Still Confident In Christ

 It's a snowy winters day as I begin to write once again.  It's been about one year since my last entry, and I really am not sure how this will proceed in the days ahead. At the time of my last entry I was extremely troubled over the state of things in the USA. Now one year later I think I can say that my troubled heart was and is correct. An illegitimate president, enacting illegitimate decisions and policies have driven us to more confusion and disruption. His cohorts in Government and the media propaganda machinery have added fuel to an already hurtful state of the union. 

 My faith in the Lord Jesus Christ is intact, and I realize He is not taken by surprise at the ungodliness being foisted upon the nation in the name of politics and policy. My heart is grieving for my nation, yet I know I'm created for a greater nation, a heavenly one, where all this confusion and wrong will have no place. But today the cold snow flies.  Yet still, that snow has a good purpose in the hand of God Who sustains all things. It will bring moisture to the ground which in turn will bring forth life, food, and bread to those who sow the seeds of produce in our blessed land.   As a Christian I trust that even the confusion and trials besetting this nation will be used in the mighty hand of Christ, to sow seeds of victory and worship, as people begin to recognize the wrong we have done in excluding Christ from our national life. 

Maybe we will repent because we get sick of our sins and their natural and logical consequences, and have had our fill of our ways. Maybe. It is up to the church of Jesus Christ to be His voice and hands in this time. That has been my prayer for many months now, and I will continue to pray along those lines. Whatever insights and thoughts that may find their way to this little blog, I trust will be helpful to some. May God help me to be who I should be, and His church to be what it should be as well.
