Open Question: How does Jesus feel about the world right now?
My heart is rent inside Me over the hardness of men’s hearts! As My face fills with the heat of My fury, My eyes are set ablaze with fire, over that which I see!… My tears run down, My blood pours down.
As My own servants turn from Me and run…
As My own beloved, whom I have called sons and daughters,
Turn and fight against Me…
As My own body betrays Me…
My blood pours down, My tears run down.
As the nations come together, and bind My hands and My feet, My tears run down. As they bruise Me and spit in My eyes, while mocking Me, My tears run down. As they pierce My side, My blood and tears run down together! As My own people drive in the nails still, I am risen up from My place with My arms spread apart, waiting to receive them… My blood runs down, the tears run down.
OH MY PEOPLE!…
WHY HAVE YOU FORSAKEN ME?!
Hard generation! Sleeping children! Even My own fall asleep, unable to watch with Me for one hour… Their hearts hardened, unwilling to weep with Me in this last hour…
Do you not understand My sorrows, little flock?… They refuse to be healed! Therefore I must destroy them! My blood runs down, and they refuse it! My tears fall like rain upon the nations, yet they will not lift their head, nor do they hold out their tongue to drink it!… Where have all My children gone?!
They choose death!…
They choose death!…
And at the last day, they shall surely receive it!…
They shall taste of it to the fullest! Therefore do My tears run down! Therefore do the rivers run like death through the waste places! Beloved, they heap up death, only to throw themselves upon the heap! Lo, they have made their covenant with death, and with the grave they are in agreement! They burn candles and make sacrifices to other gods! Yea, they bow down to them!… Behold, they shall be slaughtered and burned together!
The whole field is diseased! Every leaf is blighted and withers, every stalk is rotten even to the roots!… It must be purged and burned with fire! Therefore do My tears run down, therefore does My sorrow continue on, forever.
The wound is incurable!…
Therefore My love will weep and My heart will wail, forever.
Have you not read My words, little flock?! Are your ears yet dull in hearing?!… Yet My words shall not return void…
For the beasts of the earth languish, and the creatures of flight fail to soar, for they know what is coming. Lo, I have nourished and brought forth young children to weep in your places, for you were unwilling.
And still the mighty stand proud, and the feeble follow close behind in their example, refusing to bow down… Covering themselves in pretense, while wearing many disguises… Until the face they behold in the mirror has become unrecognizable to them… THEY DO NOT KNOW ME!
My blood runs down, yet I do not know them! My tears run down, yet My own people remain unclean, hiding always in their deceitful houses! From the least to the greatest, I tell you, they have surely hated Me! Therefore, I am come down, to take My spoil, to purge and to slaughter!… Blood and fire!… Rivers of blood and pillars of smoke!
This world is condemned, and The Father has declared its end!…
I AM COME DOWN!…
Says The Lord.

Excessive daytime sleepiness and vascular events: The Three City Study.

OBJECTIVE: We assessed whether excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS) at baseline was associated with subsequent coronary heart disease (CHD) and stroke events. METHODS: The Three City Study, a French population-based multicenter prospective study, included 7,007 subjects aged ≥65 years with no personal history of CHD, stroke, or dementia, and self-rated EDS as never, rare, regular, or frequent in response to a face-to-face questionnaire. Hazard ratios (HRs) for the first episode of stroke and CHD over 6 years were estimated using a Cox proportional hazards model with age as the time scale. RESULTS: The mean age of the cohort was 73.7 years (standard deviation, 5.37), 63% were women, and 13.3% and 4.3% reported regular and frequent EDS, respectively. After a median follow-up period of 5.1 years, 372 subjects experienced a first event, either stroke (122 subjects) or a CHD event (250 subjects). The increased risk of CHD and stroke was confined to the group with frequent EDS, and was 1.73× as much as in the group that reported never having EDS (HR, 1.73; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.15-2.60), after adjustment for confounding and mediating factors. This association was seen in those without hypertension but not in those with hypertension at baseline (p for interaction = 0.01). Moreover, the association with frequent EDS was statistically significant for stroke (HR, 2.10; 95% CI, 1.13-3.89) but not for CHD (HR, 1.51; 95% CI, 0.87-2.61). INTERPRETATION: The current study suggests that frequent EDS is independently associated with future vascular events and stroke in particular in healthy community-dwelling elderly subjects.
