“To be nobody but yourself -- in a world which is doing its best, night and day, to make you everybody else -- means to fight the hardest battle which any human being can fight and never stop fighting.” ~ E.E. Cummings
What a joy to sit down with @WesleyLHuff. We talk about doing evangelism and apologetics online, some of the problems with social media, and a host of other things. Check it out 👇
Amid conflicting reports about the fluid Middle East conflict, we’ll get many things wrong. One thing we can’t get wrong is prayer:
That God protects the innocent, comforts the mourners, guides leaders, vindicates the wronged, enlightens ignorance, tenderizes hearts, brings peace to the region, and points all to the Savior
God comes near, ministers to our hearts, and gave up His own life to be with us forever. He is a loving God…and Love itself. He is the answer to all of our desires.

I am a woman from Iran. Let me tell you honestly how women like me see politicians like you in America, women who speak about freedom from the safety of Congress while sympathizing with our killers under Islamic regimes.
You stand next to the American flag, speaking about freedom. Now you launch campaigns saying, “No War With Iran.”
Now I want to introduce you to a brave Iranian woman who understood America better than you ever will.
Her name is Sara Saeidi.
Born and raised in Iran.
39 years old.
A mother of two daughters, 19 and 6.
She was shot in the head for the “crime” of peacefully protesting while wearing a sweatshirt that said MANHATTAN, with the American flag beneath it.
While you stood in Congress under that flag, she carried its name on her chest, not as symbolism for a photo opportunity but as a dream.
Three days after she was killed, her body was returned to her family only after threats and money were taken from them. They were banned from holding a proper funeral. Authorities falsified the circumstances of her death.
That is the regime you refuse to confront clearly.
She wanted the freedom Manhattan represents, the freedom to live without fear, without morality police, without a bullet in her head. The same freedom protected by the Constitution you swore to uphold.
You speak of “No War With Iran,” but you refuse to condemn the war being waged against us, the Iranian people, by the Islamic Republic.
More than 30,000 unarmed civilians have been killed.
Women blinded.
Teenagers hanged.
Mothers executed.
When American lawmakers like you reduce this reality to a partisan talking point, you do the regime’s work for it. Dictatorships thrive when moral clarity disappears and when lawmakers choose ambiguity instead of standing firmly with victims.
You call yourself anti war. But where is your condemnation of the regime’s massacre? Where is your outrage at its war against its own people? You are anti-Iranian women.💔
Peace without justice is surrender.
Your hatred of President Trump appears stronger than your love for America, stronger than your love for Manhattan, for freedom, for women’s rights. That is why you sound sympathetic to the Islamic Republic while remaining silent about women like Sara, like me, and like millions of Iranians who are victims of this barbaric regime.
You celebrating hijab day in Manhattan in beautiful New York and watching women get killed in Iran for not wearing hijab.
I dare you to share the picture of Sara, and say no to the war being wage by Islamist terrorist on us, Iranians.
Calling out ALL INTERNATIONAL MEDICAL & MENTAL HEALTH institutions and organizations to make their way to Syria as SOON as possible-and for all regional actors to ALLOW this-detainees in the thousands are being freed today, some ranging from 10- 40 YEARS in the Assad regime’s dungeons.
They have not seen the light of day in years, they have the worst mental AND medical conditions from skin diseases to tuberculosis to to to.
Please do not fail the Syrian people again, please.

BREAKING Syria's #Assad and his family are in #Moscow after #Russia granted them asylum, say Russian news agencies via @Reuters
Now must press to see Assad brought to justice after the unimaginably horrific crimes he committed against the Syrian people. Still traumatised after interviewing the survivors of his hellish torture & death camps like #Saydnaya while making #BringingAssadToJustice Unless there is accountability
Never Again will remain Yet Again. #EndImpunity #Syria
My thoughts with the families still awaiting to know their loved one’s fate, most of those families they don’t know anything about their loved one since a long time . Hundreds of thousands of prisoners were arrested by the brutal Assad regime. Keep those people in your thoughts and prayers.
#FreeSyria 💚💚
