Inside the Revolution

I read Joel Rosenberg's "Inside the Revolution" today. Awesome book! He really has his heart right when it comes to the peoples of the Middle East. I'm glad I read it because too often I focus on the Jihadists and though I don't quite forget that most of the Muslims in the Middle East are not violent, yet I've kind of been blaming them for not standing up to the evil in their midst. I pray regularly for my brothers and sisters in Christ who are persecuted for believing, and have forgotten that it is their joy to stay and stand and share with their enemies.

G-d forgive me for this oversite! I do try to remember that we don't fight against flesh and blood, but sometimes I feel really angry at what the Jihadists are doing, bringing such evil into the earth--but even their evil is being turned to good. The Lord has used their evil to turn many hearts toward Himself and what a wonder that is to me!

I've been praying that my light will shine brightly in this dark world. That I will be allowed to share the Love that Messiah has shared with me. And it's not that I doubt Him, but I do find myself doubting myself quite regularly.

Well, even if I am only a little light, yet at least a little is better than none, and perhaps that little can be used by G-d to bless others.
