This is a crazy, mixed up world we live in. God never changes, but this world changes every day. Keeping up with all the changes can be mind boggling. If we stay focused on the Lord we will remain in a more peaceful state of mind than if we don't. When circumstances surround us and make us uncomfortable or even fearful, remember all the times God delivered you from your difficulties and rest in that fact. He is the same yesterday, today and forever. He loves you and will never leave you. You may feel forsaken a time or two in your life, but if you have committed your life to Christ, the Spirit of God resides within you. He can't get any closer to you than that. Rest assured that God will be with you in any and all situations you may find yourself in on any given day. Rest in that fact. Fear not, for I am with you always. (Joshua 1:9; Genesis 28:15) rlkeller
