Christians Take Heart
Christians Take Heart
God is still on His throne.
We knew in this journey that things would happen in the world that would discourage and, even at times, horrify us.
I turn off the news a lot.
And I click out of the internet headlines because they get to be too much.
I read about the “groups” that are now pushing even harder for their “rights” and it makes my skin crawl…like pedos. I can’t even say that full word because it makes me nauseated. You can check it out for yourself. See Allen B. West’s website, June 27th article, for the awful headline. That’s what happens when God’s design for marriage is shot down.
And I turn off the television shows that glorify SIN.
It’s so “in your face” that I get sick of it. In our home, we tape a lot of family-friendly shows and buy movies just to get away from the junk. No agenda-TV for us, thanks.
This continuing defiance and fist-shaking at God that is happening in America will not end well for those who continue to deny His ultimate authority.
Very Troublesome Times Are Up Ahead
As Christians, we must continue to stand up for God’s truth in love and respond with gentleness and respect.
Time to get ready though. There are those people who hate God so much they will vilify believers. That’s you and me.
We will be hated and may lose friendships for speaking up for Jesus Christ, maybe even lose our jobs. We should expect it and be prepared. Someone said to me once, in effect, “Christians always think they’re being persecuted.” How sad is it that someone like that person refuses to listen to what is happening in other countries and also what is already happening here in the United States. They need to be more informed before making a statement like that.
But, in the thick of it, we must continue to pray.
As Christ forgave us, we must forgive them.
Don’t Lose Heart, My Brothers and Sisters in Christ
Stay strong, bold, and courageous. We know how it all ends.
He has overcome the world and keeps all of His promises.
Keep looking Heavenward!
