Troubled Times

Friend, even in these deeply troubling times of human upheaval, human lack, human disease, we should never forget that God is for us, not against us.

It is not He who should be blamed for the consequences of our decisions, that have caused these troubled times.

Yes, it's true, we have brought all this strife upon our heads by not listening to Him; by the reading of His Word.

Our leaders are ungodly men, most of them! 

They do not love the Lord God of All Creation.

They are selfish, and when in the elite position many of us give to them by our vote of confidence; in their ability to protect and care for our safety, they abuse the power and cause obscene problems, not only for humans who are ordinary citizens, but also for other countries and  populations!

Who really knows what deals are struck behind closed doors with our enemies. We are never privy to the Truth, because if we knew, they wouldn't hold their high position for long!

But friend, although it is frightening to think that the whole world may be at war again, we who are believers and those who desire to know God, have a Great Friend and Powerful Protector.

If we are willing to allow Him to have His Will and Law, be our will and law, we will never have to worry; for if we die we will be with Him, and if we live, we will be with Him.

Either way we are under His Protection; death may come, but we will be welcomed into the afterlife with singing and Joy. And we will be able to join in the singing, alive with no pain or worry, in the Kingdom of God.

This is a Promise from God to you. 

We see that, when we gaze upon The Cross.

Jesus the Son of God in the human body of a man, took on the Punishment for all, so that those who would desire to Know God, could have no sin stains on them. 

His Blood washes us clean if we accept Him as our Lord and Saviour.

He is The Creator of mankind and this world, and because all He does is Perfect; it was once Perfect.

Satan His enemy; yet a conquered enemy, has brought sin to our world, and caused it to become thorny and disease ridden, full of rot and decay.

Some people want this! Some people choose this! Many think this is ridiculous and laugh thinking a Good God would not allow any of our problems, therefore, a God does not exist.

God is accepting of their choice for when He created man He gave Him Free Will to reject Him.

Which one are you?
