As I sat in my quiet time this weekend, I had questions in my heart that I felt no one could answer.

  • The world is fighting the Corona Virus and the response to the Corona Virus.
  • Two people close to me have gotten the virus, yet I am still more worried about how officials respond to the virus than the virus itself.
  • The news outlets are so biased that they would not dare criticize the agenda that they are pushing.  Who is truly giving us the truth?

So I simply wrote down:

Who Can We Trust?

What Do I Do?

Where Do I Belong?

When Will The Chaos End?

Why Are We Facing All Of This?

As I finished writing the last question, God began to work me over, and my conviction to turn to Him, to trust in Him, and to worship Him became greater than ever.

I also became filled with joy.

I know what He wants me to do.

And though I don’t know the outcome of where I am going, I think it is only fair to say that that is a blessing!  Because knowing the outcome is not only not what we need —- it isn’t what we want either.

John 2:25 says that Jesus withdrew from men because “He knew what was in men … “  In other words, He withdrew from men because He knew that He could find no encouragement there.

I encourage you to do the same.

To draw encouragement from the world right now would be like trying to quench your thirst by eating 5 saltine crackers.  It will leave you longing for more and make the problem worse.

So what are we to do?

What?

At the risk of sounding like a simpleton, I leave you with this.

Colossians 3 23  Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for men

Jesus mentions throughout scripture that we are not to build on things that do not last…

To build our houses on solid ground

To not seek to gain the whole world

To seek Him and His Kingdom above all things

He is the Way

And the Truth

And the Life

And whoever comes to Him shall never be thirsty again … Shall find the living water … Has an entrance into heaven … Will have a home and a place to belong and someone who believes in them

So work hard … And work hard for His glory … For His glory alone.

In The Name of the Father and the 

Son and the Holy Spirit.  Amen.
