He has a plan for us. The Lord will look after us. We are safe with Him.
She said despite their attitude, they didn't stoop to their level and they were kind.
I have heard this from my other children who are nurses. They've noticed an increase in cruelty from some patients in the hospital. They say at times they are called vicious names and are treated nasty as they are only trying to help them. It seems cruelty from some people is at an all-time high.
But, then they take care of some who are so sweet and it helps to make up for it. It helps them keep going.
In talking with my daughter, who just returned from a vacation trip with her wonderful husband and four beautiful children, she commented how they found that they sometimes ran into people who were extremely rude. They did not even know these people, but it was obvious to them, that they were being targeted for no good reason.

I told my daughter that remember... the time is at hand whereby the sheep will be separated from the goats. There is a dividing line and it is becoming more and more obvious which side people are on. As the darkness becomes even darker, those who belong to Jesus will become brighter. Just like a candle burns brightest when it is darkest.
I randomly opened Every Day In His Presence (Charles F. Stanley) to Eagle-Like Focus, pg. 162 ...
"Seeking and obeying God can be difficult especially in a world that is often adversarial to believers. So when you're tired of the battles and just want some peace what do you do? Do you give in? Compromise? Or, do you find your strength in your Creator?
"Scripture is clear, if you want to soar, you must take your eyes off of what everyone else is doing and focus on the Father." End
And then this from "Mornings With The Holy Spirit" pg. 68...
"Follow Me, I know the way to your strong tower, I will lead you to the place of peace and protection in the midst of the storm, so follow Me. I will lead you and guide you into truth and into safety."Father will keep you in the shadow of His wings, and Jesus will lead you into triumph.
"Follow Me as I exalt Christ in your heart and in your life. We are on your side. No foe can withstand Our power. Just focus on Us and our love for you. You cannot fail." End
There is so much going on in the world right now that it is easy to be distracted all the day long, if we allow ourselves. It takes continual effort to refocus our minds and return our attention back on Jesus.
I encourage my family that despite how we are treated, to continue to take the high road, for that is the Highway to Heaven.
The world seems to be growing more dangerous by the day. However, our Heavenly Father loves us. He will protect us. He said so, and so He will.
Trust in the Lord Jesus.
"Those who wait for the Lord will gain new strength;
they will mount up with wings like eagles."
Isaiah 40:31
