Thank God for the Living

About a month ago, I took down a blog on which I made comments on local problems in my community, mostly concerning the local government that had forsaken the poor. I was prompted by the Lord, after much negative reaction to the blog within family members, to take it down. I felt the Lord had given me a pronouncement of three woes to come to Marion, Indiana.

I still believe this prophecy stands.

The Lord assured me the local government had made its choice concerning my word. They will not repent. So be it.

A few days ago, I went to a civic event in which the Mayor presided over. As I looked at this man I thought of how often I tried to warn him concerning the direction which he was taking the city. All I could feel as I looked at him was sadness for his total blindness to reality, and the bankruptcy of his spirit. His eyes were dead and his smile was practiced.

How different the living are. Living people hear the word, and obey. Thank God!

Selah.

Yet even in the destruction that shall befall this city, God desires mercy for this land. Will this land repent to His word? Probably not. Would He turn to them in his mercy and grace if they did. YES!
