What were the top stories of this pass year.
Well, 2002 is just about over with but before we say hit the roadway jack to this year and welcome a New Year I think it is important to look back.

Now we should not live in the pass but we should look at it to see what we positive need change in the New Year and what we should keep doing as families, a nation, all the people, and individuals.

What was the top news stories of this pass year?

Some spiritual leaders in the Catholic Church abused kids.

I think it is sad whenever a child is abused no matter who does it but it is an added outrage when it is done by referred to as spiritual leaders.

I am also concern because as a person who works with youth I am seeing it impact on all youth workers including ones who have done nothing wrong.

Today you cannot not do what you once did but please know folks there are many nice youth workers who love young everybody and their God.

The summer of 2002 I think will be recalled as the year that kids were kidnapped, abused, and killed even from their own yards. The day that parents could let their kids play in front of there houses and not have to watch them are gone.

In 2002 we also saw kids doing adult crimes including killing others. We thought we could teach young everybody that God was dead and that it does not matter how you live without paying price. The Bible tells us we weep we we sow.

This pass year we viewed the war in the middle east keep going on and all the people being killed because of their faith or doing suicide bombings because that is what their God taught.

In 2002 we still recalled what happen a year ago on September 11, 2001, and the 911 war against terror went on.

I think we will be talking about that for awhile and perhaps will see the USA go to war with Iraq only God knows what will happen but we absolutely need to pray.

Only God knows what is ahead for the New Year but if we seek Him and keep our eyes on Him we will be able to handle anything that happens no matter if it feels like a blessing or a curse. We can do all things through Him.
