Our world and society has become so jaded with everything available at the push of a button that people's attitude towards wars and rumors of wars has become "I'm sick of it", bored with it. People are being mistreated, tortured and killed and 'you don't care?' Your, "sick of it all".

I get it, for most of us it isn't in our backyard, it's a world away and we keep hearing about it all and the arguments and one lot supporting action and another lot anti-war and anti-action, we are tired of all the arguments, arm chair critics and stress from it all and having to pay more for everything because the prices of things have gone up, because the price of petrol has risen, which is the one way it is effecting us all.

Most just don't understand what is happening they are used to instant results....well guess what back in history siege's used to take YEARS! An army would surround a fortified city and stop anyone going in or out, cutting off any food supplies etc....if the city didn't have an internal water source it was usually a short siege....if they did, it would last for years as those in the city slowly ate through their food reserves and then slowly starved to death. The hard bit for the besiegers was keeping the army outside supplied long enough to starve them out, and handling unrest within the ranks stuck in the besieging force. The USA is currently using a modern version of a siege, against the IRGC in Iran. The naval blockade is economically starving the IRGC, and....it's working but most of the main stream media don't seem to understand the tactics and think the USA are losing, they are NOT losing! But it's slow and people today are not used to these sort of tactics and not used to not having instant or near instant results. It's quite a smart tactic but a modern leader has to be brave to use it.

In Christian circles what is going on in the Middle East, triggering global unrest is leading to all sorts of queries surrounding the end times and questions the equivalent of "are we there yet? - Is Jesus return imminent? The answer is, - we ARE in the END TIMES. If you look at the state of society world-wide that's clearly obvious. If you read scripture properly then he is most likely to return on the Feast of Trumpets but what year? - No one knows and what hour? Only God knows! Throughout Church history, people have foolishly tried to predict the exact date of Christ's return, I am certainly NOT going to do so. Besides it is NOT the point, the point is we pray the Lord's prayer here nearly every day and in that is the term "Thy Kingdom Come". Jesus preached the kingdom of God is here!

You are not meant to wait till heaven to get all the good things in life or to be blessed and healthy, God is the God of the living, you are meant to live in it NOW and help others to do so also. Don't let the wars and rumors of Wars depress you, don't give in to apathy, keep praying and everyday make your own kingdom a little better, healthier and stronger by surrendering it to Jesus and letting him reign in your life!
