October 16, 2007

Good morning! The Rockies will play in the World Series! Despite the miserable playing of our football team, we do have something to cheer about. I see they canned the Husker athletic director yesterday; I wonder if that has anything to do with the Rockies winning? No, sometimes we look for patterns and signs where none exist. That may be a part of our nature or it may be a symptom of the modern electronic media. We get news so quickly these days that it is easy to make connections where none exist. We are to be watchful and there are signs that the last days are upon us and Jesus return is closer than it has ever been. We do see a polarization of the world from those who will believe on one side to those who refuse to believe on the other. People all over the world rush about trying to "get ahead" and make more money. Not that long ago it took a couple of months to cross the Atlantic; you had time to regret taking on the journey well before arriving at the destinations. Today, a few hours in a plane and you are in a totally different culture and still trying to sort out your feelings and thoughts. However, the speed of the Internet and satellite news is perhaps the most breathtaking of all. News developments in far countries can be seen live in many cases. Overwhelmed? You bet; we can be overwhelmed with information today and we see the mental disorders that go with it.

Seek and ask for God's peace today. He promised it, and we know that our God never goes back on His Word. Trust in the Lord Jesus and enjoy a life of peace and joy in Him!
