Tribulation

Dear Friends at Glorian,

I have a request:

My parents decided to hire some advisors because of a heritage issue. Under the direction of these advisors we had a family meeting about two weeks ago, and the next one is planned on the first of December.

Now I have been critically looking at the work these advisors are delivering, and to my opinion they are creating a big mess. I gave my parents this warning to point this out, but I noticed these advisors are exactly saying what my parents want to hear. And when I look what they are doing, then I notice they are very skilled in speaking the language of symbols. But I can tell they teamed up with the other side.

I know I can’t be a prophet in my own city.

Now I am getting ready for this next meeting by preparing questions about their work and the things they missed in order to wake up my other family members. Because I have the impression that the direction our advisors want to lead us, is only meant for tearing our family apart.

But I have to admit I am a little bit afraid. I feel like I am about to fight Goliath. I have reason to believe that the advisors my parents hired, are going to be a bit angry the next time I meet them. And when I think about this, I have to say that I expect that everybody at the table might turn against me when I start to speak my mind.

I expect things comparable like earthquakes, thunderstorms and the whole nine yards.

Indeed I have this wild imagination.

And I hope it won’t be this bad.

I know intellectually that there is no reason to be afraid about anything because satan is the eternal loser. But when I think what I am up to, then I can’t help but notice I am a little bit afraid.

Perhaps this is because I know I am not a Prophet, I am not a King, I am not a Saint and certainly I am no Angel.

And it is true that I don’t have a clue what I am doing.

I like to believe that I am only following directions.

And I sincerely pray that I am not mistaken.

So my request is like this:

I would like to ask for Your blessing. And please stand by me and support me to get through this horrible tribulation.

I know I can’t do this on my own.

And please help me find the right words to speak when I am there, because I really don’t know what to expect.

In order to get ready I am reading ‘Exodus’ a bit, but I have to admit that there are many things in the story which I don’t understand.

So thank You in advance.

And God Bless.
