We start our fast (Lent) on February 13. At my present rate of weight loss, I’ll be incorporeal by Easter ;-).
I learned about the Azusa Revival when I became involved in the Charismatic Renewal in Tulsa, 2000 or so. (Between Elen and Sally.) There are huge movements of the Spirit happening in many places, but we learn so little about them from the general media ... just as we won’t hear anything about the national March for Life, in spite of hundreds of thousands’ turning out in cruddy weather. “Never happened,” say the national media. “Everyone is pro-abortion, we all know that.”
Evil has crossed a great line when atheists put a billboard up in Times Square calling Santa Claus real and Jesus a myth. God will not allow that to stand for long. First He will be merciful and give one loud, long last call for all who will to come to him.
Then Babylon the Great will descend with her hoards, and there will be wailing and gnashing of teeth. Even that will be designed to turn men's hearts toward God, but many will shake their fists at Him instead. They will be invited to the feast, but they will refuse to go.
Seek the LORD while He may be found.
