If you haven't heard about what's happening in Australia, I'd encourage you to read about the new legislation they just passed.

If I'd had to pick a country I thought most similarly matched American ideals and culture --they were it. It has me worried that such a place can have made such a detrimental transition without more commentary.

I'm praying for my Australian friends whose hope is diminished. Whose lights are waning. I'm praying for us. Praying the little flickers I see from the hearts of people continue to outshine the shadow and curtains that seem to be trying to keep them out of sight.

The world needs more hope. More love. More freedom, more sovereignty.

Light candles. Look for them. They aren't as few as they may seem, and their potential is without bounds--they can burn the bushel that tries to keep them contained.
