For the last several years it seems March seems to trip over its feet…
Sometimes in like a lion… goes out like a lamb… sometimes like a bucket of maple sap… just out of the tree and a bitwatery … hasn’t been boiled down quite yet. They’ve had a rough winter… and out in the mid continent too much water in the form of snow and rain so now comes the Spring floods. Calamity all around.
I suppose I’ve heard five or six people make the observation recently they have an uneasy feeling about all the earthquakes and storms and such.
It was back about 1950 I heard a young and very famous preacher say – having realized
Well 1960 and a few more years came and went… and the truth of the scripture that says no one knows except the Father just when the return will be – just went quietly on without the return of the Lord … and it’s happened several more times with different preachers… So… I take a page from that book and say better not to even hazard a guess. Certainly we are to be in the expectant mode… and we who are in HIS hands will know when it happens – but the plain fact from scripture is that no one *besides the Father* knows – so we might as well relieve ourselves of trying to figure that out.
So with a degree of certainty I have about few things, I do believe that one… That *only* the Father knows – not even the angels. With that, I am content. I hope you are.
Cordially, IN HIM

“JUST A MINUTE”
IT’S A LONG (AND EXPENSIVE) TRAIL A-WINDING!
Just a Minute: Campaigns, military or political are easy to spot once they get rolling. So set your goal – plan -- start pouring in resources – which usually means money and…
“Ah … Not too hard.” – You say. Hmm -- it depends – if you’re going up against a dictator who has been in power 40 years – and buried a lot of people – it will likely be hard. And if your preference is to play golf -- or take your kids on a tour say of South America – while you’re already balancing and borrowing to conduct two wars, you may want to do some serious budgeting as well as planning an exit strategy to help you figure out when you’re done and can go home again.
It’s been pointed out if you’re borrowing to pay the bills and your opponent just retreats to say a large sandy desert where he can survive for a long time off his stash… or even if he gets killed by a stray bomb or bullet but someone else keeps it going … and you’re still paying the bills… win or lose, the result’s the same.
Last night – though I was listening -- I heard nothing about where do we go from here? <> I’m Jack Buttram. (END)
