For many will come in My name [misusing it, and appropriating the strength of the name which belongs to Me], saying, ‘I am the Christ (the Messiah, the Anointed),’ and they will mislead many. You will continually hear of wars and rumors of wars. See that you are not frightened, for those things must take place, but that is not yet the end [of the age]. For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom, and there will be famines and earthquakes in various places. But all these things are merely the beginning of birth pangs [of the intolerable anguish and the time of unprecedented trouble]. (Matthew 24: 5-8 AMP)A week into 2023 and where are we? Back to work . . . back to school . . . back to the routine. However, we still have some things to ponder . . . some things to plan . . . some things to go to God about today.
Bombs still landing in the Ukraine. Covid strains seem to be popping up. A football player actually died on the field and had to be resuscitated twice! Weather patterns are going crazy from monster blizzards on the East Coast to atmospheric river storms on the West Coast. A college student travelled across state lines just to murder four other college students; then ride cross country home with his dad.
What is going on anyway? What do we make of it all God? I know one ting . . . He is still in control!
