What a weekend. What a Monday!
What a beautiful day.
The carnage of the past week seems distant to me, and we become accustomed to this weekly dosage of terror and mayhem, so a bright and beautiful morning is still cause to rejoice.
I'm so glad that Donald Trump picked Pence as a running mate. Now I can vote for him instead of the Donald when I go to the polls in the fall.
You know, our country is suffering. It's bearing the wounds of forgetting the Creator.
Welcome, mayhem. Welcome, bad leaders. Welcome dysfunctional families....
There are those moments when everything becomes crystal clear in your thinking. It all makes total sense. I wish we could capture them, live in them.
But life continues and the people we love flounder. Those moments will continue to muddy the clarity of the underlying truth.
Lord, why is life so hard?
We are just back from my husband's high school reunion in Iowa. I admit that as a spouse I was hardly looking forward to the event. I was blown away by the what happened, though.
I found a soul-mate there. We chatted for two precious hours!
Her story is incredible, and I just wanted to listen. It's possible that she will be reading this post, and I want her to know how she blessed me. I'm careful to protect identities, so I'm only going to give the outlines of her story, but it is so inspiring I wanted to share it with you.
We connected when I learned she had adopted a boy from Sierra Leone. I'd read "A Long Way Gone," and I'd watched documentaries about the Lost Boys. (If you haven't read this book, or informed yourself about the political horrors of Africa, you need to.)
What faith and patience, clinging to the Lord, she experienced as she fought political corruption and impossible circumstances to bring her son home.
But that wasn't all the story. Her own testimony of finding the Lord was inspiring. Courageous!
She was rather wild back in her early adulthood. God plucked her out of that lifestyle and set her on solid ground! Her thirst for truth and the Word became overpowering. Soon her husband became a believer, and the two of them started over in life.
Transformation. It's what the Holy Spirit does!
Spiritual eyes are opened, and there is no turning back!
Such inspiration.
Well, we had a wonderful time of fellowship. Delightful.
She became a believer at great personal cost. She left her religion, and many in her family do not understand the transformation she underwent.
I can only praise the Lord for her courage. She has a contrast to remember----dark, then light. Lost, found. It's such a powerful contrast that she is utterly transformed.
I was so young when I believed that I was sealed away from much of the spiritual confusion that reigns in this old world.
I've only known the joy of the LORD.
I've been blessed.
When cancer, rape, need, dysfunction, mental illness assail me-----I've always had that incredible power to get through it that only comes from Christ Jesus.
When the world goes to hell around me, I have that scarlet rope of hope in Christ.
I've read the ending.
My book club friends always laughed at me. I can't stand suspense, so I read the last chapter of the the book after I've read the first chapter. I go back and read the book after I know how it ends. I can read in peace then.
Yes, I'm one of those people.
(There are only six literary plots in every work of fiction, anyway! Hate to burst your bubble, there!)
But in the Bible there is a last chapter. It all becomes wonderful for believers. It all becomes hell for everyone else.
And the specific prophesies are there for us to keep track of the whole mess.
God knows. He controls it. It's all there in His Word.
What comfort. What peace.
The Luciferian minds of this world are already defeated. It doesn't matter what Stalins, Hitlers, Maos, Pol Pots, Korean Dictators, Mullahs, (name your horrible fear!) gain control.
This is Earth. There will be sin here. Hardship, torture, mayhem, death. Don't ever believe that there is hope for this earth. It's going to be over soon.
The elites have their caves, their plans, their seed banks. They hoard the gold and the land. Hopeless strivings. They, too, will perish, for all their genetic manipulation and life-lengthening science.
The ending is already wrapped up, and it's good for those who believe.
SO BELIEVE!
Demonic forces are gaining momentum. Don't think that our political leaders are blind to their dark power.
I write so that you will be aware! Open your spiritual eyes!
The economy is only a propped up sham by a private corporation (the Feds) and we are dealing with illusion.
You really think that those people in control of interest rates have our interests at heart?
Wake up.
I met with an old friend yesterday. He's a "prepper" to the max.
I joked with him. "Why would you even WANT to survive the coming awfulness predicted in the Bible?!"
He has sweet intentions, and I do not fault him for that.
I just see the rate of surviving the next World War without an identification chip or some type of New World Order VERY unlikely. I just can't see another time of temporary war/survival (like WWII) feasible. We've progressed too far with technology and population to hide ourselves from some evil Antichrist.
Since I'm not concerned about surviving the seven years of tribulation I don't care if my body dies.
I'm concerned about eternity.
Eternity is forever. Forever. Your soul lives forever. It will feel pain in hell, or joy in the presence of the LORD.
That is what concerns me. Nothing else.
I want you to know the truth, but I can't force you to come to Christ. The Holy Spirit does that. He will draw you.
If you feel compelled to believe what I am writing this morning, you ARE being drawn.
Believe in the LORD JESUS CHRIST, and you will be saved.
You will fall in love with the Hound of Heaven, and your life will be amazing.
Don't wait. Choose the path of righteousness for His Name's sake.
Repent. Stop fornicating. Stop lying. Stop your idolatry. Become filled with the Holy Spirit. REJECT RELIGION.
Don't look away from your one chance at eternal peace.
Follow Jesus.
Jesus saves.
