6,000 Christians Killed in One Year!

Be AWARE! 

First, the U.S. Severe Weather crisis in CA and Southeast brings a reminder to be a ReadyChristian to face emergencies whether natural or manmade crisis. In addition, extremists attack a church service on Christmas Day in Nigeria. News reports are lacking and news is slowly, if at all, released of these attacks. In fact, over 6000 Christians were killed in one Nigerian province in one year! Are Churches being blinded by the signs of the times? Meanwhile, House Democrats oppose addressing increased attacks on churches. New study shows COVID-19 increased trend of religious decline. Faith Organizations exploited by cartels to facilitate the illegal fentanyl border crisis.

SCHOOLS

Having a plan at the school your loved ones attend, or perhaps a school you work at is of paramount importance in today’s society. Responsive plans alone are not adequate. The CPPS Safe Schools Program is a tiered PROACTIVE approach in use at many learning facilities around the country. It arms the students, parents/guardians, teachers, and the administrators with knowledge of what to look for and when to report something that is suspicious. You just add the names of whom to report the incident to! This holistic approach will help to ease tensions, relax students and faculty, which will then facilitate more learning.

Let’s PRAY!

“Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.”

Matthew 11:28-30

God our Creator, Author and Finisher of our souls, this passage is so encouraging after long, hard days seeing what seems like the enemy gaining and us losing ground as we battle for Your Kingdom to advance in our appointed days.  Yet, here we lay it down and trust the rest, the learning we need from you.  In the world, being gentle is not usually a compliment, but here we see Jesus is gentle and we rejoice in the beauty of such—not having to perform and produce, but serve through Your attributes.  Yes, Your yoke is easy —the world is a task master and You are not, giving our souls the replenishment, refreshment needed to simply abide in You, our Messiah, Advocate.  AMEN
