homogenous: adj. Of the same kind; alike, similar. Having the same composition throughout; of uniform make
We, the citizens of the United
States of America, are living out a paradox. My nation can no longer tout unity.
Division reigns. Yet a push to eliminate voices that counter
a prescribed and predetermined thought pattern has come to the forefront.
(Isn’t that called censorship?) In other words, those in power want our
nation’s citizens to become homogenized. One can earn the label of phobic,
racist, terrorist, or the next popular catch phrase that will become a
trend-setter by simply dissenting, disagreeing, or expressing an opinion
contrary to the accepted narrative.
Conforming, becoming homogenous, contradicts the fact that God created us as individuals. He gave each of us the right to be our own person—which includes having personal thoughts, opinions, and perspectives. No one has the license to discount them because they either don’t like them or disagree. Neither does any other human have the authority to label, silence, or require I become part of the mix and become “homogenized.”
I am the daughter of a farmer who raised milk cows. I know that raw milk separates, and the cream rises to the top. Homogenized milk is milk that undergoes high pressure, dispersing the fat so no identifiable separation remains.
Those of us who refuse to conform are under an enormous amount of pressure. I say, “Leave that process for milk. I am my own person.”
Be true to yourself—before God—and watch the cream rise. That’s where the quality is, the high-dollar stuff. Ask any dairyman who gets paid by the amount of butterfat in the milk his cows produce.
Separation reveals the superior nature of not only milk but people as well. Homogenization obliterates it.
Step out from the world. You belong to God.
Come out from among them, and be separate, says the Lord.
…. . . I
will be a Father to you, and you shall be my sons and daughters,
says the Lord Almighty.
2 Corinthians 6:17, 18 nkjv
