Happy 2016 !!!!! I can't believe we are still here. Hey ho - I've cried my tears as I'm sure you all have. I am in mourning - for the world - the delayed arrival of our beloved LORD. WHEN ????? How much more ??? I am stamping my foot in temper as I type !!  I am terribly homesick - for a world without evil - for a place that offers love and comfort. Where learning and loving are the order of the day. I am SICK TO DEATH of all the garbage news out of the Middle East. The craven blandness and shallowness of our leaders. The brazen destruction of our planet earth through oil spills etc. The increasing creep of military into our every day lives.

Perhaps I am over sensitive but I do take offence to people who address Jewish people as "political Zionists" as if it were a dirty word. Like Israel has been occupied by fakes and murderers !  Of all places, Israel is sacrosanct to the LORD. I am sick of the Jew bashing. God Almighty is in control of everything. The Jewish people are where they are meant to be. In the Holy Land. They have suffered and will suffer SO much more - for the sake of the inclusion of the church. They have been blinded - for the sake of the church. NO- they are not perfect. There are bad people in every race. Do yourselves a favour - NEVER bash Israel and her people. They are our prophecy depot. As imperfect as we all are - they Are THE CHOSEN RACE.  Chosen to be an example of what the consequences are of disobeying and not trusting the LORD. Can you imagine the awfulness that they have been through? To add to the Jew bashing by highlighting the power some Jewish people have in Hollywood and the media - is boringly predictable. Get over it. "To Whom much is Given - Much will be expected". Be thankful you are just expected to believe and therefore, saved. The Jewish people have no such luxury. Blinded and politically manipulated. We have everything, in comparison.

I grew up in a war torn country. The relief to arrive in the UK was incredible (years and years ago and my ancestors are British) The anguish, fear and tension has NEVER let up for the Jewish people. They are incredibly resilient. Stubborn and strong. No wonder GOD ALMIGHTY chose them.

Let's not try to be clever and join in blaming the Jews - where the obvious flipping problem lies elsewhere.

Luis Vega - take note.

God Bless
