"GOD'S GOT AN ARMY"

Sitting here in the computer room and wondering why I cannot sleep. It is now nearly 3 o'clock a.m. and I ask GOD to tell me what to write. I cannot think of anything. The world is in such a sad shape. There is fighting and killing all over. The wars in so many countries and the deaths of our boys and girls in foreign countries, is so sad and heart rending. The murders of all the little girls these past few months is so terrible. Why can't these guys just go away and leave these little girls alone and all the other little children that they so wickedly prey upon! Children haven't got a chance in this world unless we adults help them through life. And with these deviants and perverts all around it is so very dangerous for the little ones.

Sometimes it would have been best if they had never lived but I suppose GOD gave them life for a reason and HE also allowed it to be taken for a reason, unknown to us. HE has them with HIM and they will never have another hard or bitter trial in this life to contend with, and never have a hungry day or to do a battle against peer pressure of friend and foe. They will never have to know what it is like to have a loved one die before they do, or for a loved one to hurt them in a bad way and they will never have to deal with teenage woes and adult mishaps that all of us have to go through every day of our lives. They will never have to feel the hurt of losing a spouse or a child or a parent. They will never have to live through the pain of divorce or some dreaded disease taking hold of their bodies and killing them slowly til they wish they had never lived for the pain of it! They will never have to suffer the hardships of having no food or water or no clothing and no shelter for themselves. They will not have to contend with the everyday misdeeds of others towards them nor will they ever have to make decisions that may hurt another person that they love. Those who have gone on to be with their own eternity has it made. The battle here on earth is done. Be it for 100 years of life or 50 or 25 or 19 or 10 or 5 or a year or only a few minutes of life. Even if they were a miscarried before their birth, they will never have to suffer the pangs of hell upon earth and all of the worries that a human being has every day.

Sometimes it goes through my mind of how it would have been to have never been born or to have died when I was just a babe and directly went into the arms of JESUS! Oh what rapture and joy that would have been! But not to have known the love of my parents or spouse, or my children and all of my grandchildren, then what would it have been like. But of course you wouldn't miss the things that you never knew or had now would you? Only to have known the Creator and HIS Peace, Mercy, Joy, Love, and all of HIS Kindness and Patience; oh to only have known HIM and HIS GLORY in our Soul! Never to have known any evil or wicked or anything that would go against the total goodness of GOD! That would have been one really glorious existence!

No pain in body, no torture of Spirit and Soul! No sorrows or heart aches or tears to fall from the pains and trials of hurts in this life! That would have been the life I would have chosen for myself! Yes, GOD will have HIS number! It will be HIS will that shall be done in this earth or there will be hell to pay! For this earth is HIS abode, HIS temple, it is HIS body, HIS church, HIS people , that is who "the earth" is, that HE speaks of in HIS word.

So these little ones that are leaving us and more that shall for surety leave us in the future shall meet us, if we are GOD'S own children, and soon and very soon, we shall see the KING in all of HIS glory and shall meet HIM for the battle to end all battles! The earth's age ended and the new beginning of eternity for all ages and evermore! Amen, and amen, even so, come LORD, JESUS, for this is the will of GOD.
