I just wanted to start a post checking in on everyone and how they are feeling? I will go first. I am tired. I remember Tammie had said in a post a few weeks ago that we have all been watching for so long and seen all the "things", watched the slow but sure set up of war for Israel, seen all the prerequisites of the setting up of the mark of the beast and the system. We have seen falling away spiritually, lawlessness, spiritual darkness, evil run amok, unchecked and without consequences. We have seen signs in the sun, moon and stars. We have seen the lies perpetrated to believe in aliens. We have seen the spread of an intentional pestilence and the subsequent attack on our freedoms. We have seen sin openly celebrated and getting worse daily. We have seen people leave the church in mass (but fortunately the actual church is warning, praying and working to see as many saved as possible before it's too late). We have seen and heard of earthquakes, volcanoes, animal die offs, extreme weather and flooding. We have also seen many a "high" watch day come and go. Outside of seeing Israel fully attack Iran or an actual contract or covenant set to be signed with Israel for 7 years which includes peace....I don't get overly excited about any particular "news" that comes out anymore. Don't get me wrong.....I will still keep reading and watching and I will never stop looking for our Lord.....I still believe we are on the very edge of the cusp of going Home but I am trying to not to get my hopes up too high for this month. I tend to get discouraged a bit more than I used to when those watch days come and go. I just feel like someone who has been visiting somewhere and have had a long delay in trying to get back home..... I don't feel at home here. I am blessed in that I still have family and friends whose company I enjoy but I find it difficult to make any plans for the holidays or the winter. I am thankful for all of my siblings here :rose: I imagine many of you feel the same....I guess misery loves company...lol I agree, with all of that said, I’m still hoping for a high sign from God himself! With God being exacting as he is, He can also be very specific! But for those who wait upon the Lord will not be disappointed! TR Skittish about high-watch dates... Thanks for asking, ChurchGal. I've been sooo crushed in the past. I hear me say to me, "Don't even think about that 'hopeful' date this week, Dan! Not even the 31st! Just dig deep and hang on!" True that! Keeping our hope in check will mitigate any possible disappointments! Let us still hope in all things, reflecting our trust in the Lord! TR Right there with you churchgal. I find myself extracting from more and more from the noise of this world, even in the church where it seems like the message, at least in the church where we are members is "all is well, carry on." Its like there is a pandemic of spiritual blindness -- I just can't explain it any other way. I'm over here in the corner (figuratively) jumping up and down shouting that Jesus is coming and everyone is else is just walking around like zombies or looking at me like I'm a kook. Yes I'm kooky for Jesus.
