No question about it, this world is a mess, but He is in the midst of it and if we can hold on to His grace and mercy, we can get through our daily living. I fear that America is changed forever, but His faithfulness to those who believe in Him will never change! We'll take it one day at a time ... together!Pam Kohlerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00678673505358164380noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-367019700923216960.post-35757001349599931372012-12-05T07:32:31.095-06:002012-12-05T07:32:31.095-06:00I know there are days it doesn't feel like we ...I know there are days it doesn't feel like we have much to hope for, but I really want people to realize that we are citizens of heaven and this world is temporary. That doesn't mean we get to escape what goes on here, and we shouldn't do our best to make it as good as we can --- I simply want us to focus on what God would have us hear and know and see during this time. He will help us through these difficult times and we need to be aware of what is happening around us and what is coming in the future, while always keeping our hearts and minds and souls focused on Him. He is worthy of our attention and when we seek Him, the rest of this mess called "life" gets put in perspective.Pam Kohlerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00678673505358164380noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-367019700923216960.post-90661951276547256902012-12-04T22:15:58.034-06:002012-12-04T22:15:58.034-06:002 Corinthians 4:16, "Therefore we do not lose...2 Corinthians 4:16, "Therefore we do not lose hope".<br />I am a recent discoverer of your blog. I like the fact that your thoughts are an extension of the quoted Scripture verse. I have become a daily follower for the reason that your writing gives hope in the face of dispare. Most prep blogs do a great service to help us prepare for a difficult time to come. But let's face it, its a heavy weight on the spirit.<br />So I join the others to encourage you to keep sharing the Word of God and how it applies to our living in the face of adversity.<br />I live in a major metropolitan area so I need hope.<br /><br />City DudeAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-367019700923216960.post-86059638514441622282012-12-04T22:00:22.432-06:002012-12-04T22:00:22.432-06:00Yep,,, its been a long 365 days..

You've learned at the feet of people who appreciate what real learning is all about and I'm sure they taught you to think for yourself, instead of mindlessly following some intellectual who has never experienced life outside academia. Your opinion matters just as much as theirs. And I have found your comments to be sincere and honest, and an inspiration to me. Both our dads were in the Navy, and I think they'd be proud of our commitment.

So please know that I appreciate your heartfelt words, and hang on to the fact that there are millions of like-minded Christians who are true believers throughout the world, and we are all united through the Holy Spirit.

You seem to know my heart and we've never met! I always look forward to hearing about your world and knowing that you're "in the fight" with me. Thank you for all that I know you're doing to advance the Kingdom, and if we don't get to meet in this world, I can't wait to greet you in the next!

And you should know that you have inspired me from the day we met, nearly 18 years ago. Can you believe it?!?! I know I'm not the best writer out there, but God has put it on my heart to use what talent He has given me to reach out to fellow Christians and to spread His Gospel to those who need to hear His Word. Believe me, there are days I feel I've let Him and you down, but I'm going to keep going until He tells me to stop.

You are a voice of reason, but not panic, over the situation in our beloved country. You share hope and knowledge and we all find ourselves needing that in these, oh so trying times. <br />You have a book ready for the printer. 365 Days of Hope and Reason. <br />Love you,<br />Charlinecharhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15459013897649476930noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-367019700923216960.post-18616402588463863362012-12-04T11:46:10.220-06:002012-12-04T11:46:10.220-06:00Belle,

You can find a lot out there about prepping, etc., but you can't find someone with your heart who loves Christ and shares the gospel with others and shares your feelings and thoughts and also give the truth on the Bibical side of prepping and the world in which we live today. I would certainly hope that you wouldn't stop with the blog! It's the first thing I do when I come in from chores in the morning and look forward to what you're posting. I think your blog is great and you touch on so many subjects that matter to many of us and all of it is important too. Thanks as always for your hard work and beautiful spirit and kindness and for bringing so much to the front that we need to stay on top of and for trying to keep the "flock" together.<br /><br />Your friend,<br />LisaLisanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-367019700923216960.post-80587223687744640112012-12-04T11:26:02.984-06:002012-12-04T11:26:02.984-06:00Congratulation on your first year.

You have educated and inspired me and sometimes left me crying. Knowing there are other like mined Christians out there is a blessing.<br />Keep up the good work. I will keep you and your PLW in my prayers.<br /><br />JMAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-367019700923216960.post-3877375030364768742012-12-04T08:05:49.721-06:002012-12-04T08:05:49.721-06:00It's a great blog spot.
