Employer decided they receive federal funds and have to have everyone vax'ed per Dear Leader's mandate. Now I will either get vax'ed, which with my immune system likely means death or a (shortened) lifetime of pain, or I will lose my job and house (which we finally were able to afford after 11 years of building credit.)
Trump allowed Biden to take office. He didn't want to use the insurrection act, but Biden will use it soon, to declare any unvaccinated people domestic terrorists.
If something is going to happen it has to happen now. Otherwise we need to do something ourselves, and I don't mean protest, be declared terroristic threats and get locked up in solitary without any rights.
We keep watching and getting optimistic about this, then pessimistic about that, then optimistic again. It's all a game - and we're not winning. Every day locks democrats in power for longer and longer.
Happy to hear people's thoughts, but I don't see life coming back. My faith is in God, who promises peace for His children, but in the NEXT world. Not this one.
The peace you experience in this life is a direct reflection of knowing where your destination is. You are not promised a life free of pain, turmoil and death. You are not assured that your children will be fed, that you'll have a roof over your head, and that you do not have to watch your spouse go without life-saving medication. All you are assured of is that there is life with faith in Christ. That the suffering will one day be over.
Yes, that's tremendous. But it doesn't solve any of our issues here in the present. And if there's a secret to suffering with a smile because of this knowledge, I have yet to find it.
There is a secret and His name is Jesus. I’m sorry for sounding blunt. John 16:33 “I have told you these things so that you can Have Peace in me. In this world you will have Trouble, but Take Heart! I have overcome the world!”
Jesus has conquered it all! Now He lives in you! He sent his Spirit to indwell in you! Are you reading His Scripture? Are you talking to Jesus? Are you Listening to the Holy Spirit? Did you put in the Full Armor of God Today?
Put on some worship music and Praise Him… watch all your fears and troubles melt away in His Presence!
