Lo, this is our God; we have waited for Him, so that he might save us.
This is the Lord for whom we have waited. Let us be glad and rejoice.
Just as the love of a mother for her son can grow while she is waiting for
his return, and just as lovers can rediscover each other during long per-
iods of absence, so also a intimate relation with God can become more
mature while we wait patiently in expectation for his return. (Henri J. M.
Nouwen, Out of Solitude.
Henri Nouwen invites us to reflect on the tension between our desire for a solitude and the demands of contemporary life. He reminds us that it was in solitude that Jesus found the courage to follow God‘s will. And he shows us that fruitful love and service must spring from a living relationship with God. Beautifully written, elegantly simple, Out of Solitude, as fresh today as it is/was thirty years ago.
“We want to overcome problems and adversities and want to change at all costs. An alternative is to care for ourselves, each other, and our world.”
Hear and I answer. Spend much time in prayer. Prayer is of many kinds, but of whatever kind, prayer is the linking up of the soul and mind and heart to God. So that if it is only a glance of faith, a look or word of Love, or confidence, and no supplication is expressed, it yet follows that supply and all necessary are secured. Because the soul, being linked to God, united to Him, receives in and through Him all things. And the soul, when in human form, needs too the things belonging to its habitation.
Submit yourself to My Control, My Kingship; then the sting is taken out of life’s rebuffs.Welcome each contact as of My planning. Be ready to widen your circle of influence at My wish. Don’t let age, other limitations daunt you. Trust Me. Can I not judge your fitness for a task I give you? Have not I Love for your acquaintances as well as for you? Do not question My decisions. All is planned in Love all My children. Only self-will can hinder the carrying out of the Divinely ConceivedPlan. Work gladly, knowing all needed wisdom shall be provided, also all needed material to doMy Work.
TAKE A BREATH AND DECEND DEEPLY INTO GOD’S LOVE THAT YOU FEEL NOTHING ELSE
THANK MARINE FOR RISKING LIFE SO CITIZENS OF AMERICA DON’T HAVE DEAL WITH THE STUFF DOWN IN TEXAS RIGHT NOW – WHAT WOULD CHESTY PULLER SAY ABOUT THAT? well…
Puller was born in West Point, Virginia, to Matthew and Martha Puller. His father was a grocer who died when Lewis was 10 years old. Puller grew up listening to old veterans’ tales of the Civil War and idolizing Thomas “Stonewall” Jackson. He wanted to enlist in the United States Army to fight in the Border War with Mexico in 1916, but he was too young and could not get parental consent from his mother.

Today’s Prayer
God most mighty, God most merciful,
our stories tell us that you help and save your people.
You are the fortress: may there be no more war.
You are the harvest: may there be no more hunger.
You are the light: may no one die alone or in despair.
God most majestic, God most motherly,

