Hebrews 12:2 looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith, who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.
Jesus told us He is the Light of the world and that the world would get darker and darker so we shouldn't be surprised when it does, but because we have Jesus we have His light in our darkness.
Nowhere in scripture does it say to keep our eyes on the world and it's troubles. Our verse says the opposite - keep your eyes looking unto Jesus. Colossians 3:2 Set your mind on things above, not on things on the earth. When our eyes are on the world we get depressed, but when our eyes on Jesus we will have hope and comfort.
We still have the Good News that God is with us in the middle of it all and Jesus will continue to shed the light of His love in a dark place. When we believe in Him we are amazingly blessed and maybe we forget we're no longer part of this world and it's system. We're part of God's system, part of His kingdom which is righteousness, peace and joy despite what the world does.
For those who have said yes to Jesus we can thankfully still believe for God to go ahead of us and protect us. We can still believe for Him to provide for us whether prices escalate or not, for His love to surround us and for His angels to guard us. Why is that? It's all because of Jesus and what He did for us on the cross. We have a Wonderful Saviour, a Wonderful Deliverer.
We can be at peace knowing Jesus is still the Light of the world no matter what happens! Thank You Lord.
