AND TODAY'S 700 CLUB.

HUNDRED CLUB.

WE START TODAY WITH SOME

UNFORTUNATE NEWS NEWS OUT OF

THE WHITE HOUSE.

PRESIDENT BIDEN HAS ISSUED A A

WARNING TO ISRAEL CHANGE SOME

OF YOUR KEY POLICIES IN GAZA OR

THE U.S. MAY REEVALUATE ITS.

THE PRESIDENT IS ALSO DEMANDING

AN IMMEDIATE CEASE FIRE DEAL.

AT THE SAME TIME, BIDEN

HARSHLY CRITICIZED ISRAEL FOR

THE AIRSTRIKE THAT ACCIDENTALLY

KILLED SEVEN AID WORKERS.

EVEN THOUGH HIS OWN

ADMINISTRATION ADMINISTRATION

WAS RESPONSIBLE FOR A SIMILAR

TRAGEDY IN THE PULLOUT FROM

AFGHANISTAN CHRIS MITCHELL

BRINGS US THE STORY FROM

JERUSALEM.

ISRAEL MOVED TO GET MORE AID

INTO GAZA BY OPENING UP A KEY

PORT AND A CROSSING INTO

NORTHERN GAZA.

THIS AFTER PRESIDENT BIDEN TOLD

PRIME MINISTER NETANYAHU POLICY

TOWARD ISRAEL WILL CHANGE

UNLESS THE UNLESS THE ISRAELI

MILITARY DOES MORE TO PROTECT

AID WORKERS AND AND DEALS WITH

THE HUMANITARIAN SITUATION IN

GAZA.

WITH RESPECT RESPECT TO GAZA

WE NEED TO SEE CERTAIN CHANGES.

AND IF WE IF WE DON'T THEN

WE'LL HAVE TO CONSIDER CHANGES

TO OUR OWN POLICY.

BUT IT'S NOT ABOUT.

IT'S NOT ABOUT LEVERAGE.

BIDEN ALSO TOLD NETANYAHU HE

WANTS A CEASE FIRE DEAL WITHOUT

DELAY.

HE UNDERSCORED AS AN

IMMEDIATE CEASE FIRE IS

ESSENTIAL TO STABILIZE

SITUATION AND PROTECT INNOCENT

CIVILIANS.

AND HE.

AND HE URGED PRIME MINISTER

NETANYAHU TO EMPOWER HIS

NEGOTIATORS TO CONCLUDE A DEAL

A DEAL WITHOUT DELAY.

BUT THERE ARE STILL BIG

DIFFERENCES BETWEEN ISRAEL

ISRAEL AND HAMAS AS HAMAS WANTS

THE WAR TO END IMMEDIATELY WITH

A COMPLETE ISRAELI PULLOUT FROM

GAZA.

SO SOME ARGUE A CEASE FIRE

COULD MEAN LOSING THE WAR.

JEFF BALABAN, WHO LEADS THE

AMERICAN CENTER FOR LAW AND

JUSTICE OPERATIONS FROM

JERUSALEM, TOLD CBS NEWS WOULD

HAVE DIRE CONSEQUENCES FOR

ISRAEL.

FOR ISRAEL.

THE IMPLICATIONS FOR THAT IS

THAT AMERICA HAS NOW COMPLETELY

BECOME BECOME ISRAEL'S TACTICAL

ENEMY IN IN REAL TERMS.

IN PRACTICAL TERMS.

THIS IS IMPOSSIBLE THAT IS

DEMANDING THAT ISRAEL LOSE THIS

WAR.

ISRAEL CANNOT AFFORD TO LOSE

THIS WAR.

THIS IS AN EXISTENTIAL WAR.

NETANYAHU ALSO MAINTAINS

ISRAEL MUST WIN ITS WAR AGAINST

TERRORIST FORCES FOR THE SAKE

OF THE U.S. AND THE REST OF THE

WEST.

THIS IS A LARGER BATTLE.

OUR BATTLE IS YOUR BATTLE.

OUR VICTORY IS YOUR VICTORY.

AND THEY IF WE DON'T HAVE A

VICTORY THIS WILL HAVE ENORMOUS

FOR AMERICAN SECURITY FOR OUR

COMMON FUTURE.

WE MUST WIN.

IN HIS CALL WITH NETANYAHU,

BIDEN EXPRESS OVER ISRAEL'S

ACCIDENTALLY KILLING OF SEVEN

AID WORKERS IN GAZA ON MONDAY.

BUT AMERICAN CONSERVATIVES

POINT OUT THE U.S. ALSO KILLED

CIVILIANS WITH A DRONE STRIKE

DURING BIDEN'S CHAOTIC PULLOUT

FROM IN 2021.

I AM NOW CONVINCED AS TEN

CIVILIANS INCLUDING UP TO SEVEN

CHILDREN WERE TRAGICALLY KILLED

IN THAT STRIKE.

MEANWHILE IS TAKING HEAT FOR

SUGGESTING ISRAEL COULD BECOME

IF IT DOESN'T DO MORE TO

REVERENCE LIFE IN.

THAT'S OUR STRENGTH.

IT'S WHAT DISTINGUISHES FROM

TERRORISTS LIKE HAMAS.

WE LOSE THAT REVERENCE FOR

HUMAN FOR HUMAN LIFE.

WE RISK BECOMING

INDISTINGUISHABLE FROM THOSE WE

CONFRONT.

THE LATEST DISAGREEMENT

BETWEEN THE WHITE AND ISRAEL

COMES AS ISRAELIS FROM ALL

POLITICAL VIEWPOINTS BELIEVE

THEIR COUNTRY STANDS ALONE IN

THE WORLD THEIR POLITICAL

DIVISIONS.

ISRAELIS AGREE HAMAS DESTROYED

.

BALABAN SAYS MANY IN ISRAEL ARE

.

THEY FEEL 100% RESOLUTE.

THERE IS A LARGE WE'VE SEEN

THIS SINCE THE BEGINNING OF THE

WAR.

TURNING TO WAR.

TURNING TO GOD WE SEE PEOPLE

WHO SAY THINGS LIKE I'M NOT

SURE I'M A BELIEVER BUT I'M

KEEPING SHABBAT OR I'M NOT SURE

I'M A BELIEVER BUT SURE I'M A

BELIEVER BUT I'M GOING TO SAY

THIS IS MY PRAYER OR I'M GOING

TO WEAR IT BECAUSE THAT'S WHAT

UNIFIES THE JEWISH PEOPLE.

CHRIS MITCHELL CBN NEWS,

JERUSALEM.

WELL MAY THAT UNITY STAND IN

ISRAEL AND I JUST WANT THE

PEOPLE TO KNOW WE STAND WITH

YOU.

