It’s Really Not That Complicated

Life’s circumstances can be overwhelming.

As human beings we often follow a convoluted path through our challenges, demands and finding the answers to our questions.

God is certainly complex, but His solutions are actually very simple.

The simple truth of Christian living is this:

There is only one day.  (That’s today).

There is only one God.  (The God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, the great I Am)

There is only one way to God (through Jesus)

There is only one course of action God requires for every single obstacle and question you face (Converse with God)

Conversing with God consists of two parts, hearing Him, and speaking to Him.

Hear God by studying His Word

Speak to God about everything by petition, praise, and always with thanksgiving.

Abiding by these things will simplify the complicated, soothe the anxious heart, and declutter the troubled mind.  Apply it to whatever is troubling you today, and see what a difference it makes.

If you don”t know what to do about some specific thing, you can at least do what you know to do.  If you do what you know to do, you’ll be surprised how other things will fall into place!   Study your Bible and pray!

Simple prayer for today:

“Lord, please make me what I ought to be, and please prepare me for what You know lies ahead of me.  In Jesus name, Amen”.

 

 A man’s heart deviseth his way: but the Lord directeth his steps. –Proverbs 16:9

Israeli Defense Forces Preparing for War

Officer: ‘We are Preparing for Possibility of War’

By Gil Ronin

 

“We are in preparations for the possibility of war and in the midst of deployment with the situation in Syria in mind,” a top IDF officer said Thursday, in a tour of the northern border with journalists.

The greatest challenge facing Division 36, which is placed in the Golan, is the possibility of facing a surprise attack, said the officer, Brig. Gen. Tamir Heiman, Commander of Division 36. “The biggest concern is a combined terror attack and we are preparing for this in the Golan area.” Read More

Is the world about to repeat the economic catastrophe of 1931?

A growing chorus of economists of all stripes thinks so.

"Suddenly normally calm economists are talking about 1931, the year everything fell apart," writes Nobel prize winning economist Paul Krugman in the New York Times.

"The parallels between Europe in the 1930s and Europe today are stark, striking, and increasingly frightening, write Bradford DeLong and Barry Eichengreen in…

Obamacare stands and another domino falls

like a row of dominoes kings are falling down
like a row of dominoes economies are falling down
like a row of dominoes religions are faling down
falling down  like dominoes x 2
dominoes began to fall in the Arab world dominoes will start to fall in the western world
Gaddafi has fallen down Mubarak has fallen down Ben Ali has fallen down Mugabe is falling down

Like a row of dominoes they are falling down
CHORUS Humpty Dumpty sat on the wall Humpty dumpty had a great fall Like a row of dominoes- by Arthur Owiti

We might add…

The Eurozone is falling down, Damascus is falling down, America is falling down, morality, has fallen down, civility has fallen down, and common sense and logic have become extinct altogether.  What was once good is now bad and what was bad is called good.  Just like the Bible said it would be!

Obamacare was upheld despite the will of the people and congress……and another dominio falls!

 

 

Boldly Go

I was driving through my small VA town recently, and noticed a billboard at one of the major intersections that featured a scene out of a Star Treck episode.  I got the red light, so I had a minute to take a look at it.  It featured George Takei (who played the character Sulu in Star Treck) and Patty Duke, standing at the controls of the Enterprise, and the caption read “Boldly Go, sign up for Food Stamps, Medicare, Medicaid and Disability” and gave phone numbers and web adresses.

Can there be any doubt that there is a deliberate, calculated move to overload the system and destroy the U.S. economy with debt and unfunded liabilities. Our president, a self-professed globalist, is definitely doing his part.  A course has been set and can’t be reversed at this point.

US-Israeli War Games (Operation Dress Rehearsal) conveniently set for just prior to US elections

I find the timing of this extremely interesting!

US-Israel War Games against Iran Planned near Elections (Source)

The United States and Israel are planning war games involving simulated attacks against Iran and Syria. Coincidence or not, the exercises will take place less than a month before elections November 6.

Thousands of soldiers will participate in the war games under simultaneous and simulated missile fire from Syria and Iran, the Hebrew language Maariv newspaper reported. It said that the exercise will be named “dress rehearsal,” a thinly veiled message to Iran of the possibility of a military attack on its unsupervised nuclear program if Tehran does not cooperate with United Nations inspectors.

President Barack Obama is seen as wanting to postpone any military action until after the elections, in which he will be running for re-election against Republican Mitt Romney.

Iran has suffered numerous cyber attacks in the past year, presumably originating from Israel and the United States, in an effort to cripple computer programs operating nuclear facilities, particularly those where Iran is enriching uranium, a key element for a nuclear weapon.

On the military front, Israel has beefed up its submarine force, which is reportedly equipped with nuclear weapons.

Recent U.S. defense contracts to arm its navy with more Tomahawk cruise missiles may possibly be intended to deplete reserves that were used for bombing missions against Muammar Qaddafi but also may be designated for a future attack, Business Insider noted.

“Taking out radar and aircraft defenses would be one step in an Iranian attack. Another, equally as vital, would be determining where Tehran’s fleet of submarines may be parked in the Persian Gulf,” it said.

The U.S. Navy also has ordered 17,000 sonar buoys that are used to work with other buoys to locate underwater objects but also might be intended for research for an unknown mission.
