Anyone who&#8217;s on the housetop must not come down to get what is in his house, and anyone who&#8217;s in the field must not turn back to get his coat. &#8220;How terrible it will be for women who are pregnant or who are nursing babies in those days! Pray that it may not be in winter or on a Sabbath when you flee, because at that time there will be great suffering, the kind that has not happened from the beginning of the world until now and certainly will never happen again. If those days had not been limited, no one would survive. But for the sake of the elect, those days will be limited.<br \/>\n(Mat 24:16-22)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>I hope you&#8217;ll take a few minutes to watch the video in this post and afterward to say a prayer for these people.
