Meditations for the times we are in

There are times in each of our lives that rain falls, hard times come and it helps to reach out to our friends and to our God for a little support. This is the place to express those needs, concerns and situations so others in the AAPK family can keep you in their prayers.

Meditations for the times we are in

Post by Mumbleypeg »

When the world seems to be tumbling down around us, and things happen that we don't understand, The Lord God is still on His Throne. Whether events of recent days pleased or upset you, The Book will guide and comfort you. Some passages for suggested reading that have helped me have compassion for those having differing views.

Romans 12:9-21
John 13:34-35
Galatians 5:13-15
James 5:16

If your religion requires that you hate someone, you need a new religion.

When the people fear their government, that is tyranny. When government fears the people, that is freedom.

Great post & great reminder Ken! ::tu:: ::tu::

My favorite passage for the times in which we live is Revelation 22:1-4.
No matter what happens God wins in the end!

Mumbleypeg,
"Best AAPK post ever" is an accurate statement! Thanks for posting and thanks for commenting on it, bestgear! Problem is those scripture verses probably wont be read by too many folks :( . If we as a nation could only see ourselves in the light of the Lord's Word we would certainly be more able to look forward to the day that Dale's verses describe.
It feels like we have been afforded a second chance, possibly as a result prayer.
Who says religion, life and politics don't mix? That's who we are!
