FJWL_01:76
         I have allowed this time of testing in your life, even though at times it seems to you to be unfair and unjust and too difficult to bear. But know and understand that in Me you will find the strength you need to carry on. After you have suffered for a while and passed through this Jordan of breaking and testing, this trial of your faith, you will enter a glorious Promised Land, and your life and the lives of your children will once again be filled with joy and love! At that time, you will see these Words and promises which I have given to you fulfilled in full, and you will know that I have not lied, but My promises are true.
         So do not cast away your confidence in Me. Do not let the Devil steal your Halloween Wheel of power by falling into discouragement and despair. Continue to trust Me, and see My hand and My love even in the smallest things of your life--in the supply of every small need, in the keeping of your health and strength, in the keeping of the safety of your children in a dark, dark land. These are tokens of My love to you. Your children's love for you is a manifestation of My love for you, and the brethren's care and concern for you is a manifestation of My love for you. And these Words for you are a manifestation of My love for you.
         So do not be fearful of what the future holds, for there is a light at the end of the tunnel. There is a rainbow at the end of the storm and a pot of gold awaiting you--the pure gold of God's promises fulfilled in your life.
