Hello sweet doves, and all who are reading this. How can I begin to tell you all this - where do I start?I believe that most of you have heard that coincidence is not a kosher word....I am at a loss as to how to relate the following, but I will certainly try.Wednesday AM - just after midnight, I was in the kitchen (at my Mother's triplex rental) when a very loud noise was heard & my Mother & I wondered what it was. I walked out of the house, down the driveway (but not far enough). If I had walked just a little bit further (10 more feet to the sidewalk), I would have seen a grizzly sight. About 10 minutes later we heard the sirens....A motorcyclist had been drinking at a bar down the road and being twice over the legal intoxication limit (.18%) struck a skateboarder before smashing into the streetsign, then into the fence....the bike then smashed into the triplex, breaking my Mother's co-tenant's kitchen window. My sister was sleeping in her (covered) truck just behind where the accident happened - he just missed hitting her by only about 10 feet! The skateboarder (20 years old) survived, but is in an induced coma. We're told this was done in order to secure a possible full recovery - outlook has been updated - he'll recover and is out of critical danger. The motorcyclist was airlifted out and his condition is worse (many broken bones, including a broken neck, torn aortic artery, etc). Here is a picture of my Mother's yellow triplex along with an early article that doesn't give all known details yet; http://esteybomberger.com/blog/2009/05/28/skateboarder-and-motorcyclist-both-critically-injured-early-wednesday-in-sonoma-crash/This is a dated google picture of the triplex....the left side of the fence is down now, along with the street sign and several feet of concrete came up with the base of the sign. My sister was parked in front to the right of the red curb. There is a fox that lives/hides out on the property. My sister told me that the fox was out on the sidewalk licking up the blood before the sun rose. The driveway is to the right of the triplex but hard to see in this picture.OK, so then....what happens on the very same day (it's dark outside again, but only it's 9pm, in the next county over - just down the street, literally around the corner from where I used to live)? Another drunken motorcyclist hits a father and daughter walking through a crosswalk (9 years old), kills the little girl and the father is critical. Currently, he's had to have one leg amputated & doctors are trying to save his other one. The little girl was airlifted out, but died 9 hours later in an emergency room in Oakland, CA. Note there are 3 9's here.Both motorcycles were headed "eastbound".The place that I lived at, near where the little girl was killed, has special significance to me. Being a Navy brat, I've moved more times than your average citizen and in my adult years, this pattern repeated itself. More than any place I've ever lived - by far - this house was closer to heaven than any other place I've ever lived - in the way that I was treated, the fun I had, the acceptance - I guess in every way that I can think of, it was the best and easiest time of my life. (I was 13!!) Who can say that - at 13 - they had it the easiest then?I can only say, I was placed in a permanent foster home. Though there's quite an unusual story to that, I will only keep on with what's relevant to this coincidence. That little girl is in heaven now - Amen!? When I was 9 years old, my father bought a motorcycle. He had had it for a few months. Not once did I ask him for a ride - but one day I did and I remember him saying clearly, "Not this time, some other day". A drunk driver had run into & over him only about 10 minutes later - things were never the same after that.My Mother's house on the other hand, where I am staying temporarily (before a scheduled surgery) is quite different. Think "den of contention" and "idols galore". Though I cannot speak outright about certain things, I will only say that I am under deliberate attack (not by my Mother) and it is so evil I choose not to relay any part of it other than that I am being slandered, falsely accused and may be sleeping in my car soon if the attack continues. One of my sisters, a young Christian, sees the attack (without having been present) and speaks some sense into me to leave (though there was resistance & obstacles - making even this quite difficult). This may be one of the worst living experiences I've ever had. I believe that our accuser is upset about my time spent in the Word of God and in prayer and study - it's been very intense!The proximity of these two accidents is no coincidence; I'm being told something and I'm going to try to explain how I know this as best as I can. Being one of those people that can't remember their dreams, I've had several lately. There were, of course, rare and few times in my life that I DID remember dreams and as is reportedly common, I remembered them after life changing occurences. Nothing substantial has been going on, with the exception of the realization of the nearness of our Lord Jesus' coming for us at rapture.All I remember about the last dream (middle of this month - after the 11th) is simply this....A tremendously ugly, horrible faced demon was sitting in a chair about 10 feet in front of me, a little to the left. The chair was faced sideways to me and so the demon had his head turned to the right a little just staring at me, hissing or something to that effect - he wasn't just staring, he was so very evil-y ugly. In this dream I kept repeating, "every knee shall bow and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord". And I was forceful and bold - no fear. Though there are many scriptures I could have thrown out in this spiritual battle, I could only say this - over & over. I was getting irritated in this dream because the demon wasn't moving, it just kept sitting there, hating me with its evil face. I have battled in the spirit before, so I know that there are other things that could have been said in order to battle more effectively....the dream began & ended exactly the same, I said the same thing over & over and it just ended with me remembering that I was getting irritated, because this demon should leave and not just sit there as if it were mocking me - which it wasn't. What was very clear though, was that this demon was contained and definately unable to harm me.The evil in our day is so very pervasive, I'm sure that's clear to everyone. But, here's a different perspective to the same dilemma. We have been conditioned - even more than I'm sure any of us would propose, or volunteer to admit. I say this only because I know something about the science of the brain. Rather than get technical about the workings of the human brain, I guess what would be best is an example.Ever hear of someone going years without watching a stitch of television? I did this for around 4 years (many years ago in my early Christian walk). I moved in with 2 roommates who were not Christian, though this was not ideal, it seemed my only option at the time and I believe that true seeds were sown. They liked to watch Cheers and so I started watching it with them along with a few other programs they flipped to. It was around this time that MTV started, & those cheezy soft-porn aerobics were everywhere! I was shocked - even the commercials were different from the years before (deodorant commercials with half or nearly naked bodies), so much was different - sex was being pushed full throttle! My roommates didn't notice a change, but they listened to my perspective. The TV stations are owned & controlled by ???? shall I say it? Even the ones that we think are OK....the enemy can deceive by presenting parts of the truth along with his twisted lies. His minions & puppets are told to fight amongst themselves - so that if one party seems so incredibly wrong, the other party must be right, even one that professes to be Christian. When I say party, I'm not just alluding to the political spectrum! Where there is confusion, there is every evil thing - these days politics - well, how else can I say this - it's all vanity, there is nothing good about the process. I guess anyone that doesn't know the true Word of God and what He has to say to us in this dispensation could easily fall for the lie that there is an integrous party to fight for - and not realize that the WHOLE of the entertainment & news media along with every high political thing is corrupt at its core. Those of us that are keeping up with current events know that there are few exceptions...but these havens of truth & refuge from a backwards world will soon be "shut down" or "taken out".After reading this over, I'm not sure I've been able to explain how I see the intensity and urgency of the days in which we live. I've been shaken & stirred lately. Many Doves mentioned that they were attacked earlier this month (on the 11th). Same thing here, but I didn't get a chance to write in about it - I had a headache so bad that it felt like vice grips were all over my face, not just my head....I actually cried it hurt so bad and I couldn't stand it! Thankfully my sister came home & helped - I get and have had a lot of headaches, migraines even. This one was different, just like I describe above. Plus, I see 1:11, 11:11, 10:11 all of the time - sometimes many times on the same day. I can't just come right out & tell you all what I think this last Wednesday was about....but I CAN tell you that things are going to be changing quickly. Lot was vexed with all of the sin around him, are we not vexed? How much more is the Lord ready to judge? May we all - all Doves - and all of our brothers and sisters in Christ reading this or not, be found ready and worthy to escape the coming chaos. Even so, come quickly Lord Jesus!YSIC,AR
