You see, this is the horrible thing with evil. It isn't all evil, it's what Jesus called, wolves in sheeps clothing.

Wolves are animals, about the same size as sheep. Dressed up in fluffy wool, from a distance, they may look passive, fluffy and cuddly, but really they are vicious violent predators that eat meat and not grass. They are not to be messed with.

The current events around the world. The sanctioned kidnappings and deportations. The forced labor and slavery. The bombings and political manipulations, and the list goes on and on and on.

We wake up every morning wondering, what next? 

The last couple of weeks, the calculated starvation of an entire nation of 2 million people has overwhelmed me. There have been moments where I have lost my own appetite. I heard that at one moment a kilo of flour was being sold for 85 dollars, and I barely pay 85 cents for my own kilo. As I knead my dough for pizza or hamburger buns, I have cried over this.

And this week, my TikTok feed is full of Americans shocked that the tariffs are working and suddenly are paying 30 to 50% more for the food that they are used to buying. Goodness, between tariffs and running the men and women out of the country that pick the fruit and vegetables, did they not think this would have a knock on effect?

Worse, I have begun to hear that nursing homes are dumping medicaid patients out on the streets. The Big, Beautiful bill that's supposed to give back, is taking away.

Back when I was in Uganda as a young and dumb journalist for an NGO, I saw IDP camps with USAID oil cans battered into makeshift doors for their huts. I knew, that the US, was handing out food so that others could live.

In the 80s, in extreme hunger and starvation, my father in law called the US embassy and alerted them to the horrible conditions. USAID sent the food, World Vision had the men and trucks to distribute it, my father in law, Bill Leonhard helped the village leaders to coordinate to target the most needy families. Before this, the families were walking into the bush, cooking a last meal of poisonous tubers, to die before starvation got them. A whole generation of Ghanaians in the Volta Region, live because of Bill Leonhard, and USAID, and World Vision.

Reform to prevent corruption is always necessary. Always. But complete obliteration of feeding the poor to make a country richer, is against God's rules and the natural order.

The wolves in sheeps clothing keep screaming at the world that this will make a country great again.

But what makes a country or people great?

Those who take care of the lowest of the low, the worst of the worst, the poorest of the poor. The liberators of poverty and hunger.

But, stopping all of that will have and have already have had great consequences.  And, maybe it will take these consequences to wake us all up to what is really happening.