WE UNDERSTAND THE CRISIS YOU'RE

AND WE UNDERSTAND THAT YOU

CAN'T HAVE A UNILATERAL CEASE

FIRE BECAUSE THAT IS NOT EVER A

CEASE FIRE.

HAMAS HAS HAS VOWING TO REPEAT

OCTOBER SEVEN AGAIN AND AGAIN

AND AGAIN THERE IS NO CEASE

FIRE LANGUAGE IN THAT THERE IS

NO IN THAT YOU HAVE TO DEFEAT

HAMAS AND YOU HAVE TO

DECISIVELY.

THE WEST NEEDS TO UNDERSTAND

AND WE UNDERSTAND IT AND I

UNDERSTAND IT WITH YOU.

MAY THE PRAYER OF JEHOSHAPHAT

TO SECOND CHRONICLES CHAPTER 20

MAY THE PRAYER OF JEHOSHAPHAT

BE YOUR PRAYER THAT PRAISE THE

LORD HALLELUJAH HIS MERCY

FOREVER.

THAT'S WHAT THEY SANG AS INTO

BATTLE.

AND IN THAT GOD SENT CONFUSE TO

THE ENEMY AND HE WON THE WAR

FOR THEM WE WITH YOU BECAUSE WE

KNOW THAT THE GOD IS GOING

PROMISES AND HIS COVENANT WITH

THE JEWISH PEOPLE MADE A

COVENANT WITH ABRAHAM.

HE MADE IT WITH ISAAC.

HE CALLED JACOB ISRAEL AND THAT

COVENANT STANDS TODAY ANY KIND

OF UNIT WHERE ISRAEL SAYS WE'RE

GOING TO STOP THE WAR AND WE'RE

WAR AND WE'RE GOING TO STOP

TRYING TO PURSUE HAMAS JUST

GIVES GIVES HAMAS THE VICTORY

AND EVERYTHING THAT'S HAPPENING

NOW FROM THE US GOVERNMENT IS

REASSURING HAMAS YOU HAVE TO DO

IS WAIT.

WE ARE GOING TO COME TO YOUR AT

THE END OF THIS YOU'RE STILL

GOING TO BE IN CHARGE OF GAZA.

THAT'S A MESSAGE WE SHOULD

NEVER SEND TO A TERRORIST GROUP

.

YOU'VE LABELED THEM A TERRORIST

GROUP HOLD TO INSIST THAT THEY

UNCONDITIONALLY UNCONDITIONALLY

SURRENDER AND THAT THEY RELEASE

ALL THE HOSTAGES AND I REMIND

THE WHITE HOUSE THERE ARE

AMERICAN HOSTAGE HOSTAGE JUST

RIGHT NOW IN THE HANDS OF

HAMAS.

YOU YOU SHOULD BE DEDICATED TO

FREEING YOUR OWN CITIZENS.

SO LET THE WHITE HOUSE KNOW LET

YOUR CONGRESSMEN KNOW LET YOUR

SENATOR KNOW YOU STAND WITH

ISRAEL AND.

YOU EXPECT THEM TO DO THAT AS

WELL.

IN OTHER NEWS, ALL FEELING THE

IMPACT OF THE RISING TENSIONS

IN THE MIDDLE EAST, THE GAS

PUMP.

FROM GRAHAM HAS THAT STORY.

MORE FROM THE FROM GORDON

INTERNATIONAL HIGHEST LEVEL

SINCE OCTOBER WITH THE GLOBAL

BENCHMARK TO MORE THAN DOLLARS

THURSDAY.

OIL PRICES HAVE BEEN CLIMBING

THIS YEAR WITH ABOUT THE

SITUATION IN THE MIDDLE EAST.

ANALYSTS SAY THIS PRICES COULD

LEAD TO MORE WORRIES ABOUT

INFLATION INFLATION WHICH COULD

MEAN IT WILL BE LONGER UNTIL

THE FEDERAL FEDERAL FEDERAL

CUTS INTEREST RATES.

MEANWHILE TODAY'S UNEMPLOYMENT

NUMBERS FOR MARCH MARCH CAME IN

AT 3.8% WITH JOB GROWTH HIGHER

THAN EXPECTED.

THIS COULD SLOW DOWN THE FED'S

TO CUT RATES.

DESPITE THOSE JOB NUMBERS,

LAYOFFS

FAST FOOD RESTAURANTS IN

CALIFORNIA WITH NEW MINIMUM

WAGE HIKE FROM 16 HOUR.

FOR MANY OF THOSE LOCATIONS

BEGINNING THIS WEEK THIS WEEK,

SOME OWNERS ARE CUTTING COSTS

TO MAKE UP FOR THE NEW EXPENSE

BY BY LETTING SOME EMPLOYEES GO

AND RAISING PRICES.

CBN'S BRODY BRODY CARTER HAS

THAT STORY.

SINCE MONDAY, APRIL FIRST

FAST FOOD WORKERS AT SOME MAJOR

LARGE CHAINS HAVE SEEN A JUMP

IN THEIR PAY.

IT AIMS TO PROVIDE A LIVING

WAGE FOR THESE WORKERS IN

CALIFORNIA A STATE KNOWN FOR

ITS HIGH COST OF LIVING.

BUT OWNERS WORRY COST THEM

BUSINESS.

ALLOW THEM INTO I GUESS I'LL

GO IN THE OTHER DIRECTION

DIRECTION.

KFC AND UBER PROPOSAL THE

WASTE.

FAST FOOD WORKERS SAY A PAY SAY

A PAY BUMP IS LONG OVERDUE AND

TAKE MAYBE A DAY OFF AND BE

WITH MY FAMILY FAMILY OR DO

SOMETHING WITH MY DAUGHTER

WHICH I HAVEN'T DONE IN A LONG

TIME.

BUT FOR FOR OWNERS THE

HIGHER COST IS HARD TO SWALLOW.

2024 HAS BEEN A TOUGH YEAR

TO DATE.

WE HAVE SOFT SALES.

WE HAVE DECLINING TRAFFIC.

SO FOR A BUSINESS OWNER I MEAN

THAT THAT'S THE WORST TIME TO

HAVE TO RAISE PRICES BUT I SEE

IT AS A NECESSITY TO, YOU KNOW,

COMPLY THEN ALSO STAY IN

BUSINESS.

ALEX JOHNSON OWNS TEN

ANT-MAN'S AND CINNABON STORES

IN CALIFORNIA.

HE EXPECTS ROUGHLY HALF A

MILLION DOLLARS IN INCREASED

OPERATIONAL COSTS SPREAD ACROSS

THESE STORES AND WORRIES IT

COULD DO HIM IN FOR GOOD.

WE'RE NO LONGER HIRING WE'RE

NOT BACKFILLING POSITIONS.

