You nicely composed a list of woes in our troubled world. We have put Christianity on trial. Those who believe, as stated in your composition, must remain faithful and hope He will answer your letter to all of us very soon.

Thanks much.
Comment from Sally Law
A precious and real prayer to God. I have much of the same worries and then I remember from where I came. Without Christ and His redemption, a person is lost. The media will always focus on the lost world. It is mostly owned by the evil one.
Jesus said before He returns there will be signs. One of the many is the rise in wickedness and apostates. Hang on to your faith, be diligent in prayer as His coming nears.
Meantime, my best in the contest and rich blessings of grace and peace to you and yours,

Comment from Jannypan (Jan)
JLR,
Your contest entry is well written. The letter form, as required,
highlights everything that needs to be fixed immediately. Will
it? Only God knows. I like the organization and attention to
detail. Yes, too many depend on the gov't when those that don't
need help, too.
Thanks for sharing and best wishes, Jan

Jan, thank you for this special validation, we know that God has a plan and I work so very hard at looking at this with loving neutrality toward this world around me.
Comment from K.L. Rockquemore
I enjoyed this letter you have so beautifully written.
I think is was clever and creative to address the seven deadly sins the way that did. I am not a Christian but I can appreciate your faith and the love you have for it. Thanks for sharing and keep writing.

Comment from Wayne Fowler
Very nicely said. Good work.
I can understand your frustration.
What works for me is to do the good that I know to do - failure is sin. Think on things that are good and lovely. Be a peacemaker. Do for others what you would want them to do for you. Read the beatitudes. Don't listen to what brings you down.
(Did you know that the unemployment rate is lower than just about ever?)
Bless you.

I like how you've linked your letter to the seven deadly sins and adapted current affairs to tie into each of them. That's an interesting approach to this prompt that I haven't seen elsewhere. You write with strength and conviction, and that makes for a good article.

Comment from GARY MACLEAN
Perfectly written, very refreshing. Not a single error of any kind, spelling, grammar, punctuation, spacing, nothing! Such an easy read with such an intense and sincere message.
Were that God could respond to you in kind, but I know he has heard you as he hears so many others with similar cries. He will respond, one day, He will respond.
Excellent job, easily deserving of the six-star rating.

This is a good letter. I think I would add the businesses that used COVID as an excuse to get rid of some employees as well. Good luck in the contest and thank you for sharing. Have a great weekend.

Comment from Wendy G
Very creative and honest letter to God outlining your distress about each of the elements in turn. Unfortunately it all comes back to it being a broken world taking the consequences for refusing to submit to God's authority. His personal "freedom" is more important. Best wishes for your entry.

Wendy, you certainly nailed the plight of mankind very concisely. Thanks for the validation.
Comment from tfawcus
Your letter shows in great detail the many man-made woes afflicting the world at the moment. It does sometimes seem that God doesn't care about what is going on. He has, however, given us the weapons to fight such evils. The chief one, of course, is love. We often talk about our faith in Him. However, it is easy to forget that He has faith in us.
