May 21, 2009 - Forever Is A Long Time

"The Lord is King forever and ever."
(Psalm 10:16)

FOREVER IS A LONG TIME

At the time of this writing I had listened to President Obama's address to the nation as they commemorated his first 100 days in office. He spoke of the incredible challenges the nation and the world was facing but he also said that it was no different for any generation, that we all face challenges and need to meet them head on believing in God and in each other.

Whether there is an imminent pandemic, a world economic crises, global weather disruption, the list can go on, whether you have trouble in your marriage, a wayward child, a serious health predicament, whether you are lonely, emotionally fragile, troubled in your spirit..God is still God.

He has not vacated His throne, the world might seem like it's going to hell in a hand basket, but God is no less in control as He was in the beginning.

We just don't understand His plan; we can get whiffs of it when we spend time in His Word. If you took the time to read or re-read Revelation you will put today's situation in a better light and in some perspective.

I encourage you to draw closer to God when contested with trials and tribulations. You might not understand what is happening but you will be resting in the arms of the One who has it all under control and who loves you.

Rejoice in the Lord Always!
