With all the craziness and confusion going on in our country at this time, I read this earlier and wanted to uplift and bring hope from the Lord to you guys.
2 Peter 3: 10 - 14
10 But when the Day of God’s Judgment does come, it will be unannounced, like a thief. The sky will collapse with a thunderous bang, everything disintegrating in a raging inferno, earth and all its works exposed to the scrutiny of Judgment.
11-13 Since everything here today might well be gone tomorrow, do you see how essential it is to live a holy life? Daily expect the Day of God, eager for its arrival. The galaxies will burn up and the elements melt down that day—but we’ll hardly notice. We’ll be looking the other way, ready for the promised new heavens and the promised new earth, all landscaped with righteousness.
14 So, my dear friends, since this is what you have to look forward to, do your very best to be found living at your best, in purity and peace.
I am not saying you shouldn't be upset with current events, we are human with emotions. What I am saying is to live how God is saying to live doing what is always the right thing, and loving others. How much different would current events be if we all did this, and really being pumped up for what is coming ahead not long from now being with the Lord experiencing the new heaven and new earth?..
Remember before you act when upset or very frustrated, you do what is right, not in vengeance or what you think is right, but what is actually right in God's eyes. Treat others how you would want to be treated with dignity and respect, and generosity even if they have very different views on life or even political ideologies. Love others how God loves us.
Hope this brings life and encouragement into your day today..
