I saw a version of that many many years ago about thirty but of course it read a little different because no one knew of Bush then

What does the Heavenly father have to do with presidents? I'm still waiting for the peace to happen. Even those that turn their lives to Jesus still experience suffering here on Earth, whether it be physical, mental, or emotional. The same goes for peace happiness and freedom. You may have it spiritually, but here on Earth it's another story.
Sure, you may not suffer spiritually but the suffering is still there for other things.

Amen
As the bible tells us there will be wars upon wars.
those woh believe and except jesus as Lord will dwell in peace, hapiness, and freedom when we gt to heaven. We can also experience this when we give our life over to Christ and die to ourselves and turn our life to Jesus.
Again Amen
