Are we living in the end times? Is Armageddon upon us? If God's two witnesses came proclaiming the message that we were in the final seven years of our present day world, would anyone listen?

Are Christians being given the full message of the Gospel? Or are the Clergy choosing to keep some information to itself? Is the church in a huge cover up because they are so involved with building bigger churches and directing more people to their television ministries? Has money become the bottom line and teaching people how to hear from God the last thing on their agenda?

I am an author of a Christian book.

Why do people think that God is allusive? Why do people think He's never there when you need Him most? Why are people constantly complaining that He doesn't hear me when I pray anymore! How can I find God? Where did God go?

Our world is constantly under conflicts with wars here and rumors of wars there. Terror comes quickly when bills can't be paid.

Looking at the complexities of our world is to be totally amazed. From the way our world is balanced with just the right amount of natural wonders to the array of wildlife and the positioning of each and every country in our expansive world.

The stars and the moon light up our planet at night and the sun brings rays of light into our day.

When you talk about the Holy Spirit, you talk about an enhancement to a person's ability to understand the Spiritual parts of life in a completely different way.

The Religious Right believes that every word printed in the modern day Bible should be followed completely. Jesus taught that love supersedes all the Laws handed down by Moses.

He healed people on the Sabbath and harvested grain if He was hungry.

I looked down at my tires on my van and I was amazed. I had a good half inch tread left even though I had over sixty thousand miles on my tires. To me I didn't know it was a miracle, but when my son, the mechanic, looked at them, he was astonished.

So many times we take God for granted, we think He doesn't see our needs or understand how hard our life has become.

I woke from the night and listened quietly to a soft gentle whisper. It was like a glimmer of light opening up my mind with revelations and new ideas. Thoughts that were not my own. Awakening me to the influence of God that was giving me the chance to make a choice to bring goodness to my day.

I had heard this voice many times before urging me on to believe beyond my ability to comprehend why? It was a tenderness that I loved to hear.

Twenty million people are depressed in the United States alone! Many have lost hope not only in themselves, but in the American Dream. Thoughts of suicide fill their days because of the dread of living yet another day of unhappiness.

Why is this happening? Why are people melting away under clouds of hopelessness and fear? Why are they feeling rejected and despised? Why does all the depression medicine in the world seem to be unable to give these people relief?

What if our world was a game? What if depression and all suffering was brought on by our failure to understand the rules of how to engage in this life game and win? If this is the case, then not being aware that we are in a battle is not understanding how to fight!

Now lets look at this world as if it were a game.

Many people are confused as to why the war in Iraq never comes to an end. They want the war on terror to be fought, but they don't like to sacrifice American soldiers' lives.

It is time to look at this war in a Biblical sense. Separate from the modern day prophets who say this war fulfills the end of times.

I would like to look at Iraq and the Arab people in a different spiritual light.

My life was perfect and as a wife, mother and a leader in my church, I was respected. Everything changed when the Holy Spirit took my heart by surprise.

God wanted more from me than the ordinary way of the so-called right way to live. He wanted a complete change of mind. He wanted me to stop depending on what people said was the right way to live.

To my astonishment my typewriter began to move. Is this possible? I looked intently for some mechanical device that could cause such an impossible action. There was none. The typewriter clearly wrote a message, which ended in "My ways are not human ways trust in me, God has Spoken." A message from God? I showed the message to my best friend, but all she saw was gibberish .
