In times like this, we need a Savior.
I just heard that Israel has been attacked and has declared war on Hamas. We need Jesus more than ever.
I started praying for my grandsons and all our beloved boys, men, and women, who are packing for war. This is the time when we need to unite in prayer and exercise our faith, more than ever. I pray for all men and women, even on both sides, who will suffer this war, and some will die and I pray that their souls will be ready to meet the Lord, before they go to war, and if not, that they will seek salvation in the Lord. Let us remember each and every one of them, until this war is over. I pray it will not last long.
These are the times that Jesus spoke of, about the wars and rumors of wars. I feel like the rapture won't be far away and I pray all will get ready for it, before it does come, perhaps in our generation. Let us remember all those going to war, their families, and each other, each day. Amen.
If you have a secret sorrow
A burden or a loss,
An aching need for healing,
Hang it on the cross.
If worry steals your sleep
And makes you turn and toss,
If your heart is feeling heavy,
Hang it on the cross.
Every obstacle to Faith
Or doubts you come across,
Every prayer that seems unanswered,
Hang it on the cross.
For Christ has borne our brokenness
And dearly paid the cost,
To turn our trials to Triumph,
Hanging on the cross.

Ruth Caye Jones was a pastor's wife in Pennsylvania and a mother of five children. As a self-taught pianist and organist, Ruth wrote several hymns and worked with her husband in a radio ministry that they founded. In 1943, the world was at war, and Ruth was distressed by the headlines of the newspaper, which showed that Allied progress was slow in Europe, and casualties were high. Supplies were being rationed at home in the United States, and everyone was living under incredible strain. Opening her Bible to II Timothy 3:1, she read,"This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come." A song began to form itself in her mind, and she jotted the lyrics on a small pad of paper she kept in her apron pocket. A series of musical notes also began playing in her mind, which she realized were coming from the Westminster chimes of the clock on her mantle. She combined the words and music into this song.
In Times Like These (Song Video below lyrics)
In times like these you need a Savior,
In times like these you need an anchor;
Be very sure, be very sure,
Your anchor holds and grips the Solid Rock!
This Rock is Jesus, Yes He's the One,
This Rock is Jesus, the only One;
Be very sure, be very sure,
Your anchor holds and grips the Solid Rock!
In times like these you need the Bible,
In times like these, O be not idle;
Be very sure, be very sure,
Your anchor holds and grips the Solid Rock!
This Rock is Jesus, Yes He's the One,
This Rock is Jesus, the only One;
Be very sure, be very sure,
Your anchor holds and grips the Solid Rock!
In times like these I have a Savior,
In times like these I have an anchor;
I'm very sure, I'm very sure
My anchor holds and grips the Solid Rock!
This Rock is Jesus, Yes He's the One,
This Rock is Jesus, the only One;
Be very sure, be very sure,
Your anchor holds and grips the Solid Rock!
