The Answer to Everything

Joy!

The mark. 

Yet, so many…dying.

Aren’t we alive?

I hear their woos.  Counsel.  Encourage.

But hearts grow faint…as Matthew said they would.  Lives destroyed…by doubt, pain, job loss all around.

There is hope!

Hope!

Isn’t it the mark we envelope?

Hope in Him to save us…not ourselves.  Hope of a Savior, who knows, who sees…who loves.

I see her face.  Darkened by doubt.  Faith lost.  Needing prayer.  Anorexia.  Life struggles.

Faith!

What happened to faith? 

Isn’t it the mark we’ve embraced?

Yet Matthew says, in last days, many will loose faith & their hearts would grow cold.

Where is our focus?  On God? On the world?  On our circumstances?

Stand!

Isn’t that what Christ calls us to do?

In these days?  In this hour?  Regardless of our weaknesses…our fears…our faith bruised…like a reed?

Yet, truth reveals…A bruised reed will not be broken!

So why doubt?  Why hide?  Why fear?

Arise Joy!  Arise Hope!  Arise Faith!  Stand!

If we, Christians, are flailing…How can a weak, weary, broken world see Christ!?  Is He not more than we make Him.

Is He not the answer to everything?

Christ!

    Thank goodness we can do hard things. Thank goodness we can do all things (even when they are hard) through Christ who gives us strength!

  2. Jennifer. Yes,I need to be reminded daily my need to turn my eyes to Him, the author & perfecter of our faith! How good He is to help us when we call on Him.
