A Voice In The Wind Analysis

This world, the earth, seems crazy at times to me. We hear about Christians being persecuted, tortured and/or killed for their faith in God. Most of these occurrences happen in other countries but the United States is not free from persecution of Christians. Christians in the United States are even bullied by people like atheist Richard Dawkins who believes that Christians should be mocked and belittled for believing in God. This scares me sometimes because I am a Christian and I believe people should treat each other with kindness. I definitely don’t want people to mock and belittle me or other Christians.

At these times he has carried me through with courage to face the next
