Future Promises

Right now our world is in midst of political chaos of the likes I have never seen in my life time, arguably you haven’t either. Elections always have consequences but some more than others. The consequences of this election will be profound and worldwide no matter the outcome. People all over the world are hedging. Some are rushing the US border right now trying to get in either because they are afraid they will be kept out or because they think they will be rewarded with citizenship, it is hard to tell. Investors are in full retreat getting their money out as fast as they can without making the house of cards collapse. He who gets out first gets out best. Fundamental questions of who will be on the Supreme Court and the implications of the future decisions that they make could very well impact a whole generation. Even wars once considered unthinkable are considered as candidates throw out terms like no fly zones or reconsidering the wisdom of long held alliances. Daily we are reminded of the depth of the moral and financial corruption and interconnection in our political/media industrial complex. Even branches of the government are being pitted against one another. No one knows how it will turn out. There is one thing we know for sure; most of the promises the politicians are making will not be kept.
 
How beautiful it is that God is the complete opposite. In fact, it is so comforting and reassuring during these very times to consider His promises. He will never leave us or forsake us. We have nothing to fear. He has, is, and will forgive us. We have freedom in Christ. And finally the promise we will focus on tomorrow: Jesus is coming back to make all of this right again. Come Lord Jesus come.
 
Hang in there we have only 4 more days to go.
 
Come to church and find some encouragement!
