King of the Hill

This blog has nothing to do with the cartoon series about the Hill family in Texas. It has to do with the game we played as kids during recess and when you had a bunch of neighborhood kids together and needed to use up a lot of energy. If you never played the game, the object was for those playing to get to the top of whatever the hill was and to stay there by knocking off everyone who tries to take that spot. Sometimes the one who was the king stayed there for a little and sometimes they got knocked off right away because they weren't strong enough. I played that numerous times as a kid. Most of the time was spent trying to get to the top and didn't succeed becoming the king. Any kid who was bigger and stronger then his opponents usually ruled the hill with little effort. The game was just that. A game! It didn't matter if you were the king or a wanna be king. You played to have fun.

Today we are playing "king of the hill" with our lives and society. Slowly we are trying to remove God from every vestige of public life from schools to government. We are as Christians not allowed to influence the government and it's policies. They cry out about separation of church and state as though it is constitutional when in fact it is not. What the founding forefathers were saying is the government has no right to tell the church what it can or cannot do. There are so many groups today who are trying to pull God down. They don't want His rules or His will imposed on them. They have no clue that one day every knee will bow and every tongue confess that Jesus is Lord. God is the King of the hill and will never be knocked off! I believe that it is time to take back our nation and allow God His rightful place in our lives and society.
