Thought For Today - 9/1/08

Happy Labor Day!

It is no harder to believe God in "bad time" than it is in "good times." The problems come from not using your faith when things seem good or easy. Then when something happens that causes trouble, spiritually inactive people are not ready. Then it looks worse than it actually is. More than ever when one listens to the new media and all the noise the world makes. The world system and everyone in it stays in trouble all the time.

You cannot serve the world's way and God's way at the same time. The world's way is you working to meet your needs, always thinking about what you don't have!

Search out God's way of doing things. Don't just try it; put His ways first in your life and make His way the ONLY way you do things. Begin to depend on God - for everything! Use your faith in God. Believe that God loves you. Believe that no matter what is going on in the world, God is going to be with you to the end.

This is the way we are to believe, regardless of what's happening in the world. When you have God in your life - He is working all the time. He is preparing ahead of time for whatever darkness is trying to do.

Much love,
Joseph