At the time of his death, Major General Smedley Darlington Butler, also known as “The Fighting Quaker”, was the most decorated Marine in US history; he was the only person to be awarded a Marine Corps Brevet Medal and a Medal of Honor for two separate military actions. He had also become an unrelenting voice against the business of war.
Raised by prominent Quaker parents, Smedley Butler defied his pacifist lineage by joining the Marines just before his 17th birthday. He served in Honduras, Nicaragua, Mexico and Haiti (earning his Medals of Honor in Mexico and Haiti). Butler was known for his leadership and commitment to the welfare of the men under his command. He rose quickly through the ranks to become, at age 48, one of the youngest major generals.
Prior to World War II, Butler spoke out against what he saw as admiration for Fascism and for Italy´s leader Benito Mussolini. He was punished for telling an unfavorable story about Mussolini, avoided court-martial by accepting a reprimand. Because of his rank, he was able to write his own reprimand and never apologized to Mussolini.
Butler retired from the military in 1931. By then, he was beginning to question US involvement in foreign conflicts. He had come to believe that war–in particular WWI–was really a profitable business for the few and at the expense of thousands of lives. He thought of himself as a cog in the imperialist war machine.
In a booklet titled War is a Racket, Butler wrote, “In the World War [I] a mere handful garnered the profits of the conflict. At least 21,000 new millionaires and billionaires were made in the United States during the World War….How many of these war millionaires shouldered a rifle?….The general public shoulders the bill. And what is this bill? …Newly placed gravestones. Mangled bodies. Shattered minds…For a great many years, as a soldier, I had a suspicion that war was a racket; not until I retired to civil life did I fully realize it. Now that I see the international war clouds gathering, as they are today, I must face it and speak out.”
War is a Racket grew out of a series of speeches Butler gave to whatever group wanted to hear his views. Though he faced criticism, Butler was steadfast in his beliefs about war, US imperialism, and a growing Pro-Fascist movement. He spoke frankly and honestly about his experiences and opinions, and was very popular with the American public.
In 1934, Butler went before the House Un-American Activities Committee (HUAC) to expose a conspiracy against the government. He had been recruited by a group of wealthy Pro-Fascists had hoped to use him in a coup against President Franklin D. Roosevelt. He went along, gathering intelligence about the plot, and took it to Congress. Butler’s assertions were not aggressively pursued, and the matter was largely dismissed. However, an internal report to Congress from HUAC confirmed the veracity of the plot.
Take heed, brethren, lest there be in any of you an evil heart of unbelief, in departing from the living God. Hebrews 3:12
Lord, I believe; help thou mine unbelief. Mark 9:24 This cry of the human heart ‘s as expressive of human need as it was when uttered to Me while I was on earth. It expresses the soul’s progress. As a soul realizes Me and My Power, and knows Me as Helper as Savior, that soul believes in Me more and more. At the same time it is more conscious than before of its falling short of absolute trust in Me.
“Lord, I believe. Help Thou mine unbelief.” The soul’s progress – an increased belief – then a cry for more faith – a plea to conquer all unbelief, all lack of trust. That cry heard. That prayer answered. More faith, and at the same time more power to see where trust is lacking. My children seek to go up this path, leading by each stage, nearer to Me.

Last night we spoke to a Pastor friend who just planted a church in Austin, Texas almost a year ago. He told us he was shocked to see how many churches were CLOSED in Texas, a state that did not require the churches to close – the just willingly did.
Dustin and I – our concerns were confirmed. When all this crazy stuff started happening last year, we wanted to get out, escape California. Get away from all the crazies. But all the doors kept slamming shut. God said “NO.” We pray all the time that He would guide us, open the doors that must open and firmly shut the ones that must close. He closed moving away – firm.
I discussed my concern with moving away from our church. Our church family is on fire for the Lord, our pastor, John Randall, is such a good teacher. He dissects the Bible, verse by verse, without deviation – it’s easy to get caught up in world topics, and forget to teach the Bible these days. But, thank you Jesus, Pastor John is anointed by You, and the Holy Spirit has taken him and is using him so powerfully. I don’t want to leave our church. It is our home, our family, so strong in guiding us always towards Jesus. Praise!
Dear Lord, thank you for Pastor John. Please bless him and his sweet family. Keep him safe from the attacks of the enemy. Bless him to continue to hear YOUR voice and guide his sheep. All of us are sheep, please keep us focused on You, the GREAT SHEPHERD. In Jesus name, Amen.
California? We see revival everywhere we turn – in the most “God-less” state – what? Take something away? Human nature – ingrained in us – we want it back. Please stay strong Christians, we must keep our eyes on Jesus, on love and on sharing the Gospel. Jesus is always the answer. California, stay focused on Jesus.
We must pray for Texas. There was no persecution in Texas – no reason to defend – so they didn’t. Shame on you Texas. Don’t let yourself fall. How scary. Didn’t Jesus warn against the sleeping church in Revelation? Remind me of that verse? If you said the Letter to Sardis, then you are correct. Now that we know, we can pray, and we will be praying for you, Texas.
Praise the LORD! The most populated state in America – California – is under persecution. We are reviving again. We are marching, united in Spirit! Families are opening their Bibles, teaching their children, and loving Jesus – Hearing HIS alive voice in text! It’s Him – you hold HIM in your hands with that book. How awesome is that?
And in the same breath, Texas is right behind us in population. They need our prayers. The sleeping church must wake up. They must not take their blessings for granted. Texas needs to find passion in the Lord again. They are asleep. Wake up Texas! We love you. Please don’t fall into the same horrible mistakes that California did. Please wake up today! Lord, please allow Texans to see that they must revive themselves again. Please raise up more Godly men and women that desire you and have passion for you Jesus. Please allow revival in that State again. In Jesus’ Name Amen.
Where is your Bible? Pick it up, let’s hear His Voice right now.
My children, I come. Hearts eager to do My Will, send out a call that ever I find irresistible.
I know no barrier then.
Resignation to My Will keeps Me more
barred from more Hearts than does unbelief. Can anything be such a crime against Love as being resigned? My Will should be welcomed with glad-wonder if I am to do My Work in the heart and life.
The only resignation that could possibly be acceptable to Me is when Self, ousted by My claims, accepts the inevitable and resigns the throne for Me, leaving My Disciple free to carry out My Will, to welcome My Will gladly, rapturously.

