A Wobbly World?

The headlines on the news and the hosts on talk radio reiterate the same theme: instability. With the economy facing troubles it hasn't seen possibly since the Great Depression, worry about what's ahead for the average American is no foreign idea. It seems everywhere, friends and neighbors are losing their jobs. Others are experiencing unbelievably vast financial loses. In searching for anything certain these days, it seems the only consolation lies in the timeless Word of God. What a blessing to know that this Word has seen far many years than I have and has stood firm amongst the craziest storms in history.

"When the earth totters, and all its inhabitants, it is I who keep steady its pillars." (Ps. 75:3)


Frankly, I'm young and inexperienced. I can't even grasp what these trying circumstances mean for some. One thing I do know, though: hard times come. And hard times go. But above all, our Sovereign King of the Universe is ultimately in charge and has lots of experience at his job. Take comfort; we're in good hands.
