Troubling Times for Planet Earth

        It really is sobering watching the events around the world right now. Times are frightening not only because of the evils man can commit against his neighbor, but also because of what man can do nothing to prevent, such as an Earthquake in Japan and subsequent tsunami whose effect is felt all the way over here in San Diego. We are certainly much smaller and more vulnerable than we would like to admit.

        May we take this time to hope in the God who is above this world. The Almighty who is unshakeable in His power, unchanging in His purpose, and utterly relentless in His good plans for all who come to Him through Jesus.

God is our refuge and strength,
an ever-present help in trouble.
Therefore we will not fear, though the earth give way
and the mountains fall into the heart of the sea,
though its waters roar and foam
and the mountains quake with their surging. (Psalm 46:1-3)
