When the world feels like a beehive that someone kicked into…
When we see hundreds of thousands dying from a disease…
When we realize that several competing powers are trying to use this to dominate the world…
When the News pushes violence, hatred, destruction in front of our eyes…
When our family becomes a battleground of clashing political views…
When we fall into a deep, dark well of uncertainty and find hopelessness at the bottom…
The one thing we can know for sure is that STILL God is in control!
I waited patiently for the Lord; he turned to me and heard my cry. He lifted me out of the slimy pit, out of the mud and mire he set my feet on a rock and gave me a firm place to stand. He put a new song in my mouth, a hymn of praise to our God. Many will see and fear the Lord and put their trust in him.
Psalm 40:1-3
I prayed to the Lord, and he answered me; he freed me from all my fears.
Psalm 34:4
Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you.

He will wipe away all tears from their eyes. There will be no more death, no more grief or crying or pain. The old things have disappeared.

But those who trust in the Lord for help will find their strength renewed. They will rise on wings like eagles; they will run and not get weary; they will walk and not grow weak.
Isaiah 40:31
So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.
Isaiah 41:10
Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid. – John 14:27
