Praying an for Donald John Trump, my country, and us, the American people, and Israel at this most dire and urgent time.

As i watched this video again, amidst tears and praying those words, i was reminded, again. And that is, that the enemies of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness are not after "us", the American people, they're after those exact same things i mentioned. And that would be "life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness"..... the very foundation of the liberty and freedoms of this country. THERE'S the bigger picture right there. Those same principles that define us as a "Republic". They're after our "sovereignty". Praying for Donald John Trump, that God strengthens and sustains him, protects him and grants him favor, and all that he needs (and more) to carry on in this journey, in Jesus' name, to the God Who makes "possible" the seemingly "impossible", against a tsunami and THEN some, of odds, and Who can bring justice in the midst of a slithering "snakepit" of corruption. To the very same God Who asks "Is anything too hard for Me?" (Jeremiah 22:37)

Amen.

Praying an SOS prayer for Texas, and ALL of the United States, and ALL of us, the American people, at this most perilous time.l

Another prayer...for me, and for those with ears to hear.

Father, may it be so, in Jesus' name, amen.

God bless you, and your family, and your household.

For those with ears to hear.

An acknowledgment that we ALL need God's mercy, and grace, and forgiveness. Father, we are flawed, and prone to wandering, and stumbling. Forgive us. Have mercy on us.

Father, may it be so, in Jesus' name, amen.

For those with ears to hear.

The battle is the Lord's. Praying for all those standing strong for our borders. May God extinguish all efforts to trample and abolish our rights, liberties, freedoms, our borders, and our sovereignty.

Father, may it be so, in Jesus' name, amen.

For those with ears to hear.

A grateful heart.

May God grant us a thankful and grateful heart.

It is written that God will chase us down (literally) with blessings when we heed Him and His Word, and delight to do His will with grateful hearts. It is also written that God delights in a giving and thankful heart.

Deuteronomy 28:2 and 2 Corinthians 9:6-8

Let-this-sink-in:

We can NOT out-give God.

Never forget. Never again.

Today, January 27th, is International Holocaust Memorial Day.

*remembering Sophie and Hans Scholl of The White Rose Society, the anti-Nazi movement, who gave their lives speaking up against the Nazi movement, and remembering ALL who gave their lives fighting the Nazi movement.*

Who is God?

For those with ears to hear.

The world is "starving" for kindness.

Let's all "Give A Little Love" wherever and whenever we can.

It's "contagious".

Kindness.

Random acts of kindness not only change the course of that recipients day, but also the givers of that kindness. It's like giving your own heart a hug.

"The best portion of a good man's life is his little, nameless, unremembered acts of kindness and love." -William Wordsworth

For those with ears to hear.

"...and all these blessings shall come on thee, and overtake thee, if thou shalt hearken unto the voice of the Lord thy God." Deuteronomy 28:2

The words in the bridge of the song below are straight from the above Bible verse: "Your goodness is running after me."

What it means is that God's blessings will "chase us down" and "overcome" us.

How utterly DELIGHTFUL is THAT??!!

Watching this, amidst grief and tears, and praying, in Jesus' name, amen.
