Standing firm can be difficult if you are afraid...

@justschool

I've seen a very wide range of people and beliefs and interests. I'd say far more diverse than my Facebook, YouTube or Instagram accounts

But the big difference is that we can share those views without censorship.

Could it be that you're used to seeing posts that dont have any of those topics you raised elsewhere, highlighting the ones you are seeing here

I've seen no posts, for example, questioning the efficacy of the vaccines except on Dingdash, because they get deleted elsewhere.

Debate is a great protector of freedom of speech and that is something DingDash makes possible 🙂

@tanjaostman Thank you for taking the time to read and share your concerns! I am struggling in very similar ways to you. I have also been stressed about the vaccines as I live on the West Coast of the US where the truth is being heavily censored. I have researched as well, and I'm grieved by all that's happening. I remind myself daily to focus on Jesus and look to his promises and what he says is true. I know how dire the situation is, but God is somehow working to turn this in our favor. I believe this agenda will fail and the Lord will save us from global tyranny. There is hope! ❤

Forcing parents to sign up to a mandatory register (like sex offenders currently so in the UK) so the government can then force access to your home to inspect you, your family and your children, using non trained, non skilled government staff, with no accountability deliberately built in so you can't complain at anything they do to your or your children - all in order to determine if you're good enough to educate your children at home, using standards that home educating families would never use

The usual excuse for it? Safeguarding

despite there being lots of evidence that it will cause harm to children, not help them

It is a disgusting attack on freedom of speech and democracy

Especially when the vast majority of home ed parents do so because state education failed their child...only to be inspected based on state education standards

It is sickening 😠

10 years ago they tried, and failed...I don't see it failing this time

With new restrictions marching back in some places, political tensions high (at least in the US) and an uncertain future in front of us, what do we do? Worship! Read my latest post to be encouraged by a word I received from God. May you find the lifeline you need to carry you through the chaos with peace and joy. ❤️🙌 https://theovercomers.blog/2021/08/20/worship-will-never-disappoint-you/

Praying for BTJ family in Afghan too. Pray and help them as the Lord leads. I just spoke to our friend Tahir and he reports that over 100 have fled Afghan to his place in PK.  They had 3 pastors in Afghan and 2 so far with their families have made it to PK.  Pastor Siddique and his family have lost contact.  They all had to take hidden paths away from all roads and highways to evade the taliban.  Many of the women had their clothes ripped and torn from climbing steep rocks and terrain.   Some of the daughters were kidnapped in the last few days and did not make it.  So tragic and evil indeed. Pray for Siddique and his family to make it to PK.  Pray for all the brethren to be covered in His wings and made invisible from evil killers.  I asked Tahir how many were making it out and he said they are heading to the closest border depending on where they are.  We have already raised saved several thousand for this .

We got word an hour ago of one of our pastors in Afghanistan, Pastor Siddique, was notified that his house now belongs to the Taliban and 'they know what he is doing.' His family has fled to the country side and others are also being threatened. We ask you to pray. CMM has already received some funds to send to them and other friends' groups working in Afghanistan like FAI and others. These are front line warriors risking their lives to share Jesus' love. As the Lord leads give at www.cmm.world for rapid response fund or covert.

My husband got 2 Pfizer shots in April
Ever since his memory is getting worse. He can't remember what I said 10 minutes ago. He has breathing problems which seems to get worse and worse.
He feels dizzy which gets worse
He has no energy and basically can't work anymore
Walking to the mailbox seems to be too much most of the time

I do all the work & am now making a list of things that need to be done so I can higher someone

When do I tell the kids? They got their shots as well

Maybe it is because I have lived in China for over 20 years? I don't know, but I LOVE tea sooooo much more than coffee. And without exaggeration - BTJ teas are the best on the market.
They are great for home, church, and Bible studies AND EVERY BOX of TEA SOLD goes to support the school fees of children of persecuted Christians.
