I think He's trying to get my attention. I'm a doer but I need to get that the real work is done in prayer and without that prayer....the thing that needs to happen won't get done. Great and timely message for me...Thanks LauraNikki (Sarah)https://www.blogger.com/profile/13731200601840020130noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4314337119339520012.post-91941367349054376752012-11-09T17:38:48.541-05:002012-11-09T17:38:48.541-05:00I agree with all your points.

Her father was part of the Nixon administration among other things and after he left politics started orphanages and did other mission work in Romania with Ginny. She has traveled extensively with missions to places like China and Yemen. She has seen firsthand the effects of Islam and even risked smuggling Bibles into these countries, which if caught, would have meant her death. Here's a link to her book she published a couple of years ago. http://www.amazon.com/Finding-Freedom-White-House-World/dp/1936143097/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1352500066&sr=8-2&keywords=freedom+white+house Thanks for stopping by and sharing, Betty.

God is on His throne, but it chills me to think that His will for the church in America may be persecution and that America may be seeing the last days of its greatness.

For those of us who clung to 2 chron 7:14 in the days leading to the election, we can rest assured God answered our prayers...just not in the manner we wanted. <br /><br />But God is on His throne and there's still work to be done.<br /><br />God bless you!
