Long Time Gone



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 been spinning vinyl records most of my free time this summer and just haven't found anything on TV that has captured my attention. It has been refreshing to take a break from the regularly scheduled ‘junk’ and also a nice change of pace not to hear the foolish bickering of politicians and reality celebrities reaffirm that we live in a broken world, which is most evident when watching the tube or flat-screen 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.
