~~~ Shock and Awe ~~
Please tell me how to stop these tears
That are streaming down my cheeks.
My heart is hurting and I feel so sad
For the lack of peace we had, seek.
Perhaps in another time or place,
We shall feel these pains no more.
There will only be calm and justice,
Without constant fear of war.
For those, like me, who are burdened
At the "Shock and Awe" of today,
We have only to solemnly bow our heads,
With weak voices, to join and pray ...
For men and women who've been sent away
And may never, again, return;
Their families, forever, left grieving
While the world continues to burn.
For, this is a mere beginning of time
When evil is lurking in wait,
Until this campaign is finished;
To begin, yet, another slate.

Jesus said, Do not let your hearts be troubled... see I have warned you ahead of time...
I stand at the door of your heart and knock.
You see, Jesus has made the first move, the rest is up to us.
If we accept Jesus according to God's Holy Word, He promises to help us through our troubles now
He promises to always be there for us and to intercede all our prayers to our Father in Heaven
He confirms that a room will be prepared for us in our Father's House
And when it is our time to go, we will not be judged, our sins are already forgotten
and we will be rewarded according to what we have done for God in our lives on earth right now
We will go to a place Jesus describes as nothing less than Paradise
where there will be no more crying, no more weeping, no more pain and no more suffering
But, only if we are baptised, born again and have received the Holy Ghost
Only when we come to the Father through Jesus
We are told to expect, particularly in the 'end times'
that there will be trouble in this world. We are also told specifically what will happen
Jesus tells us, there will be wars and rumours of wars, earth quakes, an increase in pestilences
Man will go with man and woman with woman and they will be repaid in their own kind
We are told in these times 'men's hearts will harden!' How true this is!!!
Read God's Word and heed the warnings which are clearer today then ever before
But do not let them burden you, Jesus wants to help you. He wants to Save You
Remember No One comes to the Father except through the Son
Accept Jesus into your life today, come to the Father through Him
Providing we say with our lips and meaning in the heart that we accept Jesus is God's one and only Son
and that he was crucified for our sins and on the third day rose again in accordance with scripture
Providing we say with our lips and mean in our heart that we truly repent of all our sins
and give our lives back to God through Him. We will be Born Again.
Providing we are also baptised and have received the Holy Ghost
We will receive everything God has Promised for us.
It really is that simple
If we don't, we have no one to blame but ourselves!
Jesus stands at the door of every heart and knocks
He will not force himself upon us, he knocks and waits!
Have you been baptised?
Have you received the Holy Ghost?
Have you verbally confessed your sins and beliefs to God through Jesus?
According to His Holy Word
Salvation is a FREE Gift from God, it is line to a sinking soul
Salvation can only come from God through Jesus
There is no other way God's Word confirms this for us all
He who waits not only missings out on the Grace, the Love, the Peace and much more
He who waits usually dies to soon
