Good day children, More thoughts on God.
God sent us a love letter; we call it the Bible. It is a very unique love letter, in that it proposes to contain all the guidance you will need to live a good life. A godly life. Now a good life and a Godly life does not mean an easy life. There will be hardships and suffering and pain. When your father died so early it was a huge impact on all of us, you as his children, your mother as his wife, and Grandma and I as his parents. So how do we get through these hard times? Love God and love each other. Pray and trust God to be with us and provide the guidance we need to get through these situations. One of God’s instructions to us is to: “FEAR NOT.” He is God, He can provide for us, in every way, with love, with favor, with resources. As He told Joshua fear not, have faith, He tells us the same. He even cares for the sparrows. So Fear Not!
With a major midterm election this coming week the political
machines have been in high gear for the last couple of months. There is way too much fear being sent out by
these organizations. I agree with the
conservatives who are disgusted with the current state of the USA under this
liberal democratic government and wish to see major changes, but we survived the
Clinton and Obama governments, this one too will pass. The liberal organizations are pushing fear of
almost everything. Fear of the
conservatives, fear of climate change, fear of using fossil fuels and private cars
and houses, fear of covid, fear of Trump, fear of the police (unless they want
their house protected), fear of guns (again unless they want their house
protected), and it goes on and on. Fear
of going to school in a building named after a president that at one time owned
a slave, and all the other woke nonsense.
And while all of those are real issues to those who believe in
them and focus on them, I believe that FEAR is one of the principalities and powers
that God warns us about. FEAR NOT, is
not just about occasional thoughts, but about letting this evil spirit of fear
take up residency in our minds. So FEAR
NOT! Look, listen, read this love letter,
and pray to our God. Then pray some
more, go out and Vote, and talk to your friends and neighbors and tell them why
you are not afraid. Because we believe in
a good GOD. And he knows what is best for
us.
And remember even when we are surprised, God is not, and He is
thinking of you, personally.
