TIMES AND PLACES

 I send greetings in the name of Jesus our Lord and Savior:

    I am writing to all of you in Christ who have felt much like they were dragging their bodies through each day because of various Spiritual attacks that have gotten so heavy that you almost want to give in to the weight of things.

  For many people today in Christ the feeling of hanging on by a thread is not at all unusual, but it is getting to be more normal than we may realize throughout this world.  My thought today is for those who sometimes hang on by a fingernail to the principals they know are right no matter what the temptation is or what the circumstances are.  I tell the men in my study group that it is very important not only that we hang on, but that we hang on together.  I want for you to be encouraged by knowing we are all in an extremely difficult fight for our lives while we live this life in this place...it is no longer our home any more than it was Christ's home. When we begin to see that fact we can start to cling to the home we have, and yet have never seen personally.

  This brings up the question " If this world hates me for loving God why am I still loyal to this world?  We may be stuck here for now but we should do the same thing every other immigrant from somewhere else does...they send their money home so that those they love benefit.  The time for us to go home is fast on the horizon so it is time we began to prepare for what is our real-life future.  May you richly bless God through your life in Him.
