I first laid eyes on my husband when I was 22 years old. Our eyes locked for just a moment, but the connection had been made.

It was a gray, chilly morning with soft, intermittent rain falling, which cleared to a blustery, cold, sunny afternoon as we visited the ancient walled city of Chester in England. This place was settled by the Romans over 2000 years ago as an outpost in the British Isles.
You will soon become familiar with Tirhakah. He was a mighty Egyptian pharaoh – a historic King of the South embroiled in incessant war with a historic King of the North. Tirhakah will again become famous largely because Will Smith (of "Men in Black", "Ali" and "Hitch" fame) intends to star in a movie "of epic proportions" about him. But students of prophecy...
