Parasha Vayera & Sermon "Dress for Stress"

Shalom and Blessings; 

These are perilous times we are living in. Radical Islam is terrorizing Europe and it may not be too long before we see attacks against the West increase. Sadly we have done it to ourselves by shutting God out of our lives, out of our countries, out of our schools and replacing Him with political correctness and tolerance. The generation now in primary and secondary school and those in college and university will be our political leaders of the future and they will be bringing along with them the godless liberal ideals being taught them, reminiscent of Sodom and Gomorrah. The sad thing is there is nothing we can do about it because it is God's will as laid-out in His Word concerning the end times. We can but expect only great pain and suffering to come upon the world and I feel sorry for our children and grandchildren. One of the prayers that are pray from the traditional Jewish prayer book goes like this from the Amidah: 

"You graciously endow man with wisdom and teach insight to a frail mortal. Endow us graciously from Yourself with wisdom, insight, and discernment. Blessed are You, Lord, gracious Giver of wisdom." 

What we need most in these difficult times is wisdom, insight and discernment. We need to be able to look beyond the physical and see into the spiritual. We cannot trust our eyes or our feelings because they will deceive us. We cannot even take people at face value just because they are nice people; have beautiful children, because Scripture tells us that even the devil masquerades as an angel of light. We need to have wisdom, insight and discernment to not look with our eyes but to be tuned into the leading of the Holy Spirit; otherwise we will be deceived and led astray. Our salvation and our eternal destiny depend on it! 

Please continue to support the water project for the orphanage in Kenya; we are so close to reaching our goal. Response has been so encouraging but there is still a little way to go, no gift is too small. Thank you and God bless you for your concern and generosity.
