'Women who are busy bodies instead of Sarah's'
Yet not even Sarah was perfect! she tried to help God out in His work and made a mess of it - she talked her husband into sleeping with her maid, so she could have the baby for her own - then got so jealous of the maid after she bore her husband a son that she banished both mother and son into the wilderness without a care or even a second thought of their welfare,
I'm sorry, but how would you look upon a woman such as that today.
It's a good job that God is abundantly more merciful, patient and forgiving than we all deserve, and 'remembers that we are but dust'
Revival starts in the heart of the individual - that is why we are called to examine ourselves. You are not accountable to God for anyone else - only for yourself.
All I can say about the Lord in my life is; how amazing that the One who knows me best also loves me the most and pours out love and blessings that I do not deserve!
I hope you can say that with all your heart one day, because after reading both your posts I can see you are hurting and bitter. It is true that 'hurting people hurt people' but one thing I've learnt in my tough life is that how you deal with hurt will either make you 'bitter' or 'better'
You say nothing came of the Revival conferences, well I know only eternity will reveal the fruit of those meetings. I do know the impact it has had on my dad, who was one of the speakers and still weeps with joy! also on my friend who told me that the week was life changing for him. For me it was a week I will never forget where God answered personal prayer and has also given me a renewed zeal for life and guidance after the most horrendous two years any person could ever go through.
As I said revival is personal!
