When Are Things Going to Get Better?
January 9, 2024
I'm not one of those people like Chicken Little who walk around proclaiming, "The sky is falling! The sky is falling!" even though I know times are honestly very tough for many, many people. I don’t know about you, but I actually feel like hard times are the best time to do a little house cleaning.
Perhaps that is what God is doing right now with us. I believe it is.
Pastor James Robison's says, “This world needs more goodness. But if we try to do good in the world before first becoming good ourselves, we will not succeed. First we must be, and then we can effectively do."
This is a good challenge to me. So how can I be good? For me, good grows in me through prayer, study, journaling, connecting with others, having intentional conversations about God—for starters. But ultimately, my hope has to completely be in Christ… or else everything will look pretty desperate.
Remember, choose hope today.
