Every news report, almost every TV commercial, and most of my mail uses the phrase, “in these uncertain times”. If they don’t use that specific phrase, they will use one just like it. For example how many times have you heard or read “challenging circumstances” or “rapidly changing events” in recent days.
In my 70 years of life, times and events have always been uncertain, challenging and rapidly changing. It seems like I am always trying to “flatten the curve” so I can somehow slowdown and catch a breath. I don’t know about you, but everyone around me seems to be in the same sort of mindset.
What can we do to slow things down? How do we maintain a right view of the events around us? Who can we trust to tell us something that is both encouaging and true.
If you have been reading this blog, it will not surprise you that I find all these things in Jesus. He is my anchor in challenging times. He is my Rock and Deliverer. He leads me in truth and gives me hope in uncertain times. He will do the same for you.
“Peace I leave with you; my peace I give to you. Not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your hearts be troubled, neither let them be afraid.” These are the words of Jesus in John 14:27 ESV
