'Urban Decay' brawling in airports, notice something?

Like it was in the days of Noah....
Genesis 6
9 This is the genealogy of Noah. Noah was a just man, perfect in his generations. Noah walked with God. 10 And Noah begot three sons: Shem, Ham, and Japheth.

11 The earth also was corrupt before God, and the earth was filled with violence. 12 So God looked upon the earth, and indeed it was corrupt; for all flesh had corrupted their way on the earth.

13 And God said to Noah, “The end of all flesh has come before Me, for the earth is filled with violence through them; and behold, I will destroy them with the earth.

Having served in the TN ANG for almost 20 years, I know for a fact that the areas surrounding airports can be, shall we say, "Not the absolute best ones for raising children," but OTOH, what part of a city is there that's 110+% crime-free 24/7/365-66? As one correctly stated, "The problem with people is.......people!" As long as there's people around you, sooner or later "challenges" will arise. How we deal with these "challenges" will pretty much indicate what sort of person we are. Of course, God's Word & the Holy Spirit should be our guide, but lotsa times I get in the way of myself & want to grab my toys and run away. If your goal is to become a hermit, then you're headed in the right direction. OTOH, if your goal is to be a witness for Jesus as He told us in Acts 1, being isolated from this world's system won't do the trick. We'll decide for ourselves which goal we'll attain. As for me, my goal is to do what He wants me to. The details will probably vary, but I'd prefer to be on the path at whose path ends in Glory with my Savior. The alternative path is a dead end. Right??!!?? :Barefoot:Barefoot:rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:
