The Amygdala, the primitive "Lizard Brain" portion that keeps you alive. It is entirely self-centered (in a good way, as you need SOME portion of your brain to put yourself first. If YOU'RE dead, you can't help anyone else.)
It's the Amygdala that tells you "Hold up. I'm not going to walk down this street. I don't know why, but I'm not going to," before you turn around. It's the Amygdala that makes you suddenly burst into a sprint while walking home at night. It's the Amygdala that has you walking to the bathroom in your empty house, and you slip a knife into your pocket as you pass through the kitchen.
It's not always right. It doesn't have to always be right. It only has to be right the one time that it might count.
I don't know what's going on right now. There's multiple layers of sinister stuff going on. There's actually many factions, all playing against each other. All but ONE of them are the puppets of the Devil Himself, and he doesn't care who wins.
But there is ONE faction, whether that faction knows it or not, who is working according to the Will and the Plan of Christ the King of Kings. And His Will shall be done. In the meantime, it might get very, very rough. "Lord, care you not that we perish?!" the Apostles accused Him, as he slept through the storm. It's not that He didn't care. It's that the storm served HIM.
All I can say to everyone here is to keep faith, ride out the storm, and listen to that little portion of your brain that God gave you that says "This is a dangerous time. Lie in wait. Narrow your eyes and watch. Predators are around. Stay safe. Stay alive. Wait for the Time."

Yep. God’s got this. But his plan may involve a lot more suffering.
