Wow, we are living in desperate times. At church on Sunday we sang this lovely old hymn “Take Up Thy Cross, the Savior said, if though wouldst my disciple be”. In this secular world where today’s gods are from the worldly ideas our belief in Jesus Christ our Saviour looks like failure to them.

The Lord is with us when we have not turned away from Him and have not bowed our knee to other gods. Although we may appear to be weak right now, He is that still small voice that is guiding us always and is leading us to victory at the end.

These vain people are full of their own abilities and worth, that they have no time for our God. They meditate day and night on ways to destroy our God and His Word. They are angry and in the end their attempts will be futile and worthless.

It is hard for us to understand what is happening, but Jesus said to stay close to Him and he will guide us through all that will take place. We must be willing to surrender ourselves to Him and to trust that He knows what is best for us. Sometimes it feels like we are drowning in the storm, but His Hand is always there to hold on to and we know that we can trust Him to keep us safe.

Global food crisis are predicted ahead as extreme weather events devastate crops and fields around the world. And it is not just happening in the USA.
