4.27- We are living in a time of chaos and disorder.

 4.27-

We are living in a time of chaos and disorder. Since 3.11.20 we have been fighting a pandemic. On 1.6.21 we had an attack on our capitol that was the first time we have not had a peaceful transfer of power in our democratic government. A democracy depends upon a certain amount of mutual trust in each other playing fair. We expect our elections to be conducted with honesty and fairness. This was challenged by both major parties and bad things happened to our government leaders in that some were threatened with being hanged. Some people were beaten up and one was killed in the attack on our congress. I am 75 and this was the closest I believe we have come to a change in our government through a violent attack on the capitol. Then a potential WWIII starts to develop in the Ukraine.
These are times when we need to remember certain truths.
Watch out for deception from false speakers whether they are politicians, preachers or news people.
Wars and rumors of them are not new, but very old. Cain was given the freedom to kill his brother, but not permission to do so.
Enemies of God will try to destroy people and the beauty of life.
Change happens suddenly. Two weeks before the Ukraine war it was said that many of them did not believe this change could happen. I did happen and it should be no surprise to those who read Jesus.
Nothing is set to remain except the words of Jesus.
Matthew 24.
35 Heaven and earth will pass away, but My words will not pass away.
Not buildings. They come and go. Not even nations. They come and go. Build your hopes on things eternal. Jesus Christ and His word.
Psalm 119.
113 I hate those who are double-minded,
But I love Your Law.

9.4- Broken eggs.

9.4- Broken eggs. I had been warned Don't try to carry too much in from the grocery store at once. Learn the hard way or the easy way. Why does the only thing that falls off is the most fragile? The carton was crushed. Several eggs were broken. I have learned to keep looking when a little frustration comes to stay alert. Some good can come out of something bad. Getting laid off from the wrong job can lead to the right job. Getting bumped from the wrong flight to get the right flight, five minutes later plus a free flight. Now I watch for the turn and learn from frustrating little things. Broken eggs. Scrambled eggs. Romans 12 14  Bless those who persecute  [ q ] you; bless and do not curse.   15  Rejoice with those who rejoice, and weep with those who weep.   16  Be of the same mind toward one another; do not be  [ r ] haughty in mind, but  [ s ] associate with the lowly. Do not be wise in your own estimation.   17  Never repay evil for evil to anyone.  [ t ] Respect what is right

 9.2- There was this grasshopper who appeared to be very old and very wounded. He drug himself along. Where he was amazed me. On the ground level at the gas station near Gordon Texas was dirt and oil and the danger of feet and tires. As I pumped 39.30 worth of fuel I wondered how did he get out of the dirt and danger to the safety of the top of the gas pump? As I get older I sometimes feel I am dragging along like a grasshopper. My spirit is fueled by seeing how my life includes my maker providing safety for me by the help of family, friends and strangers. Two such are my nephew, Lynn And Sheri Luttrell. He is a prof. at ACU and she the owner and leader of stepping Stones school. Got to spent two days of fun, 42 and homemade ice cream last week. Ecclesiastes 12. 12  Remember also your Creator in the days of your youth, before the evil days come and the years approach when you will say, “I have no pleasure in them”;   2  before the sun and the light, the moon and the stars are darkened

 9.3- I have been given a bed to go to sleep in where a window is high and laying on my back I can see the moon at times. Flat of my back I can choose to think of the maker of the moon. A space craft from India landed there yesterday near the south pole of the moon where they think there may be water. Once the greatest human who ever lived faced his hardest days. He spoke words of steady trust and submission to his loving heavenly Father, maker of heaven and earth. "If possible may this cup be taken from me. Yet not as I will, but as you will." Matthew 26. 39  And He went a little beyond  them , and fell on His face and prayed, saying,  “My Father, if it is possible, let this cup pass from Me; yet not as I will, but as You  will .”   40  And He *came to the disciples and *found them sleeping, and He *said to Peter,  “So, you  men  could not keep watch with Me for one hour?   41  Keep watching and praying, so that you do not come into temptation; the spirit is  [ p ] willing,
