Today’s Thought “We’ll Get Through This…” G. Ward

 

1 Peter 5:6-7 “Therefore humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God, that He may exalt you at the proper time, ⁷ casting all your anxiety on Him, because He cares for you.”

 

We’ve gone viral like never before, literally. Chants of deliverance embracing, “we’ll get through this” assumes an end in melancholy once felt (cf. Matt.6:34). Have we forgotten diseases of sorts, along with varied tragedies are daily occupations of mankind to witness earthly end? Moreover, is it man’s presumption based on this reality, sending him to the marketplace to purchase more bathroom tissue? Instead, he’s yet honing in with a preparation in tangibilities (Matt.6:19-21), rather than to gather himself in accordance to the eternality proposed by his Creator (2 Pe.3:9) and when his end is near, and assumption is no longer the demand of his soul, will there be another whose soul is anchored there to share that Holy God loved him the whole time (Ro.5:8), desiring to grant him rest forever (*Lk.14:23)?
