I been praying to God for the right thing to do and say for such a time like this in our world. “Jesus can you hear me? We really do need you now” as the tears rolled down my face. I live so far away from what happened to George Floyd in Minneapolis, but it’s hurting like if it’s me and I am right there going through what everyone living there is feeling and going through in my spirit. I can’t even express the hurt and disappointment in humanity when I see racism or any prejudice.

I am devastated to watch the news, with another death of an African-American man, brutally and boldly killed in the presence of a camera, “George Floyd,” let me say his name out loud. “Lord have mercy on us all!” It is sad to see the looting and fires burning. Under no circumstances should that be accepted as okay. But still with no understanding some police officers brutality subduing the people. “Haven’t they learnt anything yet?” Stand back with understanding and let the people vent, by the protesting, peacefully. Why the rubber bullets, teargas and beatings again. The police looked like they came with the intent for a riot not a protest. And all I see is hurting, frustrated and scared people. Hurting over the injustice, frustrated over the fact nothing seems to ever be changing with police and African-Americans , and scared is the ones doing the hurting, like the police and the those with the mindset of the police concerning racism.

It’s like covid-19 is unlocking the mentality of all humanity to take a good look at ourselves. Who are we alone and also as a whole with others on this planet, we call our earth. What is it going to take for us to realize we are all in this together, to live on this planet, and it doesn’t matter ethnicity, religion, social status or whatever. One thing we are sure of is being human we all die. No one, no matter what, lives forever and is superior to one another in any ways. I guess it would take aliens coming to earth from another planet to make us realize this?

Two wrongs doesn’t make anything right. The people looting, setting things on fire and vandalizing properties are wrong, just proving the police justified in treating. them the way they do. They are just as wrong as the police officer who stood by allowing the police officer who had his knee on the neck of George Floyd and did nothing. The officers who are still beating, shooting rubber bullets, teargas and violence against the hurting people instead of allowing them to protest peaceful is ever so wrong. All they did was take this world wide from Minneapolis with the proof of their actions on camera. It looks so bad on the police, even if they were trying to up hold the law. Their behavior looked wicked and vengeful.

“Lord hear my prayer for a hurting world today. We are living in uncertain times and everyone is on edge, especially realizing life as we know it, will never be the same concerning Covid-19 and the isolation is playing a major role with our mentality. Please help us to stay focused on you and all righteous so we can carry on till this passes. We do need the comforter (Holy Spirit) to fall fresh on us at this trying times.” Amen!
