Crisis


Turn us again
to Yourself,
O Lord God
Almighty.

Psalm 80:19






Our culture's anxiety level has reached such
a height that people shoot and kill others
and never give it a thought. We're so full
of anxiety and fear that we can hardly live
with each other. How did our national feeling
of peace and safety go away?

The reason is clear. Somehow we have decided
we are so smart that we don't need God. We have
taken Him out of the school, out of the home,
out of our government--what do we have left?
The result is a society minus the benefits of
God's provision.

  1. Charles Stanley has stated this so simply and truthfully. As long as I do not watch the news and get caught up in all the bad going on, I still see beauty in people every day, their kindness and smiles, and I try to be this kind of person to others. I have to hope that the good will outweigh the bad, at least in my eyes and Gods. We can't give up because He has not given up on us. Love you girl.

    Love and Hugs, Laurie
