To: Knitting A Conundrum

Well, I don't put much faith modern day seers, but I do know the Bible says it's gonna get worse before it gets better and we need to put on the WHOLE armor of God.

One thing I would caution my fellow Christians here to remember: if you give into hatred or anger you're playing into satan's hands. God is on the throne, He will avenge, either now or when he sees fit, and we must keep our eyes on HIM. Keep remembering that when Peter took his eyes off Christ when he was walking on the water, Peter sank. It was only when he kept his eyes on Jesus that he was able to walk on water and was safe.

Excellent advice. I don't run after visionaries, myself, because everything we need to know we have been already told, although it can be a comfort.

No matter how angry we are, we need to give it to God.
No matter how grieved we are, we need to give it to God.
No matter how disappointed, we need to give it to God.

The small still voice that I like to think is the Spirit whispering into my heart has been telling me "Watch and see."

What I have seen is how the evil has snuck into our country.

What I have seen is how the culture of death has played on people's desire to be kind and compassionate.

What I have seen is how people with good intentions can pass laws with bad results.

I have seen how the dark is trying to use this to discredit those of us who believe.

I have seen that people of good will who believe are still willing to stand for truth.

This is not an abstract issue any more. It is an issue that has a face and calls out for telling it like it is.

Lord, open our hearts to your word,
open our eyes to see as you see,
heal our hearts, that we may love as you love,
use our hands that we may use them for your glory,
our feet, that we may walk where your want us,
our tongues to say the healing words you ask us to,
this day and always,
in the name of Jesus,
Amen.
