We are eternally grateful to those who paid the cost
so  that our values & freedoms would never be lost.
“Don’t let our sacrifices be in vain.”

What a grand canyon lies between angry points of view,
as we teach our children to act like we do. 

 

My toon isn’t at all definitive, just a chuckle & a prayer call. Only God could untangle this mess! In researching for the toon, I talked to all sides.  And got an earful and a heartful!  Compassion for the refugee? The survival of an over-generous democracy? Only in a free, bountiful, big-hearted, weak-willed nation could such a dilemma ever develop!  ‘Ay, Caramba! How we need to pray!…
1. For Solomon-like wisdom in our leaders- to pass & enforce laws that are fair to illegals & legals! 
2. For secure borders, safety for border patrols, border towns & homesteads!
3. For more “lucky” defeats of terror plots & drug traffic (195 cartels operating in US cities!?)
4. For health & supplies & helpers in the American colonias (we thought it could never happen here!)
5. For the way of Earned Entry- to earn a green card, then become a citizen- might be clear, fair & responsible.     
6. That the cry for Total Amnesty- homes, food, medical & jobs, without accountability or taxes, would be addressed!
7. That the right & honor of being an American citizen would be made attractive by media, govt., arts & entertainment!
8. For Awakenings! For the Real Gospel of Jesus to spread in Mexico…. in Arab nations… in America… in Arizona!  
9. For churches to become lighthouses & sanctuaries, with practical & spiritual help for new or embryonic citizens!
10.For America to survive as a beacon & bastion for the world’s refugees yearning to breathe free!
