Cloudy or blue and early? It's a little hard to tell at this point in the morning. We have one thing on ages past, and that is the amount of information available to us from all over the globe. Do you ever feel that if you run across just one more thing to remember, that shoving it into the ol' memory will cause another thing you simply must remember to pop right on out the other side? I suspect that has actually been happening to me for quite some time but I don't recall what it is that popped out. We have so much available to us that the signs of the times we are to watch for may well get lost in the deluge of possible signs we see in the news every day. Information overload was coined a long time ago, so long in fact that we forget people were worried about this before the Internet and mobile devices arrived on the scene.
Praise God that Jesus simplified things for us by saying, "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me." (John 14:6) Simple in this age of information saturation is a good thing. We don't have to worry about whether we chose the right way among a host of potential choices. We don't have to muddle about seeking a truth among many, or trying to find the way to life that works for us while helping a friend deal with a different life way that works for him. Jesus gave us a simple choice in a world that offers us complexity, variety, and confusion. One way and no one comes to God except through Jesus our Lord. One narrow gate, one Good Shepherd, one way for those who believe in Jesus, and He is the way for you and me!
Love and grace from our Lord Jesus Christ to His saints in this confusing age!
