March 6, 2017 –   Seems we are in a famine here, a God famine.  The shelling was very loud into the evening.  Uliana and I sat and talked for a long time, and after retiring, I decided to fervently pray for the ‘noise’ outside.   I thanked God for His continued grace, mercy, iron clad protection; He is a good God, faithful God, and I begged Him to stop the noise,  jam the guns, stop the killing, stop the madness, and the noise immediately Stopped!    It didn’t trail off, it didn’t trickle, it STOPPED.   Shocked, but reassured I praised God, thanking Him for His promises, answered prayer, hearing little ole me.  God just showed up, amazing.   I decided to get some rest,  laying down meditating on ‘what’ just happened.  Dozing off, it wasn’t but about 20 minutes the shelling started again, I immediately popped up from resting, and started to pray again, the same prayer; and the shelling immediately, stopped….and didn’t begin again that night! Thank you Lord!
