Surviving a Chaotic New Year!


Surviving a Chaotic New Year!

 

“The Lord is my rock, my Fortress and MY Rock, my Savior, my God is my rock in whom I find protection. He is my shield, the power that saves me, and my place of safety.”

2 Samuel 22:3

 

  How can we survive a chaotic year? This is our topic. This coming year there seems to be many uncertainties which are: political, economic, social, emotional and personal.

 

       We are finding that many parts of the world at war with each other, families torn asunder though conflicts, such as illness, tragedies, and having lost or losing a loved ones. 

                                                                           We are also seeing our freedoms and rights being taken away or being restricted. I am also seeing that immorality increasing, people challenging the authority of God, the Bible and persecuting the Christian church!

 

  So what is our hope?  My daughter gave me a cross for Christmas. Inscribed on the cross is 2 Samuel 22:3 which states that the Lord is my rock. He is my Fortress, my Rock, Savior and Protector. He is also my Shield. He alone is my power to save me and my place of safety as we face these uncertain days!!!!

   My son also gave me a picture frame which also inscribed the names of God which gives us strength to face the heavy days ahead!

 

   Dear friends as we face many uncertainties and chaotic days ahead may we place our faith and hope in Jesus, Our Rock! May we also stay close as a family, support and encourage each other!

     Lastly remember don't let fear rule your life!  The scriptures states,"Trust in the Lord with all thine heart and He shall direct your paths!"

 

    My family wish you all a Happy and prosperous New Year!!!!

 

Love, Eddie and Donna Smatt
