Thats what somebody said to me at my work the other day. I think I will use that for my next blog. I sure enjoy writing blog posts. Today, I heard that there were 32,000 arrests. That GITMO is busy again. But this time with a different clientele. It sounds like a lot is going on. In another story I heard the Suez Canal is backed up. But the speaker clarified that it is actually the ports themselves which are backed up. After saying this, another person explained the railroads are laying people off. Not allowing over time. https://www.yahoo.com/news/theres-not-enough-work-for-us-to-do-aid-workers-at-us-army-base-wait-for-afghan-refugees-to-arrive-185919636.html at Yahoo News talks about the withdrawal from Afghanistan. The article was about how they are trying to evacuate Afghanistan Refugees. At Fort Lee, they rushed in staff from resettlement agencies. Hopefully, they are not resettling the Taliban, which has regained control of the country. The Taliban declared Afghanistan to be the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan.
According to the United States State Department the evacuations had already begun, for those who will be resettled. The first group of Afghan refugees arrived on July 30, 2021. They are called, “Special Immigrant Applicants”.
Two non-governmental organizations are participating in the resettlement: The United States Conference of Catholic Bishops, The International Rescue Committee, and a group from Washington State, World Relief Spokane.
According to the article, the Taliban has already gained control of the Capitol, Kabul. This is what is going on now, as Afghanistan collapses.
Above is a video from Sky News about Afghanistan. It is from Sky News.
Not much on COVID-19. A Bible Prophecy Teacher, named Jimmy DeYoung died of COVID. He was hospitalized on August 7. He is being mocked in the news for daring the ask if the vaccine is “a form of government control”. The only ones willing to question the government are the Christians, it seems like. He died on August 15, 2021. Imagine if it was one of there actors that died- oh, we all have to bow down, and pretend we cared. But a pastor dies and they make sure to mock the Christians anyway possible. It just seems Christians are questioning the narrative. Like Jesus, the Christians are a threat to control.
Now, I am just listening to Dr. Tony Evans on KCBI. He just said, “Sometimes- God is weird”. He meant no disrespect he said. But he claimed that we have dumbed down the Word, rather than letting the Bible be the Word of God.
Speaking of God. The Word. I read this verse in a meme the other day. It gave me such encouragement. It is from 1 Thessalonians. 1 Thes. 5:18 Whatever happens give thanks, because it is God’s will in Christ Jesus that you do this. I like that verse. It means a lot to me to be able to include it in my very first blog post.
My life is about giving thanks. I always have to remember to give thanks. God has been good to me. He always has been. I know he always will be. I just do not understand God sometimes. So, I guess this verse goes well with what Dr. Tony Evans had to say.
I work at Albertsons. I am a Courtesy Clerk. I am going into my second year. The job is so fast passed. The time just flies. By the time I realize it is time for a break, it is already time to go soon.
Anyways. That is all I have to write. I hope you are doing well. I am all out of coffee. Time for a cigarette.
