World going bonkers as we read the news.  Our prayers and thoughts are for the displaced Christians, Yazidis and minorities in Iraq.  May God protect them and give them strength to endure, cover them with His grace and send His angels to watch over them, let it be cloud by day and fire by night.  I pray for the peace of Jerusalem and let His peace that is beyond our understanding will fall on every person like dews in the morning.  I feel like destruction, destruction is what sounding out there.. is it destruction or destraction..? suddenly...

Good morning Nadita, just getting back from Toronto and catching up with your Spin. I hope soon that the ISIS scenario comes to an end so they can move forward with a more urgent pace. I can't imagine living under those fears and terms but I do wish they live in peace and harmony. I/we want this thing to be finalized but as long as we keep grounded and our head in the game, hopefully things will unfold in our favor. Great Spin and thank you so much.

[ReinMan]

Notice how we're not hearing any complaints from warmonger McCain......
