STANDING ALONE

SOMETIMES, I FEEL AS THOUGH I'M STANDING ALONE ON THIS JOURNEY I'M ON; BUT INVARIABLY I KNOW THAT MY SAVIOR STANDS RIGHT HERE BESIDE ME. IN HIS WORD HE HAS PROMISED US THAT HE WILL NEVER LEAVE, NOR FORSAKE US.

THAT'S COMFORTING; DESPITE THE CIRCUMSTANCE I FIND MYSELF IN. I'VE MADE SOME DIFFICULT DECISIONS ALONG THE WAY; AND SOME RATHER RASH ONES AS WELL. TO MY OWN DISCREDIT, I'VE MARCHED BLINDLY INTO THE ENEMIES CAMP, AND LEFT MY SPIRITUAL ARMOR BEHIND.

SOMETIMES WE DO THE WRONG THING; FOR ALL OF THE RIGHT REASONS.

I'VE RECENTLY STUMBLED INTO THE PRODUCTION OF SOME YOU TUBE VIDEO'S; WITHOUT REGARD TO THE CONSEQUENCES; AND NOW I'VE IMPERELLED MY FAMILY BY BOLDLY; YET NAIVELY TAKING ON THE "ENEMY",ON MY OWN- SOMETHING THE WORD EXPRESSLY WARNS US AGAINST, I'M PARAPHRASING HERE, BUT THE WORD SAY'S EVEN THE ANGELS DON'T, IN THEIR OWN AUTHORITY-REBUKE THE DEVIL; BUT SAY, THE LORD REBUKE THEE Satan.

WELL HERE I AM LICKING MY WOUNDS, AND I'M JUST NOW BEGINNING TO FEEL THE HEAT OF MY ERROR (FOR OUR ENEMY, NEITHER SLUMBERS OR SLEEPS) I JUST HOPE, AND PRAY THAT MY MISSTEP DOESN'T PLACE MY FAMILY IN THE CROSS HAIRS!!!

SO WHAT DID I DO, THAT WOULD CAUSE SUCH GREAT DISTRESS?

WELL I DECIDED TO MAKE THE BOLD ASSUMPTION; PUBLICLY, THAT OUR PRESIDENT MAY BE THE ANTICHRIST; WELL SOME MAY ASK, WELL WHAT'S WRONG WITH THAT, A LOT OF PEOPLE ARE SAYING THE EXACT SAME THING?

POINT ONE: THIS IS THE SAME THING AS SAYING "HERE I AM Satan, GO AHEAD AND SHOOT ME!
POINT TWO: IT'S NOT A GOOD CHOICE, TO TAKE ON THE MOST POWERFUL MAN IN THE WORLD; AND RISK YOUR LIFE, AND THE LIVES OF YOUR FAMILY AS WELL; ON AN ASSUMPTION, EVEN IF IT IS WELL FOUNDED.

THE TRUTH IS, NO ONE REALLY KNOWS FOR SURE IF HE IS, OR ISN'T THE ANTICHRIST; IN MY VIDEO I LEFT IT SPECULATIVE; AND WENT AS FAR AS NAMING SOME OTHERS AS WELL; TO COVER MY "ASSETS" SO TO SPEAK. YET CURIOUSLY; I'VE BEEN TARGETED AS A RESULT OF MY BLATHERING. I WOULD GO INTO DETAIL HERE; BUT THAT WOULD ONLY FURTHER ENDANGER THOSE THAT I LOVE.

SO WHAT'S A FOOL TO DO? I CAN'T RETRACT WHAT'S BEEN SAID; AND THAT ISN'T MY POINT HERE EITHER. THE POINT I AM TRYING TO MAKE IS THIS: TAKE IT FROM A FOOLISH MAN, BEFORE YOU TAKE ON THE ENEMY, AT LEAST DO SO UNDER GODS INSTRUCTION; AND WITH A LOT OF PRAYER.

THE FINAL OUT COME IS YET TO BE DETERMINED, MAYBE "THOSE WHO ARE WATCHING" WILL TAKE IT AS THE RAMBLINGS OF A FOOL, OR MAYBE NOT?

I JUST FIND IT CURIOUS; THAT I WOULD BE THE RECIPIENT OF SUCH ONSLAUGHT; IF I WASN'T AT LEAST A LITTLE CLOSE TO THE TARGET?

SOMETHING TO PONDER.
SHALOM (PEACE)
