WHEN THINGS FALL APART

Cyclone

In this world we are faced by many situations that can result in severe stress, anxiety, fear, anger, frustration, grief, hopelessness and many other tumultuous emotions. These feelings can overwhelm us, ruin our health, and diminish our ability to move forward.

But when we trust God and seek His guidance, He helps us make our way courageously through uncharted waters. He gives us his peace; a calmness and joy that knows no understanding, so that we develop a better sense of control over our thoughts and emotions, allowing us to make good decisions and move forward.

“The cyclone derives its powers from a calm centre. So does a person.” Norman Vincent Peale.

The Word of the Lord bids us to be strong and courageous as we face the storms. “Do not be afraid or terrified because of them, for the LORD your God goes with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you." Deuteronomy 31:6

In which storm will you trust the Lord for deliverance? Seek to have a calm centre and you will acquire the power you seek.

Sing the Song of Simon

Praises

Simeon took him in his arms and praised God, saying:  “Sovereign Lord, as you have promised, you may now dismiss your servant in peace. For my eyes have seen your salvation, which you have prepared in the sight of all nations: a light for revelation to the Gentiles, and the glory of your people Israel.” Luke 2:28-32

Simon had lived a long devout and righteous life and the Holy Spirit had promised him that he would not die until he had seen the Savior. When the baby Jesus was brought into the temple where he usually worshiped, he held him reverently in his hands and praised God. His heart rested and he was ready to rest forever in peace.

Have you embraced the Savior and seen his salvation?  Is all fear of death banished from you? The song of Simon reminds us that Christ came to save everybody. He came so that you can enjoy abundant life. He is what your soul has been waiting for. Embrace the gift.

"The fear of death follows from the fear of life.  A man who lives fully is prepared to die at any time". Mark Twain
