Sometimes the world just seems upside down

| November 1, 2013 1:09 PM

Letter to the Editor,

What kind of world are we living in?

 It’s almost like everything is upside down and backward. The newspaper headlines include wars and more wars, genocide, economic collapse, drought, famines, floods, cancer epidemics, viruses, pandemics, toxic environments, increasing frequency of earthquakes, nuclear threats and power grabs.

Elderly tourists are held at gunpoint at Yellowstone Park. Forest rangers are ordered to “Make life as difficult as possible” for citizens. (Illegals, however, no problem).

Vets and relatives are barricaded from the U.S. War Memorial.

Unaffordable healthcare — doubled and tripled premiums and deductibles. And, many are losing their healthcare as a result.

Are we about to go over the cliff or have we already gone over? It’s almost like we are leaping toward self-destruction.

In a world gone berserk, is there any hope for us?  

Let us ask one of the most respected men of the past century — a spiritual councilor to many modern presidents — Billy Graham. Mr. Graham will celebrate his 95th birthday on Nov. 7 with a message especially for America at this critical time.

The My Hope America message entitled “The Cross” will be airing all over the U.S. and Canada from Nov. 7-10.

 “The Cross” will contain life-changing testimonies and one urgent message from Mr. Graham filmed at his North Carolina mountain home earlier this year.
