As I have watched the events unfold in the world with deportations, spiritual warfare, families being attacked, marriages in confusion and so many other issues. I am reminded of a song by the great Motown group, the Temptations. "Ball of Confusion." This verse is a great synopsis of the concerns we are facing:
Well, the only person talking about loving thy brother is the preacher, And it seems nobody's interested in learning, but the teacher, Segregation, demonstration, integration, determination, aggravation, humiliation, Obligation to our nation.
I always found solice in that song with the respect given to the preacher.
The only way that we can begin to heal as a nation, a community, a city or the world is for those that are called to proclaim the Gospel (preaching ) step
forward in a more active role.
The following scriptures are what give me strength and hope.
The name of the LORD is a fortified tower; the righteous run to it and are safe. Proverbs :18:10
Now to Him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us, Ephesians 3:20
He protects us from whatever we are facing and will do even more that what we ask. We must have faith.
