"Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be terrified; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go."
Joshua 1:9
Every time I read this verse, I feel an intense surge of power and confidence in my Lord and the work he has put before me. Which leads me to the title of the blog and a question. Where have all of the men gone?
You may be asking, "What in the world is this knucklehead talking about? There are men every where." I would answer back, there are males every where, but men are getting harder to find. Joshua is someone I would call a "true" man and why I picked a verse from his chapter. He is God's example of strength, courage, honor, passion, character, discipline, obedience and confidence and in my opinion, the gold standard on how to be a real man.
In today's society, men are loosing ground. Here is why I say this:
We have a nascissist in the White House who has absolutely no belief system, but says he does and goes out of his way to rebuke Christians. Mr President actions speak way louder than words that have been written for you by a professional speech writer.
We have a congress out of control displaying very little sound judgement or morals.
We have an educational system that promotes a progressive socialist agenda. Where is it better to be a victim than it is to be a victor.
We have a little league sports system that is based on participation and trophies, instead of results.
We have the top 10 shows in America belittling men on a weekly basis.
AND we have way too many single mothers having to the work of two people with very little support and way too little love.
yes I only provided a very short list, but you get the idea.
So I ask again, "where have all of the men gone?"
Men it is time to step up and take back our country, our families, our schools and our faith. Please join me today in this fight, because the Lord has already provided the victory.
