  1. I read 1 Maccabees Chapters 15 and 16 this morning. 15:1 Moreover Antiochus son of Demetrius the king sent letters from the isles of the sea unto Simon the priest and prince of the Jews, and to all the people. Demetrius made a treaty with Simon.
    Later the treaty was broken by the king. Simon put his sons Judas and John in charge of the military and retired. They won the battles and drove their enemies out.
    Ptolemeus the son of Abubus made captain, and he had abundance of silver and gold: For he was the high priest’s son in law. He killed Simon and his two sons Mattathias and Judas so he could turn the land and the temple over to the king. Ptolemeus intended to kill John also. John killed Ptolemeus instead. John became the High Priest and Prince of the Jews.
    What I understood from reading this is that enemies and friends betrayed Simon and his sons and were willing to betray all of Israel for money and power. It sounds exactly like what is happening today.
    We cannot tell who to trust these days. We must watch and wait and stay in constant prayer.

    1. You nailed it! I have been wrestling with a few things that has created a fire of self-righteous indignation and today I am at peace with it. But, it wasn’t an easy thing to surrender to. The Lord showed me… he is using the thing for his purpose and to watch and observe. Not to do nothing… for watching and observing is what always must be done first. God sees all and all things work according to his purpose. Pray unceasing.

      1. I am tempted to take action sometimes and do not wait on the Lord. It is so much better when we watch and pray and act in His timing with His words. Waiting on the Lord is not a passive task. It is dynamic. I feel an amazing amount of energy in that process. He knows everyone and everything involved. My prayers actually help the process of bringing things together. I have never really been able to explain it but when you said today you are at peace with the process, that is part of what our prayers do. In the midst of chaos, we create a calm place in the storm so that when God directs our actions we are able to hear Him and act in perfect peace. We do not contribute to the chaos.
        Mark 4:39 KJV
        39 And he arose, and rebuked the wind, and said unto the sea, Peace, be still. And the wind ceased, and there was a great calm.

        1. That was so perfectly worded. And beautiful I screenshot your reply to my daughter. I pray she will find that calm in the storm also. Thank you for your words. God bless you

  2. Tomorrow is the role out of 5g ~ If they aren’t able to stop it. If 5g and the vax were designed to work in tandem then tomorrow could prove to be … horrifying.
