There is so much going on in the world. It is hard to understand why it is all happening. Unless you have read the Bible. God told us that many of these newsworthy things happening today would be happening near the end of the age. Some people don’t want to believe that we are at that point but there is no other explanation for the hatred and violence that just gets worse from week to week.
The news media doesn’t want to report it so most of the real news is covered up or not reported. Some news agencies report on news that others tend to overlook. Otherwise, life goes on and many don’t realize which “news” is real and which isn’t important in the scheme of things. But…God knows what is happening and why because He is in control.
Why is our world in the shape that it’s in? Because Satan has tried to corrupt the world and everyone in it for thousands of years. Even when you give your heart to Jesus, he won’t leave you alone. Satan reminds you that you aren’t good enough for God’s love, he tells you that those things that you did many years ago will keep you from getting into Heaven. Even when you know that Jesus is your Savior, Satan will try to make you doubt it every day. Whenever you think something you shouldn’t or say something you know is wrong, he will remind you that you aren’t good enough.
The problem with his logic is that Jesus chose each of us who are called to be His and once we have given our hearts to Him, nothing can take us from Him. In our strength, we can’t be good enough but the Holy Spirit gives us the strength, in Him, to resist those “suggestions” from the devil. God loves us His Strength to make it through each day, one day at a time. Make sure you have sought to know Jesus as your Savior because one day soon He will be coming back for His Church, so make sure you are a part of it.
Look at the heavens tonight if you can see the stars and think about the Creator Who placed the stars in their places. Then… think about how much He loves you. The Bible says that “even when a sparrow falls, God knows about it”. Imagine God notices a small bird’s death, how much more does He care for you?
