just heard it on the news this morning, too, Prayer changes things, I believe all the prayers going up from the people of Hong Kong and from all over the world was a sweet savor to God. Giving thanks and will continue to pray for their other requests. Thank you for sharing. Sue
And when China moves in and imposes its will, as it certainly will, what will you say about God then? What do you say to the people of Bermuda, some of whom no doubt prayed? What do you say to the victims in El Paso, Dayton and to the mothers and fathers of little children in Sandy Hook?
Fair questions, David. But I do not have an answer for why bad things happen. There is evil in our world. I do not know why God allows things like this to happen. I do not understand it myself. But I do believe He is real and that He loves us...you too. I can't explain that either. To the mothers and fathers of Sandy Hook, what could I possibly say? Nothing except that my heart is broken too.
I agree that prayer changes things. God is real, His ways are bigger than our ways and He knows the whole picture, we don't. I have to hang on to that sometimes.
Just to let you know, per your request, I just published a post containing the full article I spoke about in my last blog post called "Just Before Jesus Returns."

DeleteSuch great news!!!

What does this mean exactly?

DeletePrayer is always the first thing to do!!
ReplyDeleteYES!
DeletePraise the LORD!
ReplyDeleteWe can only hope the world is waking up!
ReplyDeleteChina blinked, for now.
ReplyDeleteI hope things are changing for China, for the better.
DeleteOh, Sandi I always hope that the world wakes up!
ReplyDeleteLet's pray to HIm about this!

ReplyDeleteReally?! That's wonderful news! The media shares zero on this. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteOur media is oddly silent. Hmm.

ReplyDeleteThere is much in this world that is far from perfect, but this was good news.
ReplyDeleteAll the best Jan
Sooner or later Hong Kong will have to come under China after the 50 years is up. Only God knows what will be in the future. We can only pray.
ReplyDeleteChina will be very different by then.
DeletePraying for the people of Hong Kong. May God continue to intervene on their behalf.
ReplyDeleteGood news!