WE'RE NOT GROWING IN STATE

ANYMORE.

WE'RE NOT EXPANDING MORE

LOCATIONS AND I'M ULTIMATELY

SELLING OR CLOSING MY BUSINESS.

THE PRESSURE IS BEING FELT

LIKE MOST FAST FOOD RESTAURANTS

CARRIE HARPER HOWIE.

HARPER HOWIE, WHO MANAGES 21

MCDONALD'S LOCATIONS, HAS

PASSED ON THAT ON THAT COST TO

THEIR CUSTOMERS AND SHE WORRIES

HOW THOSE HIGHER PRICES WILL BE

RECEIVED.

EVERYONE IS NOT GOING TO BE

ABLE AFFORD EVEN THE MEASURED

AND THOUGHT OUT PRICE CHANGES

THAT WE ARE GOING TO BE.

AND SOME RESTAURANTS ARE

DEALING WITH LAYING PEOPLE OFF,

CUTTING ON WORKERS HOURS AND

EVENTUALLY SOME WILL LIKELY

REPLACE PART OF WITH ARTIFICIAL

INTELLIGENCE OR ROBOTS.

CBN NEWS.

WE WANT TO TURN WE WANT TO

TURN NOW TO POLITICS.

FOR MORE THAN 40 YEARS

EVANGELICAL VOTERS VOTERS HAVE

TENDED TO FAVOR CONSERVATIVE

REPUBLICAN CANDIDATES DONALD.

TRUMP GAIN THE SUPPORT OF

ABOUT 80 PERCENT OF WHITE

EVANGELICALS TWO ELECTIONS.

CBN CHIEF POLITICAL ANALYST

DAVID BRODY LOOK AT HOW THIS

COALITION DEVELOPED AND THE KEY

YEAR'S ELECTION.

DEFINING THE EVANGELICAL

VOTER HAS ALWAYS BEEN A

CHALLENGE AND NOWADAYS IT'S

BECOME EVEN MORE COMPLICATED.

FORMER GOP GOP NOMINEE FOR

PRESIDENT MIKE HUCKABEE SAYS

EVANGELICALS DON'T JUST JUST

FIT INTO ONE BOX ANYMORE.

I GET SO TIRED OF HEARING

PARTICULARLY LINE.

WELL, EVANGELICALS ARE ALL AND

THEN FILL IN THE BLANK.

EVANGELICALS ARE NOT ALL

ANYTHING ARE PEOPLE WITH A LOT

OF DIFFERENT VIEWS.

HUCKABEE KNOWS THE PLAYING

WHEN HE FIRST RAN FOR PRESIDENT

2008, HIS MORE POPULIST TONE

RESONATED WITH EVANGELICALS.

BLESS OUR PRESIDENT DONALD

TRUMP LONG BEFORE DONALD TRUMP

CAME ALONG I WAS TALKING ABOUT

WORKING CLASS ISSUES.

AND AT THAT TIME IT WAS A

LITTLE BIT TOO SOON FOR THE

REPUBLICAN PARTY TO HEAR IT.

FAST FORWARD TO 2024 AND

HEADLINES SUCH AS TRUMP HAS

TRANSFORMED EVANGELICALS AND IS

CONNECTING WITH A DIFFERENT

TYPE OF EVANGELICAL.

HIGHLIGHT THE CHANGE AND THOSE

RESULT FROM FROM THE FORMER

PRESIDENT'S APPEAL TO THOSE WHO

MIGHT NOT ATTEND CHURCH

REGULARLY AND ARE SEEN AS

ANTI-ESTABLISHMENT AND

ANTI-ELITIST.

CHAD CONNELLY LEADS THE GET OUT

THE VOTE ORGANIZATION FAITH.

I THINK IT'S FAIR THAT HE'S

BROUGHT OUT A WHOLE DIFFERENT

SEGMENT THAT HAVE BEEN REALLY

MISSING.

AND THAT INCLUDES EVANGELICALS

,INCLUDES EVANGELICALS A

GROWING DISTRUST OF HAS HELPED

DRIVE THIS CHANGE IN 2017.

31% OF WHITE EVANGELICAL

PROTESTANTS EXPRESS TRUST IN

THE GOVERNMENT.

TODAY THE NUMBER HAS DROPPED

MORE THAN HALF TO 15%.

PERHAPS A MORE TELLING SHIFT IS

THE STANDARD ON PERSONAL

MORALITY OF A CANDIDATE.

MORE THAN A DECADE AGO 30% OF

WHITE EVANGELICALS BELIEVED AN

ELECTED OFFICIAL COULD COMMIT

PERSONAL IMMORAL ACTS AND STILL

BE ETHICAL IN THEIR PUBLIC

LIFE.

THAT NUMBER SKYROCKETED TO 72%.

IN EDUCATION.

EXIT POLLS IN THIS YEAR'S GOP

PRIMARIES SHOW THAT WHILE TRUMP

SPLIT THE COLLEGE EDUCATED

EDUCATED EVANGELICAL VOTE, HE

WINS MORE THAN THIRDS OF THOSE

WHO DIDN'T GO TO COLLEGE.

WE HEARD DURING THE THAT THE

LEFT WOULDN'T GO VISIT IN THE

AREAS IN PENNSYLVANIA THAT WERE

JUST BLUE COLLAR GO TO GO TO

WORK FLAG WAVING, GOD FEARING

BUT MIGHT HAVE A BEER ON A

FRIDAY AFTERNOON AFTERNOON KIND

OF THING AND GO TO CHURCH ONCE

A MONTH.

I DO THINK THAT TRUMP TRUMP HAS

BROUGHT THOSE PEOPLE OUT.

MANY OF THOSE VOTERS ARE

LIKELY FORMER DEMOCRATS OR

INDEPENDENTS WHO HAVE ADDED A

NEW LAYER TO THE EVANGELICAL

COLUMN.

THEY'RE ALSO SEEN AS LEANING

TOWARD TRUMP ON ISSUES LIKE

ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION, ECONOMIC

UNCERTAINTY AND THAT LACK OF

TRUST IN THE FEDERAL

GOVERNMENT.

THERE'S SOMETHING GOING ON

IN THE COUNTRY WHAT HE SAYS

MAKES SENSE AND IT MAKES SENSE

TO THE HARDWORKING OF AMERICA.

CONNOLLY'S GROUP IS PLANNING

A COMMON SENSE AMERICA WHICH

STOPS AT CHURCHES NATIONWIDE.

INSTEAD CHURCH CONFERENCE

FOCUSING ON AREAS SUCH AS LIFE

AND MARRIAGE TOUR WILL BE

BROADER TOUCHING ON ISSUES

DEEPLY AFFECTING.

