Mercy! I am not shocked but I was not aware we (U.S.) were prepping for war. I mean I did not think we would be engaging in combat. Does that make sense. I had figured we were only supplying the Ukrainians.......

Oh dear,  praying!

The second charge of the light brigade, all over again?

It is interesting to see the reasons for the first Crimean war:

Crimean War, (October 1853–February 1856), war fought mainly on the Crimean Peninsula between the Russians and the British, French, and Ottoman Turkish, with support from January 1855 by the army of Sardinia-Piedmont. The war arose from the conflict of great powers in the Middle East and was more directly caused by Russian demands to exercise protection over the Orthodox subjects of the Ottoman sultan. Another major factor was the dispute between Russia and France over the privileges of the Russian Orthodox and Roman Catholic churches in the holy places in Palestine.

I do wonder if there is a secret motivation for this potential conflict and not what they are saying... ?

The thing that puzzles me is if we are about to go to war then why aren't the big transport planes flying over my house like they always do when war is on the horizon? Those of you in Southern California, is Pendleton more active than usual? Those of you in eastern North Carolina, is Seymour Johnson airforce base overly active? If not, then I have my doubts about this.

I am taking my eyes off this. I prayed about it and now I ask the Lord to keep us safe and let it go.

Agreed, Susan. It is in the Lord's Hands.

This is a beautiful Psalm and very appropriate for this situation. (Note verse 5. :))

Psalm 27:1-5

New King James Version

An Exuberant Declaration of Faith

A Psalm of David.

27 The Lord is my light and my salvation;

Whom shall I fear?

The Lord is the strength of my life;

Of whom shall I be afraid?

2 When the wicked came against me

To eat up my flesh,

My enemies and foes,

They stumbled and fell.

3 Though an army may encamp against me,

My heart shall not fear;

Though war may rise against me,

In this I will be confident.

4 One thing I have desired of the Lord,

That will I seek:

That I may dwell in the house of the Lord

All the days of my life,

To behold the beauty of the Lord,

And to inquire in His temple.

5 For in the time of trouble

He shall hide me in His pavilion;

In the secret place of His tabernacle

He shall hide me;

He shall set me high upon a rock.

:thankyou  so much Authur. This is one of my favorites. I have a special place, a secret hiding place where I am close to Him, safe and secure...I rest and He refills my cup, over and over and over
