Do you ever feel like up is down and down is up in our world? The morality that our culture once acknowledged seems to be getting challenged at every turn. It very much feels like foundational truths are collapsing. When we talk about the Biblical truths that guides our lives we seem out of touch and old fashioned. It is easy to feel intimidated because many times we are in the minority. Psalm 11 reassures us that the Lord still rules from heaven, from His holy Temple. He is still in charge and His ways are right.
The tragedy is that the further our culture gets from the truth that God has established, the more pain, suffering and desperation will be experienced in our world. This is a great opening for us to be the light in the darkness. Our challenge is to be this light with grace and love.

I had a note in my Bible (in Ephesians 3) from what I am sure was one of Pastor Eddie's sermons... "Don't just live your life, fulfill your purpose."
Perhaps in fulfilling our purpose we also find wisdom and understanding.

I have started today thw 14th. thank you pastor for this. Allen
Thank you. We need to pray for our nation. Like Adrian Rogers said, it doesn't matter who is elected, until the heart's of the people change and turn to God, our nation will not change.
Psalm 12 really hits home during this age of moral ineptitude, when killing our unborn children is a choice and homosexuality is applauded. I am so thankful that we can trust in God's promises and know that He's in control. I pray for his wisdom and I pray for our country. May we truly be a nation under God.