DAVID I'VE BEEN IN 11 STATES

THIS YEAR NOT A SINGLE AFFECTED

BY THE DRUG TRAFFICKING.

THE FIT NOW WHO HAD DEACONS OR

MEMBERS OR TILERS INVOLVED IN

THEIR CHURCH SUNDAY SCHOOL

TEACHERS WHO'VE LOST KIDS LOST

KIDS TO THE SPITTING ALL

POISONING STUFF OR EVEN PEOPLE

IN THEIR FAMILY COMMUNITY

COMMUNITY IN THE CHURCHES OF

THE BACKSTOP.

SO I JUST THINK THIS POPULIST

MOVEMENT IS BECAUSE PEOPLE ARE

FED UP WITH WHAT'S GOING ON AND

YOU DON'T HAVE TO BE A

CHRISTIAN TO SEE IT.

DAVID BRODY, CBN NEWS,

WASHINGTON ELECTIONS COMING

QUICKER THAN WE REALIZE.

GORDON I CAN'T GET HERE SOON

ENOUGH.

THE STAGE IS CERTAINLY AND

IF YOU'RE NOT REGISTERED TO

VOTE PLEASE GET REGISTERED.

AND DON'T JUST FOCUS ON THE

PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION.

THERE ARE A LOT CALLED DOWN

BALLOT RACES THAT ABSOLUTELY OF

THE COUNTRY AND OUR PATH GOING

FORWARD YOU CAN HAVE A VERY

SERIOUS ARGUMENT THAT OUR

GOVERNMENT AND DEMOCRATS AND

REPUBLICANS CAN'T PASS ANY KIND

OF LEGISLATION LET ALONE

COMPREHENSIVE LEGISLATION ON

PRESSING ISSUES ISSUES LIKE

IMMIGRATION.

THEY JUST CAN'T SEEM CAN'T SEEM

TO EVER GET IT DONE.

BUT I'VE BEEN AROUND

POLITICS FOR A VERY A VERY LONG

TIME AND IF YOU THINK THAT

CHRISTIAN VOTERS ARE ARE

SOMEHOW MONOLITHIC NO, THEY'RE

NOT AND EACH ONE MAKES UP THEIR

OWN MIND OF HOW TO.

AND THAT IS BEEN MY EXPERIENCE

DECADES.

NUMBER ONE ISSUES TEND TO BE

POCKETBOOK AND YOU KNOW HOW'S

THE ECONOMY DOING AND REAGAN'S

FAMOUS PHRASE ARE YOU BETTER

OFF TODAY THAN YOU WERE FOUR

YEARS AGO?

THOSE THOSE TEND TO DRIVE

THINGS LIKE NOTHING ELSE BUT

THESE DAYS WE HAVE A NEW

PHENOMENON WHERE PEOPLE THINK

THAT GOVERNMENT IS AGAINST YOU

THAT THE GOVERNMENT IS TRYING

TO ENFORCE SOME KIND OF

IDEOLOGY THAT DISAGREES WITH

YOUR FUNDAMENTAL FAITH.

THAT'S A GAME CHANGER FOR THE

AMERICAN REPUBLIC.

AND YET WHEN YOU START

GOVERNMENT IS IS OUT TO GET YOU

AND WHAT YOU SEE AS THE POLICE

DESCEND AND OR YOU HAVE THE

SENSE YOU'RE BEING CONSTANTLY

OR I'M FROM THE GOVERNMENT AND

I'M HERE TO HELP YOU HERE TO

HELP YOU NO YOU'RE NOT.

THESE ARE VERY SERIOUS

ISSUES THAT WE'RE FACING AND TO

DIVIDE IT BASED ON YOU

EVANGELICAL OR NOT EVANGELICAL.

I THINK BOTH NEED TO WAKE UP IF

THE AMERICAN PEOPLE AS THINK

THEIR OWN GOVERNMENT IS AGAINST

STAY CONNECTED WITH CBN

NEWS ALL DAY ACROSS OUR

PLATFORMS.

ISRAEL AND HEZBOLLAH ON THE

BRINK OF A FULL SCALE WAR WITH

ROCKET ATTACKS AND AIRSTRIKES

OCCURRING DAILY.

MUCH OF NORTHERN ISRAEL HAS

BEEN EVACUATED WHILE MANY

CHRISTIANS IN SOUTH LEBANON

REMAIN AT HOME.

THOMAS BRINGS US THIS EXCLUSIVE

REPORT FROM HEZBOLLAH TERRITORY

.

IT'S IT'S A SCENE THAT HAS

PLAYED OUT EACH YEAR 1890 WHEN

ST GEORGE'S CHURCH OPENED ITS

DOORS IN THE HILLS OF SOUTH

LEBANON.

LEBANESE TAKING PART IN THE

GOOD FRIDAY PROCESSION CARRYING

WITH A JESUS CHRIST STATUE

THROUGH THE TOWN OF CLEAR THIS

YEAR WAS NO DIFFERENT.

OUR CHRISTIAN ANCESTORS HERE

FACED THE WAR AND THEY NEVER

ABANDONED THEIR LAND OR THEIR

FAITH.

THEY STOOD FAST AGAINST ALL

ADVERSITIES AND WE'RE GOING THE

SAME BECAUSE THAT'S THE SPIRIT

WE INHERITED FROM THEM.

CLAY AND MORE THAN A DOZEN

OTHER CHRISTIAN VILLAGES WITH

ISRAEL.

ON EIGHTH WHEN HEZBOLLAH

STARTED LAUNCHING ROCKETS AT

ISRAEL IN SUPPORT OF THE HAMAS

ATTACKS, CHRISTIANS HERE

SUDDENLY FOUND CAUGHT IN A

CONFLICT.

THEY DIDN'T ASK FOR OR JUST

BECAUSE ONE GROUP DECIDED TO GO

TO WAR WITH ISRAEL 100% SURE

THAT ALL OF US ARE OTHER

PEOPLE'S AGENDAS AND WE WANT NO

PART.

SINCE WAR BEGAN IN GAZA, THE

ISLAMIC TERROR MUCH OF SOUTH

LEBANON HAS FIRED MORE THAN

MORE THAN 3000 ROCKETS AT

ISRAELI CIVILIAN AND MILITARY

TARGETS TARGETS FROM AREA

HILLTOPS AND VILLAGES.

I CAME CAME A VILLAGE ADJACENT

TO CLEAR HAS ASPHALT MULTIPLE

ISRAELI ISRAELI ROCKET AND

MISSILE STRIKES DURING THIS

TIME.

EL KHIAM KHIAM IS ONE OF

HEZBOLLAH STRONGHOLDS AND

THAT'S THE MAIN REASON ISRAEL

ISRAEL IS TARGETING THAT TOWN.

