This is a good time!
Yes, I know prices of food are going up. Yes, there is political unrest. Yes, even Mr. Burns' inspiration for The Simpsons has 'moved on to his eternal' and it is easy to have fear for who that spirit went into next as succession.
This is a war upon wars. There is an unrestricted unconventional warfare taking place. Perhaps some of the cybersecurity people are aware of part of it. I call it an information war, a psychological one. But deeper still, this war is a spiritual one.
Why rejoice?
First of all, we are all connected to Source. This can never be broken. And if you pay close attention, literally everything boils down to our ability to change our reaction to things. Furthermore this reaction can be classified into FEAR or LOVE.
I just did my Bible study and read Ezekiel 34:25-31. It was very, very timely and healing.
It is easy to get wrapped up into the fear of the unknown, especially now in what are considered by many to be The End Times. And Bible Prophecy says there are a lot of really icky things in store for us, actual Tribulations. Experts say we are at the end of the portion of time called the Beginning of Sorrows.
The Rapture I don't know. I don't know what order it comes in, and I try not to focus on that. Why? It would be a shame to think I had a guaranteed way out of the suffering and then figure out that I was left behind and didn't get to go! To me this is practical!
In the Bible study God reminds us that when He is done 'cleansing' that there will be a time of Peace and 'a shower of blessings'.
There was a short movie I saw many years ago, about how prayer helps to protect us from Spiritual harm. It is like a force field around yourself and your home. Therefore, strive to always be humble, and yearning for Creator. Study what spiritual books make the most sense to you. And ask for Divine Guidance as you proceed. Even to the point of saying for God to point out and correct any and all of your mistakes in the process.
Some things are better left under the radar.
In WW2 Sicily my ancestors survived by blending in and not calling attention to themselves. My mother warned me that in the event of chaos, do not be a hero. The goal is survival.
Also in WW2 Sicily, in the tiny little village, the villagers knew what peculiar meat the priests and nuns ate that was evil. They did not let on that they knew. But the truth was the Truth. The spin on the story was a little more 'practical' (getting rid of evidence of misconduct) than the even worse knowledge of what was going on behind the facade of 'religious life'. That is okay, it doesn't have to be every detail.
Today also in a group, a spiritual group, someone mentioned (the leader) how people can't 'hear' spiritual Truth. They leave to follow others. Or it is like talking to a wall. This is normal. This slumber isn't one a regular alarm clock will break because it is truthfully something magical, a form of enchantment, that is blocking these individuals ability to perceive reality. A reality that for some of us is totally obvious and clear to those who have ears that hear and eyes that see (what is hidden in plain sight).
Today's message is two-fold: validation that not only something 'funny' is going on that is unsettling, but that directing it one vast level of rank and power above the source of chaos, is a Divine Being who loves us completely and is going to bring peace and prosperity when all is said and done. The other message is that our ancestors have shown us through history how to survive chaos. If they had not been able to figure this out, we would no longer be here. So however chaos appears to you, be certain to dig deep, trust your instincts, and ask for blessings both from your deceased loved ones and your guides and Creator.
Be strong and be thankful that ultimately, the end is in sight, and what has been promised is worth the wait!
clap! clap!
