"Take Heart!"
Hi John,
Just a note to those disheartened by the recent election
in the U.S. and the coincidental deflation of many hopes that the LORD
was returning on the 8th of this month.
Psalm 118, verses 8 and 9 say:
"It is better to trust in the LORD than to put confidence
in man.
It is better to trust in the LORD than to put confidence
in princes."
It's hard when you see people fail...but that's what
we do best, folks--on every level. So we should not be surprised--but it
still hurts, regardless.
Praise God, that He's not a failure. He's Faithful and
True. His plan is underway and no one can stand in His way.
The only thing good about America is the Spirit of God
dwelling in His children here--and that has always been the case: all the
other trappings are illusory.
God's people are still here and we are to occupy till
He comes. Praise God for His goodness inside us, and the good that we can
do for this country while we are yet here.
May His Kingdom come and His will be done on earth, even
as it is in heaven.
Your brother in Christ,
Matt in Hayward, CA
