Wrestling With God

About this book

WRESTLING WITH GOD highlights the author's view of the pandemic years and the political and cultural upheaval that reared its ugly head simultaneously under the disastrous Biden administration. The author recounts historical events chronologically through relatable stories and poetry to remind the reader what it was like to wake up and discover that the world they had grown up in was gone. The rug was unceremoniously pulled out from beneath America, and its citizens were left standing on a foundation of shifting sand, looking upon an unfamiliar landscape and wondering what had happened and what to do next. It was a time of fear, disbelief, chaos, and confusion. While desperate for answers, it became apparent all too soon that our leaders had forsaken us and that we were alone to navigate the new world order being ushered in on our own. Many conservative Christians wondered where God was and why he didn't do something to stop the insanity. Our safety, livelihood, family values, and sovereignty as a nation were being threatened, and we were in danger of losing the freedoms our forefathers fought and died for. We were left wrestling with unwanted feelings of fear, anger, anguish, hate, contempt, and distrust of our government, with each threatening to become strongholds in our hearts and minds, which were in direct conflict with the teachings of our faith. We prayed to God to save us and each day waited for an answer that didn't come. For some, his silence was an indication that the end times were upon us. While our innocence was painfully lost 4 years ago, our eyes are wide open now. It is only by remembering the mistakes of the past that we can ever hope to prevent such needless pain and suffering from reoccurring in the future.
