For such a time as this, my brothers and sisters in Christ, we have been called to be the Lord’s witnesses in a day of sheer darkness. We are to be a lighthouse in a violent storm of moral decay holding fast to the word of truth for all the world to see. Yes, it is a time of madness; A time when evil is called good and good is called evil. It is a time when God’s fundamental truths have been tossed to the wind, conscience has been raped of its God given conviction, and has been replaced with the world’s standards. During these days it seems as if the dominant thread that is woven in the fabric of culture has become predominantly evil. Men and women alike have become lovers of self, lovers of money, unholy, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, becoming wise in their own estimations while denying the very truth that is written upon their own hearts. Saints of God, though our culture grows closer to adopting all of the sexual deviations that ancient Rome adopted before its fall, we must first repent of our own sins and come before the Lord in holy prayer. This must be an inward movement of the heart, driven by the deepest affections of our soul.
