Fear, Panic, Or Not

Philippians 4:6-7

Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God, and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.

As most people know by now, the world is in crisis. Fear and panic seems to be the order of the day for most people. Comfortable lives have been turned upside down, and people who thought they were in control and secure, had an awakening they never expected.

Events like we are experiencing brings out the best and worst in people. The majority of people unfortunately care only about themselves. They hoard, cheat, or steel, whatever they think they need, with no regard for others needs.

Fear and panic created many problems. Stock markets go down, and life savings evaporate. Thousands of jobs are lost,businesses are closed, and people are ruined. Leaders make bad decisions that are influenced by their own fear, or by pressure from others.

The truth is, if people and governments would turn to God, none of this would happen. What I mean by that is people would be led to do the right thing. I repeat, none of this had to happen. Companies that were doing business didn't change, greed and fear caused financial panic. Rejection of God opened the door for the devil. Get the idea?

Stores were being restocked as usual, but hoarding, and panic buying created shortages. This in turn caused even more shortages. People lost all, common sense. The world displays what happens when people reject God. When people know God and trust Him, their hearts are at peace, and they make good decisions.

 How would the world be if all of our leaders knew God, and followed the Bible? I guess you could say that would be heaven, and we are not there yet. It is up to believers to pray for this world, and our fellow citizens,and beg God for forgiveness so that this whole catastrophe will come to an end by the will of God and His mercy. God bless you and your family. Praise the Lord!
