Iraq War enters fifth year
The war in Iraq has entered its fifth year with the U.S.-led forces battling a determined insurgency and hoping to quell rising sectarian violence. More than 20,000 U.S. troops are headed to the region to help implement a new security plan and reconstruction efforts. Meanwhile, the near-daily bombings and casualties are taking a toll on support for the war on the home front.

Matthew 24:6 And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet. 7 For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places. 8 All these are the beginning of sorrows.

These are a few news articles I pulled of the web, from this week alone. There are wars, droughts and other catastrophes going on. To fully understand what's going on read the rest of the book of Matthew.

2 Peter: 8 But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day. 9 The Lord is not slack concerning His promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. 10 But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up. 11 Seeing then that all these things shall be dissolved, what manner of persons ought ye to be in all holy conversation and godliness,

What can we trust in? Man amends his laws as needed but God's word, plan and way has not and will not change. Are you going to limit your salvation to the knowledge that you have? Or by what a preacher or a holy person said? My ways are limited to my few years of knowledge and experience. I trust in the Word and can only fully understand it by reading it for myself. It was the same word that the apostles took to the world and it was around before me and will be the same after I leave for the heavenly kingdom.
