I Weep For My City, People Are Dying, It’s Not About A Car Company Moving Here Or Tourism, It’s About God And His Ways

As I blog this morning here at FGGAM and I have my coffee and Sharon gets ready for another day in nursing and Buffy and Reno surround me with love and thinking of my Lord and what matters to Him this daydewey lars………I go out to the driveway and grab the Albuquerque Journal with these headlines: APD KILLS ARMED MAN, another death, the sanctity of life? Where is it in Albuquerque? A City with abortion factories, we cannot expect our City to be blessed as long as we abort God’s children……….I am weeping for my city. The news is just full of stories of the shootings like……..People will stop moving to Albuquerque, so many are concerned rightly or wrongly at this time whether or not that car company, Tesla, will move here now , tourism will be hurt, Job loss is mounting in Albuquerque as companies lay off personnel, people moving out of the city in record numbers, all sorts of angles on this story of Police shootings. The City s a mixed bag of emotions. I see on Facebook a group has started ‘Citizens against APD’, that makes me sad, we are not against APD, we are against the actions of some, I don’t know how many officers. We cannot be against APD, they are our enforcers of law and I believe the majority are good people like you and me. Now I see that hackers have posted a cyberthreat against APD, it is very tense in the City. Protests continue against APD. I pray for peace. What is needed is strong leadership that has not been exhibited as of yet from any Albuquerque City Official to bring calm to the city. The Mayor has been too quiet. We elected him to bring leadership to the City and he is a good man, and Mayor Berry needs to get up on the saddle and bring order to the City. I would have a ‘come to Jesus ‘ meeting with the Police force, a call to ‘pause’ a ‘time out’ , slow down. The City cannot afford an escalation of anger at this time. You may want to consider bringing in County Sheriff Dan Houston, who is a good man,  and his Department to run things for awhile, with the help of State Police and some APD officers,  because the Public’s confidence in APD is shaken. We do not need anymore APD shootings,  in many eye’s APD is guilty even if the evidence shows that they are innocent. Get Sheriff Houston’s help, State Police and the Governors help. My ideas may be radical to some, but radical action is needed at this time, more of the same equals disaster.

ps…..Abortion protests continue in the City also. This is more than Police shootings, it’s about God. What does God want from each of us? God wants us to keep our eye’s on Him and His ways, not whether a car company will move here, not whether what has happened is going to hurt tourism, value life as God does. Honor God in everything you do. People are dying. It’s all about God and His ways, not our ways.
