The storm is upon us

The storm is upon us October 8, 2008

“Some trust in chariots and some in horses,but we trust in the name of the Lord our God.”

— Psalm 20:7
We gathered on the shore and watched the angry clouds gather on the horizon. Trouble was brewing.

But many others ignored the dark chaos. They hoped the howling winds would pass us by. They believed that the signs were for other times.
The storm is now upon us.
The fury has started and may get much worse. Trillions of dollars have vanished — homes repossessed, retirement dreams gone, jobs lost. Following our march into the darkness, the entire world is engulfed in a vortex of chaos. Soon, we may see political upheaval, anger spilling out into the streets and trouble all around us.

But there is hope to be found.
Some may put their trust in the financial world, but I trust the Lord.
Some may put their trust in the government, but I trust the Lord.
Some may put their trust in leaders, but I trust the Lord.
Some may trust an economy, or a way of life, or a political system, but I trust the Lord.

How about you?