SOME 90,000 PEOPLE FROM

SOUTH LEBANON, MOSTLY

CHRISTIANS EVACUATED TO THE

NORTH AFTER HEZBOLLAH STARTED

LAUNCHING THEIR ROCKETS.

AMONG CHRISTIAN ENTREPRENEUR

GEORGES SALAMEH, HIS CARPENTRY

BUSINESS DUE TO CONSTANT

SHELLING, THE WAR WOULD END IN

TEN OR 15 DAYS BUT IT'S KEPT ON

AND MOST OF THE BUSINESSES IN

THE VILLAGES VILLAGES GOT

AFFECTED AND NOW BECAUSE OF

THIS WE HAVE NO INCOME HERE IN

CLAY AND OTHER SMALL CHRISTIAN

VILLAGES THAT THE SOUTH LEBANON

LANDSCAPE.

THE BIG CONCERN NOW THAT

HEZBOLLAH COULD POTENTIALLY

COME INTO THEIR COMMUNITIES AND

USE NEIGHBORHOODS IN ORDER TO

LAUNCH MISSILE ATTACKS AGAINST

ISRAEL.

SO WHAT SCARES US THE MOST

IS IF HEZBOLLAH STARTS FIRING.

FOR EXAMPLE, LAST WEEK THEY

FIRED MISSILES AND MOST OF

THEIR MISSILES THEN REACH THEIR

TARGETS FELL SHORT OF HITTING

LEBANESE TOWNS.

LANDED IN THE CHRISTIAN VILLAGE

OF MARJAYOUN WORKING WORKING OF

CHRISTIANS USED TO BE THE

MAJORITY IN THE SOUTH.

NOT ANYMORE.

THEIR NUMBERS HAVE SLOWLY

DWINDLED SINCE.

HEZBOLLAH MOVED IN.

THIS SITUATION FOR CHRISTIANS

NOT HERE IN THE SOUTH BUT THE

WHOLE COUNTRY HAS BEEN DISMAL

AND THERE'S NO STABILITY AND

BECAUSE OF THIS THERE'S A LOT

OF CHRISTIAN MOSTLY FROM THE

SOUTH.

A CHRISTIAN REPORTED ON HERE

FOR MORE THAN 30 YEARS FEARS

THIS LATEST CRISIS WILL SPARK

AN EVEN LARGER EXODUS.

HONESTLY, PEOPLE HERE DON'T

DREAM ANYMORE.

WE HAD A LOT OF DREAMS WHEN WE

WERE YOUNG.

WE HAD DREAMS OF LIVING IN

PEACE AND COMFORT.

WE WORKED HARD FOR IT.

BUT THE YEARS PROVED DOES WRONG

AND ALL OUR DREAMS HAVE

EVAPORATED.

PIERRE TELLS CBN NEWS THAT

DESPITE BEING CAUGHT BETWEEN

AND ISRAEL, THE CHRISTIANS OF

SOUTH LEBANON WILL CONTINUE A

MESSAGE OF HOPE AND PEACE.

WE.

OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST TOLD US

TO PRAY AND THAT'S WHY WE'RE

NOT GOING TO STOP PRAYING TO

STOP PRAYING OUR GOD CAN REMOVE

THIS DARK CLOUD AND HE'S ABLE

ABLE TO CHANGE AND SOFTEN

HEARTS AND BRING PEACE TO OUR

AREA.

LET'S JOIN WITH THOSE OF THE

DEDICATED CHRISTIANS WHO HAVE

SEEN SO MUCH AND SO MUCH

TURMOIL AND STILL HOLDING

STRONG IN THE MIDDLE OF

HORRIFIC CONFLICT.

IT'S ENCOURAGING TO SEE THEIR

FAITH.

LET US JOIN THAT FAITH AND YES,

AGAIN PRAY FOR THE PEACE EAST,

THE PEACE OF JERUSALEM, THE

PEACE OF LEBANON.

REMEMBER LEBANON BACK IN THE

1960S I VISITED AND IT WAS THE

JEWEL OF THE MEDITERRANEAN AND

THEY PROCLAIMED WE KNOW HOW TO

DO IT.

WE KNOW HOW TO TO HAVE ALL THE

JEWS AND THE MUSLIMS AND THE

CHRISTIANS ALL LIVING TOGETHER

PARTICIPATING IN THE GOVERNMENT

.

WE KNOW HOW TO DO THIS

PEACEFULLY.

AND THEN THE PLO IN AND IN THE

EARLY 1970S AND COMPLETELY

WRECKED IT LET'S HAVE PEACE AND

LET'S GET RID THAT THAT WE HAVE

TO DRIVE THE SEA.

LET THAT NEVER BE PROCLAIMED

AGAIN CAN PRAY FOR PEACE.

WE CAN HAVE PEACE NEED TO BE

TELL ME WHAT YOUR LIFE WAS LIKE

BEFORE THE ENVELOPE GREW UP.

THE DAUGHTER OF TWO

RECOVERING ALCOHOLIC.

AND SO MY MY HOUSE WAS LOUD AND

ALSO FULL OF LOVE AND HARDSHIP

HARDSHIP.

MY MOM WAS ALSO A VIETNAM

VETERAN.

SHE SERVED DURING THE VIETNAM

WAR FROM 1969 TO 1970 AND SHE

WAS THE AUTHOR OF HOME BEFORE

MORNING WHICH WAS THE VERY

FIRST NONFICTION ACCOUNT OF THE

WAR.

IF ANYBODY REMEMBERS THE SHOW

CHINA BEACH IT WAS LOOSELY

BASED OFF OF MY MOM'S BOOK AND

SO IN 1994 SHE CONTRACTED A DUE

TO HER EXPOSURE TO AGENT

ORANGE.

OH, WOW.

YEAH.

THAT DISEASE FOR EIGHT YEARS.

DOCTORS ORIGINALLY TOLD YEARS

AND SHE GOT EIGHT.

SHE PASSED AWAY SHE PASSED AWAY

WHEN I WAS A SENIOR IN HIGH

SCHOOL.

AND SO, YOU KNOW, GROWING UP IN

THIS HOME WHERE I I DIDN'T KNOW

THE LORD BUT IT WAS A HOME FULL

OF LOVE AND JOY BUT ALSO JUST

DEEP SUFFERING AND PAIN.

AND SO USED HUMOR AND LAUGHTER

AND MASKING THAT PAIN.

I USED IT AS A COPING MECHANISM

DO THAT FOR A WHILE.

BUT THEN WHEN SOMETHING BIG

LIKE WATCHING I MEAN YOUR MOM'S

DEATH CAME PERIOD OF SUFFERING

AND TIME, HOW DID THAT IMPACT

YOU YOU BIG TIME.

