A Voice

In Jesus time there was a man named John
the Baptist. He lived in the wilderness of
Israel. He spoke words of encouragement.
He asked people to repent and be baptized.
He spoke about a man the messiah who was
coming after him. He would baptize people
with the Holy Spirit.

Today we need men and women doing the 

same encouraging others to change their 

ways. I hope I am one of those men right

here.

This year life has gotten so crazy. Here in

the USA we first had the virus like most of

the world then protesting over the death of

George Floyd by a white police officer and

now we are having fires in my state of 

Washington, Oregon and California. It all

started in California. Many acres, homes 

and lives have been lost.

The world is going crazy now with the 

virus, hate crimes, protesting, and wild

fires. We don't have fires near where I 

live but we have smoke. The governor

of Washington asked people to stay at

home.

I got out for a little while by going to my

favorite coffee shop. I drove around the 

area for a few minutes as well I saw several

people walking but not nearly the amount

happening on a Saturday. 

I went to the spit of the harbor look toward

Tacoma and Vashon Island. The fog and 

smoke was so thick I could not see either

place. The fog and smoke was settle right 

on the water. 

My encouragement is we be a voice to those

around us especially those who are depressed

and in fear. Come along side people. 

May God bless you this day. May his face

shine upon you. Amen!
