Weekly Words from the Staff
A word from Rev Lanny Green…
Psalm 121
1I lift up my eyes to the mountains—
where does my help come from?
2 My help comes from the Lord,
the Maker of heaven and earth.
In a time of mixed messages in our world and confusion; in a tumultuous time, isn’t it great to know that we have a constant in our lives? We have help from on high. We have a Father who is looking over us and who will take care of us if we will trust Him and place our cares in His hands. Let this be a reminder to all of us that even though there are things going on outside of our control there is nothing that is going on that is outside of His control and that He doesn’t already know about. In recent days in our community, and in many people’s personal lives, we have experienced personal trials and tragedy. Some have experienced the loss of a loved one after hard fought battles with disease. Some were taken unexpectedly. I have seen so many grieve and do it with strength and grace. But in a word, their lives have been turned upside down and they are in a storm. However, they have been able to praise God in that storm because their faith in Him was not grounded in circumstances but in the unwavering truth of God. That when we face difficult times, we can lift up our eyes to the Lord and cry out to Him. He is our only hope. He is there to lead, to comfort, and to hear our cries. 1 Peter 5:7 tells us “Cast all of our anxiety (or cares in some versions) on Him because He cares for you.” He cares for us and wants to help and comfort us. It may not always turn out the way that we wanted or predicted but I promise that He always knows best. Be encouraged today that your God cares. Jesus told us in John 16:33 “I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have troubles. But take heart! I have overcome the world.” We will have troubles but we can have peace and hope in knowing that He overcomes in the end. We may not get our answer here on earth but in the end, we have an eternity in heaven to look forward to and we can have hope in that promise.
Be blessed
Lanny
