The political wranglings going on in Washington these days are exhausting. What’s true? Where have our traditional values gone? Who’s right? Is this all we’ve got to look forward to for the foreseeable future? STOP IT!
There IS a God in heaven Who will judge it all. He doesn’t always pay on Fridays, but He ALWAYS PAYS! God knows what’s really happening, and He will set everything straight. This is the hope we have for our futures, for our children. The only safe political posture to take is, “God is in control.”
Each of us needs to keep our personal integrity and do what’s right. It will all boil down to that anyway. The words to a popular gospel song read:
Troublesome times are here, filling men’s hearts with fear
Freedom we all hold dear now is at stake
Humbling your hearts to God saves from the chastening rod
Seek the way pilgrims trod, Christians awake
Freedom we all hold dear now is at stake
Humbling your hearts to God saves from the chastening rod
Seek the way pilgrims trod, Christians awake
Jesus is coming soon, morning or night or noon
Many will meet their doom, trumpets will sound
All of the dead shall rise, righteous meet in the skies
Going where no one dies, heavenward bound.
Many will meet their doom, trumpets will sound
All of the dead shall rise, righteous meet in the skies
Going where no one dies, heavenward bound.
READ/HEAR: Ps. 96-98
