I'm very tired. I will go to bed very soon.
Until then...
There are way too many things happening currently that are freaking me out. Prophecies coming true around the globe, powerful people deceitfully leading innocent followers into new ageism. Currently I do not want children. I want to fight for my belief, stand up and stand strong. Contend for what I believe in-and encourage those around me who are seeking to find Christ, and those who don't care to start to seek in hopes that they too might find Christ. These look to be like scary times, we need to pray.
Don't get scared. For one thing, these kind of things have been going on forever, God is our protector, we can trust him. Prayer is always important. Live your life to the fullest, stay close to God and you'll be fine.
ReplyDeleteI was having the same thoughts, hun, but as I posted - I had this amazing sermon Sunday morning which just reaffirmed to me how awesome God is and how He is ultimately in control. Nothing happens in this world - for good or for bad without God having absolute control over it. It all happens for a reason.

25"Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more important than food, and the body more important than clothes?
26Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they?
27Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to his life?
28"And why do you worry about clothes? See how the lilies of the field grow. They do not labor or spin.
29Yet I tell you that not even Solomon in all his splendor was dressed like one of these.
30If that is how God clothes the grass of the field, which is here today and tomorrow is thrown into the fire, will he not much more clothe you, O you of little faith?
31So do not worry, saying, 'What shall we eat?' or 'What shall we drink?' or 'What shall we wear?'
32For the pagans run after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them.
33But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.
34Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.

God is still in control - never forget that. Yes, the future is scary, and yes times are getting darker and more frightening - but isn't that a sign of the times as well? That men and the world will become increasingly depraved and it will be harder for Christians. God is still in control, no matter what.
I'm like a broken record player, but it's true.
Place your fears and worries on Him, place your trust in Him and He will give you comfort....
