Good morning, blog readers, from sunny and cool (40 degrees) Wisconsin where. on my morning walk, I saw: 30 robins, 9 red-winged blackbirds, 6 doves, 2 geese + their babies, a crane and a red cardinal! Thank You, Jesus!

When I think of “allergy season,” I think of our daughter, Laura, who, at this time of the year, along with countless others, suffer miserably with allergies. Please pray for her and all the “allergy sufferers” to “draw near with confidence to the throne of grace, so that we (they) “may receive mercy and find grace to help in their time of need (Hebrews 4:16).”Blessings, Doug (5/8/25)

Good morning, blog readers, from partly sunny/cloudy (48 degrees) Wisconsin where, on my morning walk, I saw: 26 robins, 6 geese, 6 red-winged blackbirds, 5 doves, 2 ducks, a bunny, a crow and 2 dogs! Thank You, Jesus!

I just received a notice telling me that “The jetpack-blaze plugin has encountered an error and cannot be rendered.” I have no idea what that means. Any ideas? Praying you will get this and/or help me to understand what this means.

P. S. This morning, I read from my Mom’s Bible: “The Holy Bible Containing the Old and New Testaments Translated Out Of the Original Tongues and with the former Translations diligently compared and revised, by His Majesty’s special command, appointed to be read in Churches.” How cool was that! Thank You, Lord, for my Mom and all the moms past and present!

And, if you are still not a believer in Jesus, please become one today by agreeing with God you are a sinner who needs a Savior Who is Jesus (Romans 3:23, 24) and believe He died on a cross for your sins, was buried and raised from the dead (I Corinthians 15:1-4) to forgive all your sins and give you eternal life (John 3:16). And, if you do, I’ll see you in heaven! Love in Christ, Doug (5/6/25)

Good morning, blog readers, from cloudy and cool (42 degrees) Wisconsin where, on my morning walk, I heard 20+ robins singing God’s praises plus the horn of a freight train and a plane!

This article, from yesterday’s IsraelAM, reminded me of the prophecy of Isaiah 17:1 where the prophet wrote: “The oracle concerning Damascus. Behold, Damascus is about to be removed from being a city and will become a fallen ruin.”

So, you might ask, “what’s the big deal?” Israel and her enemies, including the Huthis, have been firing missiles at each other for years without Damascus being totally destroyed. Well, yesterday, the Huthis fired 2 ballistic missiles at Israel from Yemen. And, as of this writing, Israel has yet to respond against the Huthis So, stay tuned, and watch for a response from Israel and then a response from the Huthis which could lead to an all-out war and, maybe, even the fulfillment of Bible prophecy. As Jesus said to His disciples in Mark 13:33, 35, 37: “keep on the alert.”

And, if you are not a believer in Jesus, why not become one today by agreeing with God you are a sinner who needs a Savior Who is Jesus (Romans 3:23, 24) and believe He died on a cross for your sins, was buried and raised from the dead (I Corinthians 15:1-4) to forgive all your sins and give you eternal life (John 3:16). And, if you do, I’ll see you in heaven. Love, Doug (5/3/25)

Good morning, blog readers, from cloudy and cool (41 degrees) Wisconsin where, on my morning walk in a mist, I saw: 13 robins, 11 deer, 2 ducks, a bunny, a crane, and a dove! Thank You, Jesus!

This headline, from yesterday’s Technocracy News and Trends, literally “caught my eye!” Patrick Wood reported: “Sam Altman Launches Dystopian Iris Scanning Orb in the U.S.”

Now, if you’re like me, you would ask: “What does that mean?” Wood reported: “Sam Altman’s creepy Iris-scanning orbs have come to the United States. His goal is to scan every eyeball on Earth. Already, there are 160 countries around the world that are signing up over 170,000 people per week. Altman’s company changed its name to WORLD.ORG to offer a comprehensive ecosystem of World ID, WorldApp, WorldChain, and WorldCoin (and World Social?). Based on human identity (no bots allowed), you can now understand why Altman recently announced that he is creating a new Open AI social network to compete with Musk’s X. Nobody in media has connected the dots here, but it is plain as day to me. X is saturated with with bots, OpenAI social network will be verified humans. Question: “Will Americans take to having their eyeballs scanned? Yes, especially the younger generations who see the goodies like free crypto, cool social network, access to other services, etc.”

The apostle Peter warned us, in I Peter 5:8, saying: “Be alert, be on the watch! Your enemy, the devil, roams around like a lion, looking for someone to devour. Be firm in your faith and resist him, because you know your fellow believers in all the world are going through the same kind of sufferings. But after you have suffered for a little while, the God of all grace, who calls you to share His eternal glory in union with Christ, will Himself perfect you and give you firmness, strength and a sure foundation. To Him be the power forever! Amen.

Yes, dearly beloved in Christ, He is coming and the devil is near. So, don’t believe his lies, but stand tall for Jesus Who is “the Way, the Truth and the Life (John 14:6). Company coming! Got to go! Love in Christ, Doug (5/2/25)

And, if you are not a believer in Jesus, why not become one today, right now, by agreeing with God you are a sinner who needs a Savior Who is Jesus (Romans 3:23, 24) and believe He died on a cross for your sins, was buried and raised from the dead (I Corinthians 15:1-4) to forgive all your sins and give you eternal life (John 3:16).