YOU KNOW IF ANYBODY'S EVER

DEALT WITH A CHRONICALLY ILL

SPOUSE OR A CHILD OR A PARENT,

IT TAKES EVERYTHING FROM YOU I

MEAN IT'S FINANCIALLY

RELATIONALLY I MEAN JUST

EVERYTHING AND IT WAS JUST

REALLY HARD GROWING UP IN IN

THIS HOME WHERE, YOU KNOW,

EVERYTHING WAS DOCTOR'S

APPOINTMENTS AND HOSPITAL

VISITS AND WHAT ARE WE GOING TO

HAVE TO CALL 911 THAT NIGHT?

AND SO EVERY DAY WAS A GIFT.

MY PARENTS KNEW ACTUALLY THE

DISEASE WOULD EVENTUALLY TAKE

HER.

THEY CHOSE TO KEEP THAT FOR

ME.

AND SO IN A LOT OF WAYS, YOU

KNOW, MY PARENTS HAD THIS EIGHT

YEAR SPAN TO GRIEVE WHEREAS MY

GRIEF KIND OF RAMMED ME IN THE

FACE.

YEAH.

YEAH.

WELL TALK ABOUT SO YOUR MOM

PASSED WHEN YOU WERE A SENIOR.

YOU GO ON TO COLLEGE AND WHEN

YOU BECOME 21 YOU HEAR ABOUT

THIS CERTIFIED LETTER THAT'S

ARRIVE.

TELL US ABOUT THIS.

SO YEAH, IT WAS FIRST BIRTHDAY

AUGUST 23RD, SIX AND I WAS I

GOT A CALL.

WENT DOWN TO THE CAMPUS MAIL

ROOM.

I PICK IT UP, I OPEN IT UP AND

INSIDE FOR A QUARTER OF

$1,000,000.

AND INHERITANCE FROM MY

MOTHER'S A STRANGE.

AND YEAH, THERE'S A WHOLE LOT

THAT'S A WHOLE NOTHER IT'S A

WHOLE LOT PACKED INTO LOT

PACKED INTO THAT.

AND SO YOU KNOW WHAT HAPPENS

WHEN YOU GIVE A ONE YEAR OLD ON

HER 21ST BIRTHDAY AND IMAGINE A

QUARTER OF DOLLARS YOU KNOW

WHOSE I'M GRIEVING?

I'M I'M USING KIND OF

SUCCESS AND IDENTITY TO THAT'S

WHERE I'M FINDING MY PURPOSE AT

THAT PURPOSE AT THAT TIME AND

SO ONLY DISASTER CAN HAPPEN

FROM THERE.

TWO YEARS LATER LATER YOU

FIND THAT YOU'VE PLOWED THROUGH

THE QUARTER OF $1,000,000 AND

NOT ONLY THAT BUT YOU'RE IN

DEBT.

WHERE DOES THAT LEAVE YOU?

SO YES, LESS YES, LESS THAN

TWO YEARS LATER I HAVE SPENT

EVERY LAST TIME AND I WAS OVER

$36,000 IN CONSUMER CREDIT CARD

DEBT AND A POINT OF FINANCIAL

ROCK BOTTOM AND I FOUND MYSELF

HAVING A PANIC ATTACK ON THE

FLOOR OF MY ROOM BECAUSE I THE

MINIMUM PAYMENTS ON MY BILLS I

COULDN'T I COULDN'T AFFORD I

COULDN'T AFFORD TO EAT AND I

CALLED MY BANK JUST TRYING JUST

TRYING TO GET SOME OF THOSE

OVERDRAFT FEES FORGIVEN.

AND THEN ON THE THE OTHER END

OF THE LINE I HEARD COMPASSION

AND SHE SAID YOU THINK YOUR

YOUR PROBLEMS ARE ACTUALLY A

LOT DEEPER HERE.

AND SO SHE CONNECTED CREDIT

CARD COUNSELING AGENCY AND I

GOT CONNECTED WITH 5 HOURS

THESE WOMEN THESE WOMEN THESE

COMPLETE STRANGERS ONE OF THEM

AND THIS WAS NOT A CHRISTIAN

ORGANIZATION BUT BUT THE WOMAN

ON THE OTHER END OF THE LINE

SHE SAID CAN I PRAY FOR YOU?

AND I DIDN'T KNOW I DIDN'T

KNOW THE LORD I WAS SO FAR FROM

GOD AT THE TIME AND SO SHE DID

AND AND I LEFT THAT

CONVERSATION WHEREAS I'D

STARTED THE DAY WANTING TO TAKE

MY OWN AND I ENDED THE DAY WITH

A GLIMMER OF HOPE THAT I MIGHT

ACTUALLY TO GET OUT OF THE MESS

THAT I CREATED.

YOU KNOW, ME ABOUT YOUR

STORY IS THAT YOU WERE WILLING

TO REACH OUT EVEN EVEN THOUGH

YOU WERE AT THAT DESPERATE

PLACE YOU CALLED THE BANK.

YOU DIDN'T JUST JUST SIT THERE,

YOU KNOW, DOING NOTHING.

SO ULTIMATE ULTIMATE GODLY

IT'S THROUGH CHURCH THAT YOU

FIND.

TALK ABOUT THAT.

YEAH.

SO ABOUT TWO YEARS AFTER THAT,

YOU KNOW, BECAUSE THE THE STORY

GOES AND THE STORY GOES ON.

YOU KNOW, IS ALWAYS A LITTLE

BIT INTERESTING AND YEAH, IN

THE FALL.

YEAH.

IN THE FALL OF 2010 I HAD YOU

KNOW, I'D HIT THAT FINANCIAL

ROCK BOTTOM IN THE SUMMER

BOTTOM IN THE SUMMER OF 2008

BUT IT TOOK A COUPLE MORE YEARS

TO HIT THE SPIRITUAL AND

EMOTIONAL AND EMOTIONAL ROCK

BOTTOM AND I HIT THAT SPIRITUAL

EMOTIONAL ROCK BOTTOM IN THE

FALL OF 2010.

I ASKED THE GUY I WAS KIND OF

ALERT HE'S MY HUSBAND NOW.

I HAD ASKED HIM IF I COULD GO.

I WALKED INTO THAT CHURCH

HOPELESS HOPELESS BUT I HEARD

THE GOSPEL FOR THE VERY FIRST

TIME AND I WALKED OUT OF OUT OF

THAT CHURCH WITH A GLIMMER OF

HOPE AND EVERYTHING CHANGED

FROM THERE AND IT WAS I WENT TO

CHURCH EVERY SINGLE SUNDAY

AFTER THAT BEGAN TITHING AND

SURRENDERING MY FINANCES TO GOD

BECAUSE THE THE VISE GRIP THAT

HAD BEEN HELD ON MY HEART FOR A

REALLY LONG AND GOD JUST BEGAN

THAT SLOW PAINFUL PROCESS AND

AND HE HAS JUST HE'S SO GOOD

AND IT'S AMAZING.

