"Trust
in the Lord with all your heart; and lean not unto your own
understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct
your paths." Proverbs 3:5-6
Where can one find safety in a world that appears to be rapidly moving toward the concluding days of time?
How can one have inner peace when conflict reigns within the hearts of men and conflagration exacerbates between them?

The place where the anxious may turn for comfort and assurance in a
world filled with hatred and its resultant turmoil is to the same source
where comfort and assurance have ever been found--in the HOLY WORD of
our HOLY GOD.
It is there that we find His words, "May the Lord bless you and keep you; may His face shine upon you and may He be gracious to you and show you His favor and give you peace." Numbers 6:25
It is in the Bible that we find the words, "Yes, I may walk through the Valley of the Shadow of Death, but I will fear no evil because YOU, O Lord, are with me." Psalm 23:4
It is in the Bible that we find the truth, "In the world you may have trouble, but be of good cheer, for I have overcome the world." John 16:33
It is in the Book of all books that we see the assurance, "Weeping may endure for a night, but joy comes in the morning." Psalm 30:5
It is an incomprehensible truth to the unbelieving world but to people of faith, we know the promise is true, indeed, "The joy of the Lord IS our strength." Nehemiah 8:10
So shall we look for comfort and peace to men and their machinations of hatred and war, or shall we look to JESUS and HIS WORD THAT CANNOT FAIL AND CANNOT LIE?
Where will YOU look today for comfort in a world fraught with evil?
