Remembering, NOT OUR HOME!

 You'll be getting hit from all sides.  You are already, and have been for a while.

What to do. . . .

What to do?

Look . . . note . . . as is quite obvious now, even to some of the "normies" . . . is that we ("the people") are under attack.  There's that. . . .  

But, well, and guess what?  YOU!--if you are a Believer and Follower and one who has faith in God--have been targeted and are/have-been under attack . . . since inception/conception.

At the same time (even before!) however, YOU were chosen for life, life eternal!

Yes, this is like being in a leaky life-boat, amidst impossibly roaring and high waves overwhelming--can barely breathe, can't hardly see, think . . . let alone, this is no time to be worrying about water and food.

You are just trying to hold fast, hold on, hang tight as the tumult threshes and thrashes and nearly drowns you within the mayhem.

I do believe, because experiencing, some interesting interference in the night, "dream-world".

In the midst of that--no matter what "they" do . . . I find myself going straight to imploring, praying, humbling, deliberate striving to recall God, The Lord and what He did and does mercifully for us.  Always remembering that this is not our home!  We've been blessed with the holy script.  The horror and suffering and perversions, subterfuge--pure evil that we are at trial with, is a foretaste of the dreadful unending hell and punishment of sin.  It is obviously very real.  It is also obvious Who is most hated, targeted, attacked by this evil in this world.  It is a blessing that it has all become so apparent!  The PROMISES of unending glory, peace, rest for the faithful, with God, is our undying hope!  And so, as we witness and experience the attacks from all sides, we do well to ever strive to meet and know and experience the transcendent and powerful sustaining holy presence of God, reveling in His Holy Spirit and unfathomable gift, sacrifice of His Son!  Don't let the chaos and mayhem and constant threats and distractions thwart you from this most important of tasks in the life! 

"I consider that the sufferings of this present time are as nothing compared with the glory to be revealed for us." Romans 8:18

Beloved let me know that all of this evil, even the worst mankind can do to each other, and the worst mankind can do to the other beings that live here, is easily overcome by the Love of God.

Easily.

As in the devil doing his worst never even puts the outcome in doubt for one second.

Easily overcome.

And we are here experiencing it for the experience of it, and to witness what God does. As you have mentioned before, Brother, nothing is out of God's control. Everything that happens is His will: part of the story He is telling here.

Ultimately, that evil will be nothing but a memory as dim as ours from our mothers' wombs.