Good afternoon, blog readers, from sunny, windy and warm (73 degrees) Wisconsin where, on my morning walk, I saw: 3 deer and heard about 20 robins singing God’s praises! Thank You, Jesus!

This headline, from Technocracy News and Trends Commissioner, Eric Schmidt, got my attention: “Trilateral Commissioner Warns That AI is About to Escape Human control!”

Consider the source: Eric Schmidt is heir apparent to the late Henry Kissinger, who was a founding member of the Trilateral Commission in 1973 along with David Rockefeller and Zbigniew Brezinski. Personally I think that AGI is already achieved and will be generally available by year-end 2025, according to Patrick Wood, Editor

Artificial Intelligence keeps getting smarter – and soon, warns former Google Executive CEO During a talk at a recent summit co-hosted by Schmidt’s think tank, the Special Competitive Studies Project, the former Google head predicted that within “three to five years,” researchers will crack the case on so-called artificial general intelligence, or human-level AI. After that, Schmidt suggested, all bets are off.”

Now, personally, I have no idea what all of this AI stuff means other than what Peter warned us about in I Peter 3: 8 that Satan is prowling around like a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour. ” Peter’s responded: “Be of sober spirit, be on the alert. But resist him, the devil), firm in your faith.”

So, let me ask you: “Do you know Jesus as your Savior and Lord?” Do you believe that He died on a cross for your sins, was buried and raised from the dead (I Corinthians 15:1-4) to forgive all your sins and give you eternal life (John 3:16)? If you do, “I’ll see you in heaven. Love, Doug (4/28/25)

Good morning, blog readers. from cloudy, windy and cool (44 degrees) Wisconsin where, on my morning walk, I heard 20+ robins singing God’s praises! Thank You, Jesus!

This headline from Technocracy News and Trends is real scary: “Become Cyborgs, Chip Your Children, Implant Brain Chips.”

In the article, via Gateway Pundit, Alicia Powe wrote: “Even five yeas ago would have been blasted as a “conspiracy theory,” but now Klaus Schwab and the World Economic Forum are saying it right in your face. When they talk about “The Future We want, they mean the future They Want, i.e., only Transhumans need to apply.”

So sad. And yet, so prophetic, as man tries to become more like God and will until he or she attains divinity. So, let us continue to “fix our eyes on Jesus (Hebrews 12:2 until He comes. Love, Doug (4/25/25)

Good morning, blog readers, from cloudy and cool (57 degrees) Wisconsin where, on my morning walk, I saw: bunnies, ducks, geese and 20+ robins!

This headline grabbed my attention this morning: “Trilateral Commissioner Eric Schmidt Warns That AI Is About to Escape Human Control.”

In the article, Noor Al-Sibai, via Futurism, wrote: “Artificial Intelligence keeps getting smarter – and soon, warns former Google CEO Erick Schmidt, it won’t take orders from us anymore. predicted that, within “three to five years

During a talk at a recent summit co-hosted by Schmidt’s think-tank, the Special Competitive Studies Project, the former Google head predicted that within ‘three to five’ years, ‘researchers will crack the case on so-called artificial general intelligence, or human-level AI.” After that, Schmidt suggested, all bets are off.”

Scary stuff, right out of the Book of Revelation and the coming of the “beast/antichrist” who, according Revelation, will rule over the world for a season until Jesus returns to defeat him and cast him and his cronies into hell for eternity. Glory to God!

So, “stay on the alert,” as Jesus told His disciples, in Mark 13:33, 35, 37) and keep watching, waiting, working, witnessing for, walking with and worshiping Jesus until He comes. And, if you are still not a believer in Jesus, please, before it is too late, agree with God you are a sinner who needs a Savior Who is Jesus (Romans 3:23, 24) and believe He died on a cross for your sins, was buried and raised from the dead (I Corinthians 15:1-4) to forgive all your sins and give you eternal life (John 3:16). And, if you do, I’ll see you in heaven! Looking forward to seeing you there. Love in Christ, Doug (4/24/25)

Good morning, blog readers, from cloudy and cool (48 degrees) Wisconsin where, on my morning walk, I heard 36 robins and a cardinal. Thank You, Jesus! This recent headline, from Live Science, got my attention this morning: “A mysterious, 100-year solar cycle may have just restarted – and it could mean decades of dangerous space weather.” And Jesus said, in Luke 21:25: “And there will be signs in the sun, the moon and the stars.”

And, speaking of “signs,” there was a lot of earthquake activity over the last 24 hours with a “strong” (6.2) quake in Turkey, followed by a “moderate” (5.0) quake. Then, there were 5 other “moderate” quakes in Vanuatu, Tonga, Papua New Guinea and 2 “light” (4.5 and 4.0 quakes in Turkey. Perhaps another “sign” leading up to Jesus’ return., as He said in Luke 21:11.

Harry Baker reported: “New research suggests that the unexpected activity of the ongoing solar maximum may be partly tied to a lesser-known, 100-year solar cycle. If true, solar activity could spike further in the coming decades.” So, dearly beloved, keep watching, waiting, working, witnessing for, walking with and worshiping Jesus until He comes. Love in Christ, Doug (4/23/25)
