Wall of fire!

There was some protesting and blocking of roads by what it seems the entire town where I live, angry residents rampaged because of the killing of one of their beloved gangsters. Funny, how people rally together to do wrong now - it seems like demons are in their midst just boosting them up to do wrong. They burned down a court house, torched vehicles, and even shot and killed the care taker of the court house, I think he was around 70 yrs old or so. In the night when everybody was trying to get home or already home in fear of attacks my grandmother called me to pick her up from nightly service at the church. I was driving really fast to get her and get back home before anything new happens. As I was speeding on the road to get her I ran into a wall of fire - the road was blocked entirely by debrees burning at nearly 10 ft. high. I saw a taxi try to manuveur around it but was quickly accosted by three men. Then and there I knew I had to turn back, I did and had to take a long route around the main roads to reach the church for my grandmother. I wasn't afraid - although it was just me and my car on the road at the time, from what I have been reading in the Bible I expect to see increase in violence, crime, wars, etc. I believe the Bible and the increase of these things are predicted in it, especially in Mattew 24. The most I can do is try and keep a firm footing in what I believe and most importantly in the promises of Jesus Christ. The increase in natural disasters and crime and violence is everywhere. If it's not one it's the other, by God's grace I will not live in fear but in watchfulness of His second return because I know He cares.
