The last year has been rough for many people. People are afraid of death and uncertain future. The only news that you have heard the last year are bad politics and Covid. There are better topics than these and I will tell you. I have peace about the future.
There could be a worst disease than Covid, but I would still have peace and joy. What about you? Really is that your answer if you don't have hope! I know Jesus that made everything.
I wake up in the morning thinking that the Lord is with me. The future is bright and God will not allow what I can't handle. I used to limit God but I will walk through the doors of His plan. Psalm 33:1 says, "Sing joyfully to the Lord, you righteous; it is fitting for the upright to praise him."
If you don't know, I play the guitar and piano. I like to play to the Lord when I have time. I am preparing when I get to heaven. I believe that I will get a million dollar guitar and piano for free from the Lord. I will play with more skill then I have now. Worship music is the future concert when we see God up in heaven. I love languages and I can image singing Chinese, Spanish and English to my Lord. Psalm 33:2-3, "Praise the Lord with the harp; make music to him on the ten-stringed lyre. Sing to him a new song; play skillfully and shout for joy.
I have hope in justice and the world is talking about this word. The world have a definition of what is justice is and they do not look to God for answers. I see people want social justice but these people don't deal with the main issue. The main issue is sin and we need Jesus to solve this problem. God will redeem us, if we call upon Him. For the word of the Lord is right and true; he is faithful in all he does. The Lord loves righteousness and justice; the earth is full of his unfailing love."
Many people look to Joe Biden for answers. He is just a man with limited answers. Do you know who knows more than Joe. It is Jesus because He is the Maker. Psalm 33:6-7 says, "By the word of the Lord were the heavens made, their starry host by the breath of his mouth. He gathers the waters of the sea into jars; he puts the deep into storehouses."
I am the wrong person to ask what the solution in Seattle, if you reject God. Again, the problems that we are currently facing are a lack of fearing and following God. (I am not saying if everyone followed Jesus, the world would be perfect 'til Christ remove our sins.) If you don't fear the Lord, you are the problem. Psalm 33:8-9 says, "Let all the earth fear the Lord; let all the people of the world revere him. For he spoke, and it came to be; he commanded, and it stood firm."
I will add more ideas from the previous paragraph. If God is the Maker, do you want the proper information or you have a prideful heart? I had a prideful that didn't want God, but then I saw that the Lord is more smarter than me.
It is sad that I know people that will do policies and actions against the Lord. This are common in the media, social media, Hollywood and etc. I have a warning for the whole world. Psalm 33:10-11 says, "The Lord foils the plans of the nations; he thwarts the purposes of the peoples. But the plans of the Lord stand firm forever, the purposes of his heart through all generations."
I am sad to see the condition of the United States and the world. I do everything to reach people for Jesus. It seems that people hearts are hating on Jesus in a increasing trend. I am praying people will awake someday. Psalm 33:12-19 says, "Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord, the people he chose for his inheritance. From heaven the Lord looks down and sees all mankind; from his dwelling place he watches all who live on earth-he who forms the hearts of all, who considers everything they do. No king is saved by the size of his army; no warrior escapes by his great strength. A horse is a vain hope for deliverance; despite all its great strength it cannot save. But the eyes of the Lord are on those who fear him, to deliver them from death and keep them alive in famine.
You may not want to know Jesus, and I am okay with that. Your future is uncertain and keep living your way. I have hope and peace. I am waiting for the Lord. Psalm 33:20-22 says, "We wait in hope for the Lord; he is our help and our shield. In him our hearts rejoice, for we trust in his holy name. May your unfailing love rest upon us, O Lord, even as we put our hope in you."
