Me too!  I am a "widow in Israel", I thought to myself this morning, for I have no men in my family who are believers, neither father, nor husband, nor son.
Only a little boy of seven who says he believes, but he is not yet a man.  My husband, who was a believer, died January 6, 2009, Epiphany, and I like to think of him having the epiphany of the Lord that day. (the Great Appearing).

I pray for your husband, Jane, and I pray for your daughter, Robert, to receive the Holy Spirit in power and glory so that suddenly they accept the Lord.

I know there are others who need a prayer for their unbelieving relatives, so together let's pray for all of those.  

My son is one of those who ridicules Christians, who goes so far as to claim that there are more mosques burned by Christians than churches burned by Muslims.

Life becomes very weary when one is cut off from family belief in this way.  I hope Jean S. is right, and the 70th week of Daniel begins this weekend, Nissan 9 and 10,
commemorating the entrance of Jesus into Jerusalem, the time the Jews should have accepted Christ, but because they did not, then the last week could not yet
occur.  Let their week begin, oh Lord, and let us and our families come home to you, on, as Jean says "a day they thought not."
