As the saying goes “garbage in, garbage out.” Saved souls say “gospel in, praising Jesus out.”
As temporary earth, society and hopelessness sink, the eternal truth of God is alive in the Bible.
However, most of the surrounding eyes, hearts and minds are occupied penetrating the screen of a small, thin handheld rectangular box. Are the things of God being seen, focused on and absorbed?
Does their palm hold the truth about eternal life in heaven or hell?
Clicking on the world of personal entertainment contends with growing, alarming challenges of earths darkening world events. Another search can bring never ending comfort in the Messiah. One click shows short-lived lies of pleasure with coming chaos, another click fortifies faith and peace.
What you read in your palm matters. What divides or enhances your attention span really counts.
Sins penetrating corrosion of America continues and daily pain deepens from a thousand cuts. One day God will judge each person for receiving or rejecting the Savior, Christ Jesus. He alone paid your penalty.
Talk of uniting with sound bites of ‘coming together’ and what once made America great, is just as empty as a glass of spilt milk. God alone made America great.
With the loss of unity in true obedience in following Christ our Sovereign God, the un-united states are a growing mess of disunity. False and wrongly compromised professions of faith in a self-made god of choosing are strewn in all directions.
The majority is feeling a false longing for what America could be, BUT, without Jesus. While remorse is felt for what we have become, without Jesus. Sin has consequences as America suffers.
Life and times are being towed along from sunup to sundown. The majority live with worry and the few live-in anticipations of the return of Christ for His believers.
Matthew 7:13-14 “Enter by the narrow gate; for wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and there are many who go in by it. 14 Because[a] narrow is the gate and difficult is the way which leads to life, and there are few who find it.”
1 Thessalonians 4:16-17 For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of an archangel, and with the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first. 17 Then we who are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And thus we shall always be with the Lord.
Where is God, the highest of thoughts, how far is the last thought of Him?
Time passes all people as hostile settings, circumstances, sights, sounds and emotions accompany daily life without hope of heaven.
The word of God teaches in John 15:5 “I am the vine, you are the branches. He who abides in Me, and I in him, bears much fruit; for without Me you can do nothing.”
1 Timothy 6:6 Now godliness with contentment is great gain.
Who, what, where, how and why will peace penetrate the mind? The answer is Jesus.
John 14:27 “Peace I leave with you, My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.”
James 4:8 Draw near to God and He will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners; and purify your hearts, you double-minded.
James 4:10 Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and He will lift you up.
John 14:6 Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.
Romans 3:23 23 for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God,
Romans 6:18 And having been set free from sin, you became slaves of righteousness.
Colossians 3:2 Set your mind on things above, not on things on the earth.
As the clouds darken, peace is found in humble hearts seeking God the Son first and foremost.
Jesus saves souls from hell and gives eternal hope of heaven while we wait for Him in obedience.
