Tragedy


For almost the whole so far I have felt the spirit urging me and calling me to pray for tragedy to strike my nation and generation to bring about radical change. It is my belief that tragedy is the best way to bring about change in someone for the good and for god’s purposes. Through lots of prayer and studying, I know for a fact that my generation is going to go through a countless amount of loss and tribulation more than man has ever seen before.  I feel like at times god calls on me to pray for the tragedies and disasters coming to ebb and curve them into something god can use for his glory.

My favorite quote is from an American playwright and author named John Masefeild, it reads, “Commonplace people dislike tragedy because they dare not suffer and cannot exult.” I believe that my generation is not a commonplace generation that we are a unique generation set up to endure and bring back retribution for America.
When I usually see tragic events coming in the spirit it’s a dark image with an ominous force sweeping over the silhouette of a person or nation. I hardly ever see a person, it is usually a nation.
