These are unusual times. We are back in the throes of a pandemic, our nation seems to be at war with itself over almost everything and there is a general feeling that we need honest and believable leadership in every aspect of our political, business, religious, cultural and media spheres. People are confused, conflicted and distrustful of what we are being told.
Our flag seems to fly at half staff more often to mourn, rather than at full staff to elicit pride and respect. Our mood is more of doubt and discouragement than one of hope and optimism for the future. It just isn't the same when we wake up to face the new day before us. And sometimes when we go to sleep at night we think it might be better to "wake up dead" and be in the presence of the One who holds the key to an eternal future promised in His Inspired Word; His Holy Scripture.
I'm not wishing my time away, or giving up on our country or our ability to make a positive difference in our world, but I pray to God for His direction, His Will to be done and His plan and purpose for each of us to be revealed, realized and lived out for our good and His Glory. In Him we have our being, our redemption, our inheritance, our life, our hope...............in Him we have everything we need. THANK YOU, LORD.
