Oh, my dear Sherry!!! I am so sorry that you are in this place at this time. I hope Church went ever so much better than expected this morning. Not just "hope"...I'm confident that it did!!! Christians are still alive and vibrant and (somewhat) unified despite the state of the world! Jesus is the same, yesterday, today, and tomorrow, and God has weathered even more barbaric and immoral times, and He believes in us even more than we believe in Him! Keep your eyes focused exclusively on Him, and look "neither to the left nor to the right"; HE is our goal and His promise is still ours to claim, no matter the state of the world. Besides, He IS the miracle worker, and He loves to surprise His children.
