A WAKE-UP CALL!
Joe K writes: "The other day as I walked around my house thinking about our country's situation spiritually, physically and emotionally wound up tighter than I've ever known before, I am so burdened within my self. As a Vietnam vet I have been in wars and countries that exist in such sorrowful conditions, that most Americans cannot ever imagine. As I struggled within my thoughts, I saw a picture in my mind(?) of cars on sitting on top of a high roller coaster, just waiting to go over the first (and highest) hill. I felt that "WE" are on that roller coaster! And "WE" are about to experience things that this country has never experienced before. My hope is that ALL OF US will "STOP" at this time, get quiet before The Lord Jesus (Yeshua), draw near to Him AS CLOSE AS YOU CAN, and prepare! Because, I believe, IT"S ABOUT TO START!

I felt that way a few nights ago. I'm an OIF/OEF/GWOT veteran, and thinking about current events put me in a dark, depressed mindset. I felt in my soul that bad, bad times are ahead.

what about the 'JOY'?

 

[joekocon]

I love "Joy", peace, love, Heaven, Jesus, fellowship and witnessing to try to bring everyone who will listen to Heaven!
BUT, the bible has explained in great detail that the "end of this age" will come about with great shakings for all of mankind, to prepare and allow us to finish our tasks on the earth.
The peace / joy we need is not the peace / joy that this world offers but what comes to us from Our Father, when we accomplish our given tasks and when we finally hear " Well done! Good and faithful servant. Enter into My peace!
Thank you for your response! I'm praying you are ready!

"These are the times that try men's souls. The summer soldier and the sunshine patriot will, in this crisis, shrink from the service of their country; but he that stands it now, deserves the love and thanks of man and woman." --- Thomas Paine 1776

"I implore as the best blessing which Heaven can bestow upon me upon earth, that if the direful and sad event of the dissolution of this Union is to happen, I shall not survive to behold the sad and heart-rending spectacle." Henry Clay 1850 (Pre Civil War)

"The lamps are going out all over Europe; we shall not see them lit again in our lifetime." --- Sir Edward Grey British Foreign Secretary August 1914 (Pre World War I)

"I believe that the policy of appeasement will lead to disaster. We are in the presence of a disaster of the first magnitude... we have sustained a defeat without a war, the consequences of which will travel far with us along our road... This is only the first sip, the first foretaste of a bitter cup which will be proffered to us year by year unless by a supreme recovery of moral health and martial vigor, we arise again and take our stand for freedom as in the olden time." --- Winston Churchill October 1938 (Pre World War II)

"The world is at war. A piecemeal third world war, one fought in bits and pieces, but which has the appearance of something organized. Hunger, migration, ecological damage, and the arms trade are killing humanity. We are moving toward self-destruction." Pope Francis 2022

Throughout history, America has stood as a beacon of freedom, courage, and resilience and we have prevailed. We endure because of our unwavering pursuit of what is just and moral, driven by an unshakable commitment to the values that define us.

"We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America."

I'll just leave this here.....
