Bible Quiz time; these might be a little harder. Hope that you can get one or two!
1) What was Peter's profession in the Bible?
2) What did Zacchaeus do for a living?
3) Where did Mary and Joseph find Jesus when they thought he was lost?
"What in the world is going on?"
I mentioned at our weekly church prayer group yesterday that it just seems like the world, as we know it, is spinning out of control.
"Everywhere I look people are having to deal with so many things," I said.
Some are dealing with serious health issues, one isn't resolved before another one pops up. Bigger and bigger bills enter into the family mailbox; how are these going to be paid? Several people I know within the last year plus have had a close family member die; then comes another death or one that is pending. Individuals and families are stretched many different ways. How do they cope? How do we do it?
Sometimes it feels like someone has shut off the lights in the world, our world. Things seem to be growing darker; we need a flashlight to find our way.
"Your word is a lamp for my feet,
a light on my path."
~ Psalm 119:105 NIV
We are going to need help in this life. We need Someone to save us. We need to follow Jesus (aka as the Light of the World)!
Dear Jesus, You knew we couldn't make it in this life on our own. Thank You for Your plan to save us from our situations; from ourselves. We need Your help; we need You! Amen.
