday comes this week,
Happy Birthday!!!!! me n’ God love ya
And to all of you as we head into times where the world is going crazy and hate seems the emotion of choice,
me n’ God love ya
He has this.
