The Pain of the World

On a clear night, when everyone is asleep.  I feel the pain of the world. I feel it. And there is nothing I can do about it. It hurts, but if I complain too much, I end up tuning people out. People zone out because no one wants to know about it, no one wants to feel so helpless.

Nevertheless I feel the pain.

Its as if the world is one person and its dying. Struggling to breath its last breath, it fights mightily for that breath. I think I'm near the head whispering at it to find the will to live again. Then I move to the heart pleading and appealing to it to rouse itself. Then I move again hoping to show it, its own crown...wanting to place it back on its head.

Alas...

Shall I make love to it? just as some say an embryo gets life, gets more and more spirit when the parents join, shall I try to infuse it with spirit? Shall I whisper sweet nothings to it, until it pleases?

And who am I? I am black, but comely! I am young, but can bring down great things! I am small but do much good in the world! I am black, but comely.

And I admit, the distractions lured me away and I cared not for you....A long time this was....I was more interested in watching tv, in listening to music, in fussing with my own preoccupation and did not care about the world, the spirit of the world...I did not hear the knocking ...

I pray its not too late. I pray that in my own little way, I can do my part in infusing life...in uplifting the Shekhina...in reminding the world of Gan Eden, Paradise and bliss that this world can be...if only...

I feel the pain of the world...

"I feel the pain of the world..."

As do I. Miriam, there's a quickening going on. I'm being shown things that would devastate the faint of heart.

I'm not sharing them, because I want people to pray, and not be discouraged.

At no other time in our long history, as much as in this time, the world is in need of prayer.

I am soooooo curious. Could I get a glimpse?

"I am soooooo curious. Could I get a glimpse?"

You may regret asking. Those in the spirit realm don't make the distinctions that we make here. They're not as concerned about lines of demarcation between nation states, or the social separation of the various races or ethnicities.

They see one people, and one race, and think globally, rather than discretely.

I was told and shown:

"This is in your future." A man stood holding in his grasp a list of events. At the very top of the list was written, "The Ultimate Weapon," which I took to mean a nuclear bomb.

I saw the other items on the list, but, after seeing the first, chose not to let the others resister as fully.

These tragedies can be averted, but will require a great deal of prayer, since others are devoting the full power of their intentions behind it.

People are asleep, and they're refusing to awaken. We who are opposing the darkness need more workers, more people praying, "Work while it is day, for night cometh...."

Hi First Domino,

Firstly, I think they are right in seeing one people, one race, etc.

Re: the ultimate weapon. Hmmm. It may not necessarily be the nuclear weapon. Of course, it may very well be it.

But prayer can change the course of things. (which is why sometimes I wonder if the ultimate weapon is something that will cause the world to lose faith, and not pray!) I am praying as much as I can. As I am sure many others are too. Admittedly, I can't keep up the same intensity. To bad there wasn't shifts. But I guess my whole life is my "shift".

Re: people being asleep. I agree! Even I want to -I feel the urge to- go to sleep.

If you saw the movie the Matrix, the people who took the pill were able to move really crazy fast -so fast they could dodge bullets. I think the reality is more that the world is moving slower and slower, and those who are awake seem to be moving super fast!
