God is in Control

Job 12:10 - In whose hand [is] the soul of every living thing, and the breath of all mankind.

It is very easy is to lose all sense of well-being by watching the news, reading articles on the web, and seeing social media posts. God has told us, He will never leave us nor forsake us. God is still in CONTROL! Psalms 37:5 tells us "Commit thy way unto the LORD: trust also in him; and he shall bring it to pass." Whatever is going on in the world or in your life we are to commit it unto the Lord. I think about the Israelites after their escape from Egypt. It took them 40 years to arrive at the Promised Land. In those 40 years, they suffered great hardships and trials. They had so many fears and complaints, yet God always provided. God always provides. We must not abandon God in our times of fear and hardships. How we handle or react in times like today can teach those around us about our trust in the Lord. Our first response should always be to pray. How do you respond? Do you trust God? Do you abandon God? Romans 8:18 says "For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us." Remember that actions can speak louder than words. I do not know what the future holds, but I do know that God is in Control!
