If the foundations be destroyed, what can the righteous do?
I was listening to a preacher expound on this verse found in Psalm 11:3. I only got part of it but was impressed with several things. First off, when man sinned in the garden, God could have pulled the plug so to speak but didn't. Instead He went looking for them...oh what love the Father has bestowed upon us!!! Secondly the conditions of this country are going downhill...you can get most anybody to agree to that but start to talk about the answer to mans problems... most aren't open to it. They cry themselves to sleep over their problems but still refuse to accept that the conditions are a result of man's sin and that they need Jesus. As Christians we have several options in this deteriating society....we can fight, flee or focus on Jesus. The first 2 are not good responses although I would venture to guess we all have done them or at least thought about doing them. Whether it be our own personal world that feels like it is falling apart or the world in general....we need to focus on Jesus. He is still on the throne and He will remember His own. He never will leave us alone!!!! Life isn't about us...it is about what God wants to accomplish and if it be through bad things or good we can trust Him to see us through. I am God's and no man can pluck me out of His hand. WE can choose to leave but no one can take us away from God. We serve a risen Saviour...lets proclaim Him to a dying world.

Amen! Accepting God's will is an exercise in trust, contentment, patience and total devotion to Him. I regretably fail so many times, but I run back to Him, knowing that He is the only answer to my every question.
