    There is a lot here in the prophet's writings that pertain to us and can help us in our present situation in our nation. Just this past month, we've had mass shootings. The last one in Texas has caused many to ask the same questions that Habakkuk asked.

    "O LORD, how long shall I cry, and THOU wilt not hear! Even cry out unto thee of violence, and THOU wilt not save!"

    We are surrounded by so many things; mass shootings, rising gas and oil prices, food shortages- milk formulas etc. Doesn't look good. Habakkuk was troubled that GOD was using a evil nation like the Babylonians to be HIS agent of judgement. The US could be in the same situation. However we need to be like Habakkuk and trust in the LORD. Remembering what GOD has done for us in the past and trust in HIS timing. Habakkuk waited to hear GOD'S answer in 2:1, because he knew GOD would do the right thing and will correct him in his thinking.

    May we humble ourselves and pray as HE wills us to do and trust in the LORD to have all things in control. 2 Chronicles 7: 14-16

    GOD bless all on this forum.

    May 30, 2022 GOD bless all who served in the armed forces this Memorial Day and their families.

    The USA has a corrupt Government like Jesus declared ancient Israel had. God warned the obedient Israelites to flee into the Mountains to escape the coming destruction. Only the ones who obeyed God's voice lived to tell the tale. I have asked God to avenge me of all Americans who support the corrupt Government in Washington, D.C. who are assaulting me with Havana Syndrome weapons.

    To John anonymous,

    Sorry to hear of your situation regarding the "Havana Syndrome." From what I could find in my research, only those in the diplomatic office and their families were subject to this illness.

    I will pray for all involved and quick healing by the Hand of GOD. The LORD promises to avenge, but we must first forgive. May the LORD give you peace and comfort.

    GOD to shine HIS face on you and give you peace. The LORD bless you and keep you and your family safe.