The fact is, if any of the things on this list describe your experience, then no matter how you slice it, you’ve got some hard work to do. And it may be years to fully recover, even withGod’s help.
What I can offer youis new light and a new understanding of your situation. Nothing I say will snap you right out of it; instantly make your life a bed of roses. But it will give you hope that there is a path out. And it might help you take your next steps on that path to a life of heaven God has in mind for you.
If any of these are much too familiar for you, I’ll be straight: There are no easy answers. Besides, you’ve probably tried the easy answer already, and learned the hard way that they don’t work.
I’m also not going to tell you that all you have to do is believe in Jesus. Believing in Jesus is great. I highly recommend it! Being born again is wonderful! But for Christians, believing in Jesus is only thestart. Then come the many years of growing from spiritual infancy to spiritual maturity.

Please forgive me If I come on too strong. I get a little anxious When I talk about God’s Love. Hold me back now, Stop me if I begin to preachy,‘Cause I don’t want to be the one To push you out of reach.

Wealth and riches be in His house: righteousness endures forever; that’s a long, long time; as Prince Rogers taught; still does. see, music is eternal. As is honest faith in Yaweh. Persevere in saying that a gradual feeling of being plentifully supplied and being surrounded by riches will possess you. The feeling of plenty is your faith claiming His Supply, according to your faith it shall be given unto you. But it is not the faith expressed in the moments of prayer or exaltation; it’s Him who looks for it; it is faith that immediately lays to rest any doubt of the days, as they arise, we attacking such conquers any sense of limitation. “Ask and ye shall receive.” do it…

And in the same breath, Texas is right behind us in population. They need our prayers. The sleeping church must wake up. They must not take their blessings for granted. Texas needs to find passion in the Lord again. They are asleep. Wake up Texas! We love you. Please don’t fall into the same horrible mistakes that California did. Please wake up today! Lord, please allow Texans to see that they must revive themselves again. Please raise up more Godly men and women that desire you and have passion for you Jesus. Please allow revival in that State again. In Jesus’ Name Amen.
Where is your Bible? Pick it up, let’s hear His Voice right now.
My children, I come. Hearts eager to do My Will, send out a call that ever I find irresistible.
I know no barrier then.
Resignation to My Will keeps Me more
barred from more Hearts than does unbelief. Can anything be such a crime against Love as being resigned? My Will should be welcomed with glad-wonder if I am to do My Work in the heart and life.
The only resignation that could possibly be acceptable to Me is when Self, ousted by My claims, accepts the inevitable and resigns the throne for Me, leaving My Disciple free to carry out My Will, to welcome My Will gladly, rapturously.

The fact is, if any of the things on this list describe your experience, then no matter how you slice it, you’ve got some hard work to do. And it may be years to fully recover, even withGod’s help.
What I can offer youis new light and a new understanding of your situation. Nothing I say will snap you right out of it; instantly make your life a bed of roses. But it will give you hope that there is a path out. And it might help you take your next steps on that path to a life of heaven God has in mind for you.
If any of these are much too familiar for you, I’ll be straight: There are no easy answers. Besides, you’ve probably tried the easy answer already, and learned the hard way that they don’t work.
I’m also not going to tell you that all you have to do is believe in Jesus. Believing in Jesus is great. I highly recommend it! Being born again is wonderful! But for Christians, believing in Jesus is only thestart. Then come the many years of growing from spiritual infancy to spiritual maturity.

