Some years ago my children said to me “Dad, the world is not the same that you grew up in”. They were right and it has gotten worse since that time. I have read things in the last week that horrify me. The news would have an extremely negative impact on me if that is what I focused on. But I choose not to focus on the news of the world but rather the Word of God which nourishes my soul and my spirit. The Word gives me eternal hope and a purpose for living. I find good news within its pages. I find good news that encourages me to go on with Jesus Christ. I find good news that guides me and directs me on how to live a life worth living. I pray that you will sit quietly somewhere today and spend time with God in the Word of God and discover eternal life.
