Dear friends,
As the world of Babylon collapses and our security and freedoms disappear, as we wonder if we will be able to keep any money, keep our homes and even have food to eat in the near future, one outstanding truth remains sure and unchanging: God’s love. He told us these world and national disasters were coming and how to escape them. He also has always told us that our dedication to him must be with ALL OF OUR HEART, MIGHT, MIND AND STRENGTH. Zion will not become a reality for us by any less measure of personal dedication.
If you exhibit this level of dedication or obsession in any endeavor, a local Missourian is likely to tell you ”You’re ate up!” That’s a compliment, not a criticism. Any time the Lord gives you a task or responsibility, you can be sure that he has given you the authority to do it and has prepared the way for its accomplishment — even though it may tax and try you to the limit of your capacities…and beyond. As Harry Truman said, “Keep working on a plan. Make no little plans. Make the biggest one you can think of, and spend the rest of your life carrying it out.” With or without friends to work with in these plans, you must run with your responsibilities. Fortunately, you have friends to uphold you and share the vision, the work and its satisfaction.
