As America falls apart at the seams I feel a need to pray for all American Christians.
I pray that God guides us through this evil time, and that His Hand remains upon us, especially now when we need it most.
I pray that our thoughts remain firmly fixed on God and His perfect Will, and that our actions reflect Him and that Will, whatever that may be.
I pray also we are given the peace that only comes from God, and that we don't fall to deception, in the land of the intentionally deceitful.
For me personally- I feel like I'm grasping for a peace that's just out of reach, and I want to lock my doors and just let the world destroy itself, but I don't think- think being the operative word - that that's what I should do if I'm keeping God the foremost thing in my mind.
Until yesterday I felt like there was still some hope here in America that we could turn it all around, but now I know it's gone for good. There's no saving this anymore, the ship is well and truly sunk.
I'm a mixture of emotions, and don't feel centered on God. I need to recenter on Him, and I think we all do.
For the very first time I saw people holding "the end is near" signs along with a laundry list of people at risk of judgement if they don't meet up with Jesus in my town - something I've NEVER seen here before what with there being a church on every street corner. (There's a LOT of churches here where I live).
This leads me to believe that I'm not alone, and that all of us need prayers, because in this environment people feel like they have to do something, I just want to know that something is God's will for us.
Please pray with me.
