God’s Perspective
Perspective. It’s everything. Our nation has been suffering terrible tragedies from shootings, hurricanes, flooding, fires, and hate crimes. We can look around and feel hopeless and vulnerable; wondering why God has abandoned us. Or, we can turn to the Lord, scale the heights of heaven and gaze on who God is, what He’s done, and will do. Proverbs 18:10 reminds us, “The name of the Lord is a STRONG TOWER; The righteous runs into it and is safe.” God is not uncaring and and He is not inactive. He sent Jesus to overcome the eternal consequences of evil for all who call on His name. God has given us His Spirit to comfort and strengthen us. He’s creating a new world where evil doesn’t exist. From the perspective of heaven’s heights, I’d say our God is wonderful, loving, and faithful to we who are often unfaithful. What say you?
Heavenly Father, You are a loving, good, faithful STRONG TOWER. to whom we run to in these difficult days.
“The name of the Lord is a STRONG TOWER;
The righteous runs into it and is safe.” Proverbs 18:10
