IN SUCH TIMES...ALL YOU CAN DO IS PRAY! AND YOU MUST REMEMBER, ALTHOUGH IT DOESN'T SEEM LIKE IT, GOD IS STILL IN CHARGE. WHAT HE ALLOWS, HE ALLOWS FOR PURPOSES THAT WE CAN HARDLY UNDERSTAND. STAY ROOTED AND GROUNDED IN THE WORD AND BY YOUR SHARING I SEE YOU ALREADY KNOW...THE ROAD LEADING TO DESTRUCTION IS BROAD AND WIDE, MANY GO THERE(FOLLOWING THE CROWD). BUT THE ROAD LEADING TO SALVATION IS NARROW, ONLY A FEW GO THERE. THANKS FOR SHARING. LOVE, BLESSINGS AND FAITH...HIS+INSPIRATIONS

Europe, and Britain, was the stronghold of christian faith and of power for many centuries. Now most are letting go of God, the power starts abandoning them.

I am with you. England is but a small island in the city of the world. Juggernauts like China, India, and even the United States, mark their peril. I have often wondered what value the Royal Family is except as ambassadors of goodwill and a drain on the British treasury. The way of the world is to intermingle with travel and living in an exotic place if one wishes or a place where one can possibly make more money. And globalization of resources and economy continues unabated, regardless what foolish old conservatives in legislators around the world want to do to isolate rather than open up the world of possibilities.

Once England forced Scotland, Wales and Ireland to be called, the United Kingdom. Perhaps your suggestion at the end of your poem would be that England and those other country identities, would become merely a part of, United Europe.

I can't explain what's happening around the world. Britain as well as The U.S. and other countries seem to have lost any form of a moral compass. I fear, that for the world to survive, nationalism has to die. What the world needs now is love. Now more than ever. (and I grew up in the turbulent 60's)
