A So He Can Hear Every Last Little Sound


There are times when the trials of this earthly life
can cause our strength to be worn out & depleted.
So we come to the Father in our time of weakness
-crying out for the things that we needed.
And we realize the full value of the promises of God
are in the Author who caused them to be.
For it's His presence we treasure in our hour of darkness
for the answers we can't even see.
It's adversity & suffering which humble to bring us
to a new level of dependence on Him.
For our childlike desperation creates an intimate walk
and a closeness as each day begins.
And when all of our resources are used up & gone
so we come to the King truly dry,
We realize He allows some situations to happen
to draw our hearts to His endless supply.
He takes the frailties of this life to somehow make us notice
how fading and fleeting it can be.
Then the eternal things we couldn't focus on before
become the things that we most clearly see.
And when our heartache wakes us up at the midnight hour
yet we worship Him with no one around.
Our Father lifts His hand to silence all the angels
....so He can hear every last little sound.

Sheila Gosney

Then the multitude rose up together against them; and the
magistrates tore off their clothes and commanded them to be
beaten with rods. And when they had laid many stripes on them,
they threw them into prison, commanding the jailer to keep them
securely. Having received such a charge, he put them into the
inner prison and fastened their feet in the stocks.
But at midnight Paul and Silas were praying and singing hymns
to God, and the prisoners were listening to them. Suddenly
there was a great earthquake, so that all the foundations of the
prison were shaken; and immediately all the doors were opened
and everyone's chains were loosed.
Acts 16:22-26 NKJV
Read Chapter 16 for the incredible rest of the story.

Israel haters celebrate Democrat gains

Arab citizens of Israel and their "Palestinian" cousins expressed pleasure
at the blow America's voters delivered to President George W. Bush November
8, when Democrats became the majority party in the House of Representatives.

Arab Knesset member Ahmed Tibi, a senior advisor to the late terror
chieftain, Yasser Arafat, and an avowed enemy of the Jewish state in which
he enjoys all the privileges of citizen and lawmaker, made no bones about
his feelings.

"Bush's policies are anti-Arab, anti-Islamic and anti-Palestinian and
encourage terror around the world and the way the neo-conservatives related
to the Arab world was outrageous and humiliating, so I am happy to see [the
Republicans] lose the election," Tibi told The Jerusalem Post.

On November 2, World Net Daily (WND) quoted a senior member of PA chairman
Mahmoud Abbas' Al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades as saying that "of course Americans
should vote Democrat."

Jihad Jaara, one of the terrorists who laid siege to Bethlehem's Church of
the Nativity said American Muslims would support the Democrats "because
there is an atmosphere in America that encourages those who want to withdraw
from Iraq. It is time that the American people support those who want to
take them out of this Iraqi mud."

WND's Jerusalem bureau chief, Aaron Klein, said that the Palestinian killers
he interviewed "rejected statements from some prominent Democrats in the
U.S. that a withdrawal from Iraq would end the insurgency, explaining an
evacuation would prove resistance works and would compel jihadists to
continue fighting until America is destroyed."

They told Klein a Democrat electoral win would prove to them that Americans
are "tired" of fighting the war on terror.

Newly elected Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi and Senator Hillary Clinton
were among the many liberals who hailed Rumsfeld¹s departure as opening the
way for a "change of course in Iraq."

For Muslims, such a change in the prosecution of the post-war situation in
Iraq promises progress towards self-inflicted defeat for the United States.
