members and especially for the warm welcome.
I have been living in S.E. Arizona, where the Lord literally
transplanted me on the 2nd day of 1987, in the national forest of all
places. It has been a struggle that I would not wish on my worst
enemy, and there is no shortage of them here, since I arrived. I have
been trying to be faithful in the midst of a very wicked and hateful
environment, since I moved into town, a small ex-mining town. I have
been shot at twice, physically threatened as recently as TODAY by my
new and very wicked neighbor, who did so after I resisted letting him
try to swindle me out of my property that basically represents my life
savings. I have learned the hard way that when you truly become a
threat to the "enemy" by devoting your life totally to the Lord, he
can be relentless at times. Most of the people that I have told my
story to have either thought that I was crazy, a liar or somewhere in
between.
Other than a small personal blog at the Salem Network group of sites,
this is the first Christian online group that I have joined, except
that within one day I also joined "Prayers Online".
I will do my best to pray for as many as possible in the midst of this
craziness that The Lord has placed me in. I also ask that as many as
read this please try to pray for me also. I will have to stop for now
because the tears are making it hard to see the keys.
Thank you again
David
