God is our refuge and
strength, always ready to help in times of trouble. So we will not fear when earthquakes come and
the mountains crumble into the sea. Psalm 46:1-2
I have thoroughly enjoyed not watching as much television
this summer as we have stayed pretty busy over the past few months. It truly has been refreshing to take a break
from the regularly scheduled ‘junk’ for this and also a nice change of pace not
to hear the foolish bickering of politicians and the constant reaffirmation
that we live in a broken world, which is most evident when watching reality TV
or the news for any amount of time.
It is when we recognize that sin has corrupted this world
that we are no longer surprised or overwhelmed by all of the troubles you see
in the world. You see, God is greater
than any problem or threat that we can ever face in our lifetime.
We must constantly ask God to stay close to us at all
times. Jesus promises us that we will
face certain troubles during our lifetime, but He also promises that to always
comfort us and help us when we are afraid.