LET'S TALK FOR THE LITTLE

TIME TODAY.

I MEAN IT'S FAR MORE THAN YOU

EVER COULD HAVE EVER COULD HAVE

IMAGINED OR HOPED FOR.

YOU'RE LIVING HAPPILY ON A

FARM.

YOU HAVE YOU HAVE A HUSBAND,

YOU HAVE CHILDREN AND THE WHOLE

STORY HAS TURNED AROUND.

YEAH, YEAH, IT'S TAKEN IT'S

TAKEN WORK AND YOU KNOW, IT'S

NOT THAT ALL OF A SUDDEN I TURN

MY LIFE OVER TO JESUS AND

EVERYTHING WAS JUST EASY.

THAT'S NOT HOW IT WORKS.

WE HAVE WE'RE SKIPPING OVER

A YEAR TO YOU KNOW, THERE'S

PAIN AND SUFFERING BUT ALSO THE

BEAUTY LIFE IS THAT WHEN WE

LIVE LONG ENOUGH LIKE ENOUGH

LIKE WE WILL EXPERIENCE JOY AND

PAIN AND GRIEF AND AND AND

CELEBRATION.

BUT AT THE CORE OF IT IS WHERE

DO WE FIND OUR JOY AND OUR

PEACE.

AND SO SURRENDERING MY LIFE TO

CHRIST REALLY GAVE ME THE

OPPORTUNITY TO TO BUILD A

FOUNDATION ON HIS WORD AND THAT

NO MATTER WHAT HAPPENS AROUND

ME IF I LOSE IT ALL TOMORROW I

STILL I STILL HAVE PEACE

THE ONLY THOUGHT RUNNING

THROUGH DON'S MIND WAS.

HE HAD NO CONTROL OVER HIS

PARAGLIDER PARAGLIDER AND WHEN

IT STRUCK POWER LINES THE WHOLE

WORLD TURNED INTO A BALL OF

FIRE.

THIS IS THE STORY OF HOW DON

LIVED TO TELL ABOUT IT.

WE DIDN'T ANTICIPATE ANY

ISSUES OF LOOK LIKE EVENING FOR

FLYING AND WE WERE JUST LOOKING

FORWARD TO GETTING IN HERDS AND

HIS FRIEND DON SINCLAIR HAD

DONE HAD DONE THIS HUNDREDS OF

TIMES BEFORE PREPPING THEIR

GEAR TO ENJOY AN EVENING AN

EVENING OF POWERED PARAGLIDING.

THINK IT WAS PUSHING 80 DEGREES

AND THE WINDS WERE LIGHT AND IT

WAS A BEAUTIFUL BLUE SKY

EVENING.

DON WHEN HE COULDN'T GET HIS

WING PROPERLY INFLATED HE HAD

TO ABORT.

SO STEVE WITH HIS GOPRO

RECORDING RECORDING TOOK OFF.

HE CIRCLED THE FIELD, THEN FLEW

TO THE RENDEZVOUS SPOT SPOT TO

WAIT FOR DON.

AFTER 10 MINUTES OF NOT

SEEING HIM IN THE AIR AIR I

DECIDED TO TO FLY BACK TO THE

AIRPORT AND CHECK ON HIM.

I SAW HIM INFLATE THE WING

AND BEGIN TO TAKE OFF.

THEN SOMETHING WENT WRONG.

DON WAS TOO LOW AND HEADING

TOWARDS SOME TREES ONE SIDE OF

THE AIRFIELD.

NORMALLY HIS WOULD HAVE ENOUGH

POWER TO CLIMB OUT CLIMB OUT

AND STRAIGHTEN OUT AND THIS

PARTICULAR EVENING IT DIDN'T IT

DIDN'T DON BANGED HARD TO THE

RIGHT AND AVOIDED THE TREES BUT

NOW THE WIND.

NOW THE WIND WAS AT HIS BACK

AND HE WAS PICKING UP SPEED

HEADING STRAIGHT TOWARDS

TOWARDS SOME POWER LINES.

ALL STEVE COULD DO WAS WATCH

.

I THOUGHT HE WAS DEAD.

I LITERALLY WATCHED HIM TURN

INTO A BALL OF FIRE AND I NOT

SURVIVABLE.

IT WAS JUST THE WORST FEELING

I'VE EVER.

IMMEDIATELY STEVE LANDED AT THE

AIRFIELD.

HE GRABBED 911 AS HE RAN ACROSS

THE STREET TO HIS THE STREET TO

HIS FRIEND.

I WAS PRAYING THAT HE WAS

ALIVE.

I REALLY THOUGHT I WATCHED A

HUMAN A HUMAN BEING DIE.

BUT AS HE GOT CLOSER HE

COULDN'T BELIEVE WHAT HE SAW.

DON WAS CONSCIOUS AND, APPEARED

TO BE UNHURT.

IT LOOKED UP AND TALK TO ME

AND I THIS IS A MIRACLE.

INCREDIBLY DON, EVERYTHING

THAT HAPPENED.

AS SOON AS I SAW I WAS GOING

TO HIT THOUGHT THAT WENT

THROUGH MY HEAD IS I'M DEAD SO

I WANT TO HIT THE WHOLE WORLD

TURNED INTO A BALL OF FIRE OF

FIRE AND I WAS JUST WAITING

LITERALLY FOR IT ALL TO COME TO

AN COME TO AN END AND INSTEAD I

HAD THE FEELING OF FALLING AND

NEXT THING I KNEW I WAS ON MY

BACK ON THE GROUND LOOKING UP

AT THE SKY.

I COULDN'T BELIEVE I WAS ALIVE

,HONEST.

AND AS I LAID THERE I SAID

THANK YOU GOD.

I KNEW RIGHT AWAY THE ONLY WAY

I SURVIVED INTERVENTION.

WITHIN MINUTES PARAMEDICS

ARRIVED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF

MICHIGAN HOSPITAL IN ANN ARBOR

IN ANN ARBOR.

MEANWHILE, STEVE CALLED DON'S

WIFE KAREN KAREN.

IT'S LIKE OH, DON IS GOING

TO BE OKAY.

BUT YEAH, A LITTLE ACCIDENT.

AND HE WAS VERY CALM WHICH WAS

VERY GOOD.

STARTED PRAYING AND WAS PRAYING

INSTANTLY FROM THAT POINT.

KAREN DROVE THE MINUTES TO

THE HOSPITAL PRAYING THE WHOLE

WAY.

