JESUS NEEDED AS MUCH AS EVER

The embroiled world news is playing into our hands. The word on the street isn't so good. What a backdrop for really good news. Jesus is the best news so don't forget it. Don't forget to understand the importance of him right now.

A mass of unbelievers are now discovering their stabilizing factors are eroding. Public confidence is suspect. Don't forget Jesus shines brightly in such circumstances.

The old way of doing church may not meet the needs of the day. Don't be afraid to lift the veil by being aggressive in the good news zone. The multitudes are hurting; some as never before.

The church must guard against bemoaning the day. Of all people, we must convey our treasure is quite safe; we have trusted in Him all along. Say so...with compassion...but say so. Others want such security.

As the economy declines for a bit, tempers and raw anger will escalate. Crime will rise. Remember, through every dark day, the light of Jesus. He knows how to deal with our woes. He knows how. Trust him. He died to bring life to such people of this day. Do your best to look like it.
