Why can’t all this be happening in say 100 years, why does this have to be happening now, typical bad luck.
As a 25 year old, with a 3 year old and a small baby, it makes me think, what was the bloody point.
Did we ask for this insanity gripping the world? No.
Maybe not. We’ll see how it plays out.
BUT, if we’re around for the last half of the Tribulation, the Great Tribulation, then yes, it will be very, very bad times indeed. Nazi Germany will seem almost mild by comparison.
And that is very, very scary. Not as scary as taking the Mark of the Beast, of course. Nor as permanent.
[Did we ask for this insanity gripping the world? No.]
Actually, yes we did. We let Satan loose on planet Earth. As the god of this world and the prince of this world, his disciples are wreaking his destruction wherever they can.
Ouch.
It’s not bad luck.
God’s timing is never bad luck.
And it’s typical entitlement mentality that causes us to think that we’re owed a pain free trouble free life. It’s so typical of this country. We’re pretty spoiled in this country and don’t know how to deal with life and 99.99999% of the world has had to for most of its history.
And you know what? I could have said the same thing when my kids were little as well, not so long ago. So, it’s no different now.
And now that they’re older, it doesn’t make it any easier knowing what they are potentially facing as young adults.
Motherhood never changes.
I’m so sad for those, like you, who are young and should be able to look forward to a brighter earthly future than seems to be evident at this time in history. However, if you ground yourself and your family in the Scriptures and study them, you’ll realize that all the blessings we enjoy on this earth are paltry in comparison to what The Almighty has in store for those who love Him. Scripture tells us that all these horrid things have to happen so that His purpose can be realized.
In fact, Jesus himself told us that, when we see these things begin to happen, we shouldn’t be troubled by them at all. Bless you and your children. I know(I can hardly do it myself) that it’s hard to see what’s happening and not feel like you should just give up looking forward to any kind of future for you and your children. But if we love Our Creator and remain faithful through all this as He has told us to do, then we have a brighter future than any of us could imagine and it’s going to last forever.