Wealth and riches be in His house: righteousness endures forever; that’s a long, long time; as Prince Rogers taught; still does. see, music is eternal. As is honest faith in Yaweh. Persevere in saying that a gradual feeling of being plentifully supplied and being surrounded by riches will possess you. The feeling of plenty is your faith claiming His Supply, according to your faith it shall be given unto you. But it is not the faith expressed in the moments of prayer or exaltation; it’s Him who looks for it; it is faith that immediately lays to rest any doubt of the days, as they arise, we attacking such conquers any sense of limitation. “Ask and ye shall receive.” do it…

the virus continues to run roughshod over many U.S.
communities, but especially those in which the rate of
vaccination is far below national averages. Thanks to the
ability of the vaccines to vastly reduce risk of serious illness,
even in the case of breakthrough infections, nearly all of the
country’s COVID-related deaths are now among those who
are unvaccinated. Nothing has illustrated this point with
more grim irony; the rash of deaths among high-profile
anti-vaccine and anti-mask advocates, the last month.
In recent weeks, at least 7 different anti-vaccine and
anti-mask conservative activists ultimately died
in hospital settings from COVID-19 and its complications.
The men were radio hosts Bob Enyart, Phil Valentine,
Marc Bernier and Dick Farrel, with former CIA officer/conspiracy theorist Robert David Steele,
South Carolina GOP leader Pressley Stutts, and
anti-vaccine activist Caleb Wallace. All had used
their platforms to push various bits of information
about the virus, masks and the vaccines, all were
ultimately brought low by the very virus they refused
to take seriously; several recanted their anti-vaccine
stances in particular before passing away, by then it
was too late. Florida radio dj Dick Farrel, real name
Farrel Austin Levitt, passed away from COVID-19 in
early August at the age of 65, according to his fiancée.
In the months before contracting the virus, he repeatedly r
eferred to the vaccines as a hoax, calling Dr. Anthony Fauci
“a power-tripping lying freak.” Writing on Facebook in July,
shortly before contracting the virus, he questioned the fol-
lowing: “Why take a vax promoted by people who lied 2u all
along about masks, where the virus came from and the death
toll?” Roughly a month later, Farrel was dead, after reportedly
encouraging friends, family to get the vaccine; he languished in
the hospital. According to a friend of Farrel’s, the radio host also
said he wished he had received the vaccine himself. The story is
quite similar with Nashville, Tennessee conservative radio host
Phil Valentine, an anti-vaccine advocate who died of COVID-19
in mid-August after a month of being ill. Prior to contracting the
virus, he insisted on air that his chances of death from the virus
were “way less than one percent.” During his illness, his station,
99.7 WTN, clarified that Valentine had changed his position and
“regrets not being more vehemently ‘pro-vaccine,’ and looks forward to being able to more vigorously advocate that position as soon as he is back on the air, which we all hope will be soon.”
Valentine, unfortunately, would not have that chance. His brother,
Mark Valentine, put out the following statement after the radio
host’s death, urging people to forget the political attachment
that has grown up around what should be a simple matter of
public health.“Take politics out of it,” said Mark Valentine to
WBUR.
“It’s time for us to get together and fight this thing collectively. Just put all the conspiracies and microchips and all that business aside and go be vaccinated don’t put your family through what his wife and the rest of us are going through.”
Even younger anti-vaccine advocates have diedas result of contracting
the virus in A recent week, such as 30-year-old Caleb Wallace, a
father of three who was known for organizing anti-mask and anti-
vaccine
“FreedomRallies?” call them what they are:wanna die parties “
After contracting the virus in late July, Wallace initially refused
to be tested for COVID, and instead turned to a sampler of home
remedies that conspiracy-driven far-right onlinecommunities
have hailed as coronavirus cure-alls;
‘cording to Wallace’s wife,
these treatments reportedly included high doses of Vitamin C,
zinc, aspirin and Ivermectin, the anti-parasitic drug for farm
livestock currently being touted as a miracle anti-COVID drug
in right-wing circles. And Ivermectin has indeed been used in
some scenarios for treating human patients, it has not been
FDA-approved for the treatment of COVID in humans…‘

Wouldn’t you love to stop worrying? Could you use a strong shelter from life’s harsh elememys? God offers you just that the possibility worry-free life? He created a dome for your heart, “His peace will guard your hearts and minds as you live in Christ Jesus” Philippians 4:7 Daily Lesson When you awake tomorrow it will be time to begin anew. That which you did yesterday is in the past. If things did not go right, time to correct them; If God was good to you it is time to pay it forward. If you had a bad day it is time to put it in the past. Today is another chance to go and say thank You Lord All you have given Me and mine.
