As we maneuver our way through the Covid-19 events and it's apparent return in intensity, it seems that there are a rash of other obstacles to be overcome. Not only are we in a Presidential election year, but we are reviving many of the racial tensions of the past, sports teams are being harassed again about their team names and are being pressured to come up with less " demeaning" monikers, all the "minorities" are reviving their press for "equal" privileges and our history is about to be "sanitized" by removing the monuments and symbols which were a part of our past, but now must "disappear".
In addition we have friends, family and co-workers facing health issues, surgeries, accidents, violent incidents, financial issues, severe weather, and what seems like more problems than normal. Some people think it's God giving us a wake-up call, others credit satan with renewed attacks on "the faithful, but as a former pastor of ours' used to say, it's just "life doing its thing". We need to stay the course, face each situation head on, pray for God's presence and support in the storm and look to the future with hope and the good things to come.
No one promised us an easy path, and for many of us it has not been easy. But God is still on His throne, in control and not surprised by anything which is going on. The best is yet to come. Believe it............and thank God.....in advance....... for it.
