Look Ahead, Press On, Keep Walking




This walk is definitely a journey, not to be mistaken as a quick stroll down through life.


What keeps us grounded as Christians? As I read through Psalm 73 this morning, I couldn’t help but ponder on why it “seems” as if the wicked are getting a “free pass” to do whatever they desire in life. The word “seem” is for something to “appear to be true”. I firmly believe that no matter what the world is presenting to us as its truth, we can trust in the Word of God knowing that He is The Truth.

Job was a man who was tested and tried many times over, yet he remained faithful to The Truth. Job 1:20-22 (specifically verse 21) is a prime example of how we should respond in every situation. Yes, it is tough sometimes when a person is in the storm. However, every natural storm I’ve seen has always given way to sunshine. This is the same for our spiritual storms. God uses those storms to wash away any filth that is in or around our lives (if we allow Him the space to do so).

What keeps us grounded as Christians? [Psalm 73:27-28]. We must stay near to God (His Word, The Truth) knowing that the end result is “those who desert Him will perish” and the righteous are protected and will live.
