For My Sunday Song #35, I chose “Gravity” by Shawn McDonald. The song is off his debut album, Simply Nothing, which came out back in 2004. The song is about how we let our problems and the weight of the world pull us from our faith in God.
With all the craziness going on in the U.S. right now, I am sure we are all guilty of letting our faith slip. I see it everyday on the internet and TV. Since the Presidential election, people have turned on each other. Dialogue doesn’t exist anymore. Each side feels if you don’t believe what I believe you are a moron or a racist or that you hate women just because they did or didn’t vote for Trump. It is getting ridiculous. I hate going on Facebook for this very reason. It is so sad.
The rudeness everyone is showing to each other is unreal. My niece’s husband was in Home Depot the other day and a woman came up to him and said he was going to hell for his decisions to get Tattoos. He was there minding his own business and she just came up and voiced her unsolicited opinion. I can’t believe the nerve of this woman. It makes me angry (and you wouldn’t like me when I am angry). BTW…his tattoos are awesome and he is a loving husband, father and a hard working man. Nothing but respect for him.
The world seems to be letting the “Gravity” of life pull them away from their faith and from God. I am sure that lady thought she was being a good Christian, but it was the most unchristian like behavior.
