I Can See Clearly now...

I don't often watch the news but with the shootings recently in Moncton, NB and now the oil crises/gas prices, I have been paying a little more attention. I find that watching the news upsets me and makes me feel shaky and uncertain about the future. So how do I live here in this world during times of crises and craziness?

I find that when I spend time at the feet of my Lord, things suddenly come into a very clear and much more peaceful perspective. The bottom line: no matter what, My God is sovereign and in control. This I declare and believe to be true. I know that no matter what kind of craziness is around me, God is right here, beside me. I also know that He continues to move and to work in my life. He doesn't just say, 'baton down the hatches and hold on and wait for it all to end'. He has good things for all of us right here and right now.

Can I encourage you to press into God and His Word? That is our reality. That is what brings peace and allows us to get out of bed every morning with a smile on our lips and a bounce in our steps. 

Let's first look to God and then the world. That way you will start with a more clear view!

p.s. I will be away for awhile - talk to you when I get back!
