The threat of chaos and disaster is looming over our heads, especially when we have world leaders who are warmongers. <br /><br /><br />Debrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02273349436461781371noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6392676309476353391.post-89859659470191757752019-01-07T17:32:21.065-08:002019-01-07T17:32:21.065-08:00I’m looking forward to your post tomorrow.

I’m not sure what my word is for this year yet but a few short years ago my phrase was “press in.” Which is akin to “lean.” I’m with you: solitude and quiet mean the difference between hearing from God and hearing the shouting matches “out there.” I wish you the same, Martha: you have a blessed new year, my friend. <br /><br /><br />Debrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02273349436461781371noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6392676309476353391.post-50363496475838880972019-01-07T17:24:12.049-08:002019-01-07T17:24:12.049-08:00Michael, you are not only a poet but a philosopher...Michael, you are not only a poet but a philosopher. This is quote-worthy: “The head can be swayed, but a secure heart cannot be moved.” Can I quote you on that? And yes, deceivers are profuse. Hoping this 2019 will find you fruitful in all things. <br /><br /><br />Debrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02273349436461781371noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6392676309476353391.post-35242062360919136652019-01-07T16:36:51.078-08:002019-01-07T16:36:51.078-08:00Indeed, post apocalyptic movies are on the rise.

The reason, methinks, is that people everywhere feel we're going to face chaos and disaster.<br /><br />Anyway, Bird Box, and Quiet Place , sound like great thrillers.DUTAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12979375799258978432noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6392676309476353391.post-580652527370626582019-01-07T16:30:43.807-08:002019-01-07T16:30:43.807-08:00Debra, such powerful and provoking questions you&#...Debra, such powerful and provoking questions you've been pondering, and now ask us here. The older I get (that's a good and bad thing), the more I realize how much I need quiet solitude with God. I need to hear His still small voice quelling the onslaught of the persistent dragon and his flood of lies and deceit. My word for the year is "lean." The Lord has shown me, truly over the past months, how much I absolutely need to lean into Him, and trust, even when all about me seem to be losing their heads. I'll be posting about that tomorrow, so hope to see you there!<br />Happy and Blessed New Year, my friend!Martha Jane Orlandohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11620499267401065780noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6392676309476353391.post-71115375715810909362019-01-07T16:13:56.407-08:002019-01-07T16:13:56.407-08:00There are numerous passages, pertaining to deceive...There are numerous passages, pertaining to deceivers, those who would deceive even the elect.
