I have pondered a lot over the happenings in our world lately. It seems that the whole world is “on fire” and no one is interested in putting the fire out. Protests all over the U.S., civil unrest over government agents doing what they were hired to do, and general disharmony throughout the world. So, what exactly is happening? I venture to say that Christ’s coming is ever closer and these events are part of getting us ready. Am I a prophet foretelling the coming of Jesus? No, of course not! I am just pointing out that we need to be ready whenever He comes back and, for me, looking at world events, the sooner the better. But He is waiting until the Father tells Him to “go” and we are waiting, too. In our time of patience or impatience, depending on the day and the events therein, we are to continue praying, working, and doing. The world’s events do not change what God has asked us to do.
I have said for a while now that the United States, along with most, if not all, nations, have lost their moral compass. For me, my moral compass is God and His Word. Denison’s Forum has an interesting perspective on the situation in our nation and the world, so I am presenting that here for you to read. Scroll down until you reach the section about the resignation of Brooks and then keep reading. Parts of this were eye-opening to me while others just made me nod my head in agreement, saying, “Yes, that is what is needed.”
I want to end my blog today with a reminder that no matter what is happening, God is there and He is always faithful.
