Hi and blessings to all....Jesus is Lord and king! As we see the day approaching, let us continue to pray and fast! I am grateful and thankful to meet you all here . Our Lord is coming back...we shall see Him face to face! May our hearts not be troubled or weighed down with the cares of this world, but trust and look to Him daily! He is our rock and our deliverer. My daughter is back in the states from Australia ( had not seen her in 3 years). Since she has been back, I was able to visit with her for 2 days. She is a bridesmaid in a wedding and has been visiting friends and others.... I am praying I will be able to spend a few hours or days more with her ( my grown kids do not like to spend time with me much.....even though I am their mom..... they are 'of the world' and there is a ' chasm' between us ( spiritual distance). They cannot listen to anything important when I bring subjects up ..I have loved them and continue to....keep conversations loving....but secretly, am heartbroken. I pray for them to return...they once professed Jesus and all were baptized as older children. Anyway, I digress.... She returns back to Australia next month.....I do not know when I shall see her again. Pray for me! Thanks! And pray for my 4 adult girls! I hope everyone is doing well...I shall pray for You as well!

Yes....my kids and family accepted it without questioning. And they all become very upset with me if I say anything negative about it..or warn about future "dj's"( deceitful jabs). I pray everyday that I will not be deceived by the world... and cry out to my Father in heaven for the lost. I was given a "word picture" this morning during prayer .... a white pillar... and then I saw a "caving in" of what appeared to be what was once a roof. There were other white pillars around ....and they were located "around" the caved "middle" of the room I was in.... I was given interpretation immediately that a few of the people are "pillars" in the faith...and that we need to stand...and keep standing... and be the salt and light ( Matthew 6) as this world crumbles...keep looking up, saints!

@empass I think I know 5 people who have "not" taken " deceitful jab"... I am praying for those who have....it just shows how quickly and easily people are deceived. Dear Lord, please help us!

What is interesting to me is how many people have been deceived... even within the church. My heart sank when our pastor announced he took the Demanding deceitful...and many have....including my 4 grown daughters. I am praying for "like-minded" individuals ( like on this site) as we need each other!! I will trust in God and not fear ( Ps.27) and continue to do the things He has asked me to do.....and just pray for others. Come over to my house for a cup of tea or coffee...we can talk!! Would love to do that!! We are in Washington State, though.... Blessings,

@Isaiah61steward Staying for now ... trusting God! He will be my guide!

@empass Also...Washington still has mandates in place until mid-March!! Yes, Washington is more restricted and it has been difficult, for sure! I have not seen 2 of my grown children for 3 years! One lives in Australia ( she hasnt been able to travel because of lock downs, etc.) and my other lives in San Diego. She has not wanted to visit me because I have not taken the "jab". It is sad how this whole thing has divided families...I feel for those who have lost their jobs, etc., because of requirements. Fortunately, my place of employment has been relaxed. Prov. 3:5,6... Trust in the Lord and lean not unto thine own understanding....in all thy ways acknowledge Him and He will direct your paths"

@empass Hi, Em, We live in a rural area ...our church is a community one and there are others, but they are about an hour's drive away. I know that there are no perfect churches as we, (people), are imperfect Our pastor is stressing the need for small group meetings ( life groups) and they will be starting up in March. However, the division and mis-trust people have ( even with Christians), I am hoping to be able to share with others without walking on egg shells.... I will pray for your kids and all those people who have prodigals...Thank you for sharing the scriptures of hope and promises ....I needed those!❤️ God bless... Keep writing! Kari

Hi, Washingtonian! I would love to move out....as much as I love the beauty of this state. I pray for this state all the time. I live in Chelan county...many new people have recently moved here from Seattle area... I DO like Spokane.... our state is dragging its heels on mandates, tho'

thanks!

It is easy to fall into despair, but God is our light and our Salvation? We shall not fear... I love Psalms 27... I will be glad and thankful... Hebrews 13.... He will never leave us nor forsake us! We are on the home stretch, I think! Does anyone feel it? I am sad for those I know who are not in the "ark" of safety with Jesus . Please pray for my grown kids...Heidi, Gina, April, Kate ... 32, 31, 24, 23 years...they were all baptized when young.....the enemy has infiltrated.....I am weary of not seeing any change...need extra prayers to hold my hands up! Kari

@Isaiah61steward Washington State...rural ...

A remnant saint! Looking for a friend!! I have NONE! I love Jesus!!❤️

I dont live anywhere near Kansas, but I understand the need for fellowship! I am in an isolated area...am praying for a friend to share with... my kids are grown. I live with my husband. My church and pastor do not "understand" my pain... my pastor openly said he took something ( that is being pushed...but I disagree with).. and I cant talk to many around me. Hopefully, there are others like me.... I would like to pray and share....

Hi....I am wondering how you are doing? I am looking for like-minded believers.... I live in Washington....
