Today’s Thought “Small Town, Enlarged At A Moment’s Notice” G. Ward

“Now you followed my teaching, conduct, purpose, faith, patience, love, perseverance, ^] persecutions, and sufferings, such as happened to me at Antioch, at Iconium and at Lystra; what persecutions I endured, and out of them all the Lord rescued me!” 2 Timothy 3:10-11

Our exposure to teaching forgets to include great trouble that accompanies occupational realities. That lack in proper instruction enables mental meltdown for extended periods that questions why hazards are so pervasive. Moreover, certain venues are more contemplated as safer, although we’ve witnessed the opposite (cf. *Ps.127:1). When tragedy strikes it’s certainly not the time to impose on any distraught varied defense tactics, but to compassionately embrace the opportunity in portraying Holy God as Sufficient rest for all weary (Mt.11:28-30) promoting inclusiveness for so many that want to trust (*Col.1:28).

Happy Monday!
