COUNT-OFF & NAME-O-RAMA
CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
The following is from Jeremiah 17: 7-8.
“Blessed is the man who trusts in the Lord,
whose trust is the Lord.
8 He is like a tree planted by water,
that sends out its roots by the stream,
and does not fear when heat comes,
for its leaves remain green,
and is not anxious in the year of drought,
for it does not cease to bear fruit.”
We sometimes find ourselves anxious when unexpected events occur, when we lose something important to us, when we fail at something we have taken on, when bad times hit, when, as the bible verses above allude to, the “year of drought” is here. I think of the folks out in California right now who have lost homes and possessions. I saw one homeowner who was interviewed who said that the only thing in his home that survived the fire was a ceramic pot he made when he was a student in school.
It is at such times that we truly must trust in the Lord. How do we trust at such times? We must believe that comfort will come. We must believe that God has people out there who are willing to provide support. We must believe that God is with us. If we can stay strong, not see merely the negative, we have strength to unite with others and rebuild. It will take community and strength for those in California to survive the fires. Those that are firmly planted in God will strive on despite the pain, will work through their fear, will not only take the helping hand that Americans will provide but reach out a helping hand to others. If we can trust in God we can stand tall in such difficult times, rise above the destruction and work toward something greater than the things we have lost.
