Thank you for this message, Pastor Deb. I really need this reminder of who I am, too, and I have friends who don’t like how this evil is changing us. Again, thank you.

Julie, Child of God.

P. S. What do I do with the question, if I am a child of God and accept that every other person is, too, how do I reconcile the evil that is happening at the hands of these people? The anger I feel toward them is so deep you could almost say I hate them. And that just isn’t me.

Thank you for providing this space today for me to express this. The passage from Philippians provides help for me. 🙏

Deb, thank you for this. I needed it. I feel like you described - not eating right, not exercising as I should. And, when I realize what is happening around me, I find myself thinking that I am glad that I am as old as I am. I won't have to live through much of it. But, then I think of my children, my grandchildren and my great grandchildren. It makes me so sad and so very angry. My prayers are the same every night, asking God to please help us, please change what is happening.
