What Will be Our Response?

It's been a few days since the last post . . . With a fact-finding trip to assist the hurricane victims in Puerto Rico and Thanksgiving break with family in between. God has indeed been at work however! Despite what we saw in Puerto Rico, and it is shameful and devastating that our country could allow our people to suffer so much for so long, God is still in control. He is still God. He still cares, protects, loves and grants mercy and gives grace abundantly! He may allow horrible things to occur, yet He gives immeasurable opportunities to sacrifice and serve those in need and show His undying love. We are to be His ambassadors . . . His hands and feet . . . His "image" in a suffering world! What will we do in response? We cannot allow fear and anxiety paralyze us!

Yet in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us. For I am persuaded that neither death nor life, nor angels nor principalities nor powers, nor things present nor things to come, nor height nor depth, nor any other created thing, shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord. (Romans 8:37-39
