Waiting here for you, Lord!
We can see clearly, the evil that surrounds us on all sides, yet we cannot forget as believers, that our mission, which we have been given, to point all who will listen, that there is GOOD NEWS, for all who believe, that this world will one day be restored, by the one who holds all things in his power. That person…..is Jesus Christ! Amen.

Finally, be strong in the Lord and in the strength of His might. Put on the full armor of God, so that you will be able to stand firm against the schemes of the devil.
Each day is a Gift. Let us not grow weary, as we serve him together. Father, forgive us, when we get caught up on the things that do not matter, eternally.

Why should we be surprised, when we face trials, when serving the Lord. James 1, says, “Consider it all joy”!