WHEN SHE ARRIVED SHE LEARNED

DON HAD SECOND AND THIRD DEGREE

BURNS OVER 25 PERCENT OF HIS

BODY.

DEFINITELY THE HOLY SPIRIT

WAS WITH HOLY SPIRIT WAS WITH

ME BECAUSE I DON'T KNOW HOW I

DIDN'T PANIC OR I DIDN'T,

KNOW, HAVE AN ANXIETY ATTACK.

WHEN I FINALLY GOT TO SEE

KAREN, I WAS ELATED TO STILL BE

THERE BE THERE BUT SEEING HER

AND SHARING HER THAT I WAS

GOING TO BE OKAY AND AND THAT

YOU KNOW, I WAS GOING TO MAKE

IT THROUGH IT.

THAT JUST STRENGTHENED OUR BOND

EVEN GREATER.

NOW DON WOULD BEGIN THE LONG

PROCESS OF THAT WOULD START

WITH SKIN GRAFTS.

KAREN PEOPLE TO PRAY FOR HIS

HEALING.

WHEN DON WENT IN FOR SKIN GRAFT

SURGERY, HIS DOCTOR DISCOVERED

.

IT LOOKED LIKE THE SKIN WAS

STARTING WAS STARTING TO HEAL

ITSELF.

THEY WENT AHEAD AND COVERED HIS

BURNT SKIN WITH SKIN WITH

PIGSKIN TO ALLOW IT TO HEAL ON

ITS OWN.

AND MY HEART THAT WASN'T A

SURPRISE.

LITERALLY HUNDREDS OF PEOPLE

SENDING OUT PRAYERS TO ME AND

AND I KNOW THAT THAT WAS PART

OF.

DON SAYS THOSE PRAYERS ALSO

WEEKS THAT FOLLOWED.

I ACTUALLY HAD WAVES THAT

WOULD COURSED THROUGH MY MY

ARMS MY LEGS AND AS I CLOSED MY

EYES EYES AND JUST CONCENTRATED

ON WHAT WAS GOING ON AND THE

IMAGE IMAGE THAT CAME TO ME WAS

THAT THOSE WAVES WERE HANDS

ACTUALLY CRUSHING THOSE WOUNDS.

THAT WERE COURSING THROUGH ME

AND THAT SET ME AT EASE.

JUST TWO WEEKS AFTER THE

ACCIDENT, DON'S DOCTORS WELL

ENOUGH TO GO HOME.

THE SURGEON ME OVER AND HE

SAID YOU'RE HEALING QUICKLY.

I KNOW IT WAS THE PRAYERS DOING

A GOOD JOB BUT I HEALED QUICKER

THAN THEY EXPECTED.

DON WAS SOON BACK TO HIS CHORES

ON THEIR RANCH AND SIX MONTHS

LATER HE HAD MADE A FULL

RECOVERY.

THERE ARE FEW THERE ARE FEW

THAT DON'T AGREE THAT DON'S

SURVIVAL WAS A MIRACLE.

ESPECIALLY CONSIDERING THE

POWER LINES HE HIT WERE 140,000

VOLTS OF ELECTRICITY.

THOSE LINES THE EXPLOSION

KNOCKED THE BREATH OUT OF ME

THE BREATH OUT OF ME HAD I

INHALED THAT SUPERHEATED AIR IT

WOULD HAVE SEARED MY LUNGS.

THE ELECTRICITY THE ELECTRICITY

SURROUNDED ME.

IT SHOULD HAVE GONE THROUGH

ME.

THE ME.

THE GAS DIDN'T IGNITE OR

EXPLODE.

THE BATTERY DIDN'T EXPLODE.

50 FOOT FALL SHOULD BE FATAL.

CAME DOWN MOTOR SIDE FIRST HIT

IT.

COME DOWN FACE FIRST THE £5

ENGINE WOULD HAVE CRUSHED ME.

THE LIST OF WHY I KNOW I'M

BLESSED AND WHY THERE WAS

INTERVENTION IS A LONG LIST.

THERE'S I SHOULD HAVE SURVIVED

THAT.

IT DEFINITELY MY BELIEF IN

PRAYER AND REALIZING HOW

SPECIFIC YOU CAN WHAT YOUR

TROUBLES AND JESUS HANDS YOU'LL

GET THROUGH MUCH BETTER.

YOU'LL HAVE A COMFORT IN YOUR

SOUL IS UNMATCHED BY ANYTHING

ELSE.

YOU CAN FIND COMFORT FOR

YOUR SOUL SOUL.

YOU CAN FIND THAT HE IS YOUR

VERY PRESENT HELP AND TIME OF

TROUBLE.

GOD DOESN'T PROMISE THAT YOU

WON'T DIFFICULTY.

IN FACT JESUS WAS QUITE

SPECIFIC IN THIS WORLD HAVE

TRIBULATION BUT BE OF FOR I

HAVE OVERCOME THE WORLD COMES

BE OF GOOD CHEER.

THAT.

THAT IS SOMETIMES VERY HARD TO

DO PARTICULARLY WHEN YOU'RE IN

IN A BALL OF FIRE.

BUT THAT'S WHAT HE'S ASKING US

TO DO TO DO.

BE OF GOOD CHEER FOR I HAVE

OVERCOME THE WORLD.

THAT THAT MEANS THAT HIM WITH

YOU YOU CAN OVERCOME ANYTHING

DIFFICULTY THAT LIFE THROWS AT

YOU.

YOU THE ASSURANCE THAT HE'S

WITH YOU AND HE WANTS TO BE

WITH HIM.

SO ALL YOU HAVE TO DO.

THAT IS THE KEY.

LOOK.

LOOK TO JESUS THE AUTHOR AND

FINISHER OF YOUR FAITH YOUR

FAITH.

DON'T LOOK TO YOUR PROBLEM.

AND IF YOU KEEP FOCUSED ON ON

THAT PROBLEM, THAT PROBLEM

ISN'T GOING TO SOLVE ITSELF.

BUT IF YOU FOCUS ON THE

SOLUTION AND ASK JESUS WHAT'S

THE OUT?

WHERE DO YOU WANT ME TO GO?

CAN YOUR WORD BE A MY FEET A

LIGHT UNTO MY PATH ME THE WAY.

AND WHEN YOU DO YOU DO THAT

YOU'RE PUTTING YOUR FULL TRUST

IN HIM.

AND THAT PEACE THAT PEACE THAT

PASSES ALL UNDERSTANDING WILL

GUARD YOU.

IT'LL GUARD YOUR HEART YOUR

HEART, IT'LL GUARD YOUR MIND,

IT'LL GUARD YOUR ACTIONS AND IT

WILL LEAD.

IT WILL LEAD YOU THROUGH.
