This site is made in honor of my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ who gave His life for me and whose blood has covered over my transgressions and thus reconciled me with the Father to whom forever be the glory!

This site contains pictures, videos, commentary, links, posts, writings,etc. meant to in one way or another, directly or indirectly lift up the Name, the ONLY name, under heaven, given to men, by which we must be saved, Jesus Christ.

The postings on this site are meant to provide the believer with uplifting testimony from the Spirit. If you are a believer and feel there is anything which may be perceived as detrimental to the cause and/or advancement of the Gospel, please let me know.

My personal writings are meant to inspire, instruct, and instill a grateful spirit, for I believe it is only right to give thanks to the One responsible for all things and to stay in constant contact with Him.

In addition, this site will in many ways help us to stay awake, as we await THE DAY! It is my firm belief that it is our generation that will come to see the events foretold and pre-ordained before the foundation of the earth spoken of through the prophets and to John, the beloved apostle who "testifies to everything he saw—that is, the word of God and the testimony of Jesus Christ" and whose unveiling declares that "Blessed is the one who reads the words of this prophecy, and blessed are those who hear it and take to heart what is written in it, because the time is near."

Like always, LET US REJOICE IN THE LORD, as we "await in eager expectation for the sons of God to be revealed."

AMEN.

Anxiety

https://www.usatoday.com/story/opinion/2017/10/02/las-vegas-shooting-prayer-way-combat-our-national-anxiety-max-lucado-column/722771001/

Lucado hits it right on the head:

The United States is now the most anxious nation in the world. Congratulations to the us! The land of the stars and stripes has become the country of stress and strife.

 He touches on something I mentioned https://lastdaysdisciple.blogspot.com/2011/02/matthew-246-8.html in 02/2011... "All these things(wars, rumors of wars, famines, earthquakes, etc.)  have happened at one point or another in time, singularly or in conjunction. But what has NEVER happened is the ability the world has to HEAR about these events the very moment they take place. In the 1800's, if something happened in New Zealand, chances are people in the rest of the world wouldn't know about it for months if not years. In the 1900's, if the same happened, people in the rest of the world would be aware within a day or two. But in the 2000's, if something happens in new zealand, the rest of the world is made aware within MINUTES."

 And we have to navigate our lives awash in a constant sea of adrenaline. Every few seconds changes and new threats are imported into our lives thanks to smart phones, TVs and computer screens. In our grandparents’ generation news of an earthquake in Nepal would reach around the world some days or weeks later. In our parent’s day the nightly news communicated the disaster. Now it is a matter of minutes or even seconds. We’ve barely processed one crisis before we hear of another.
