What is your faith focused on? Is it those things that can be seen? Things that can be heard? That which you witness in the physical?
Today's tumultuous times draws our attention to all the danger, evil, and sin in the world. It is like standing under a shower of filth. It coats most of what we hear and see each day.
Now more than ever, we need to consistently re-align our focus through the day. We need to shift our gaze to the Father and remind ourselves that nothing happens that has not been sifted through His hands.
The word "truth" is talked about quite often. The foundation of truth is the real issue. If the version of truth being spouted is derived from any source other than the Word of God, then it is faulty. When we know truth, we can be assured of what is evil and what is not.
We are told plainly in Hosea 4:6 My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge.
So this begs the question: how do you know truth? Truth is that which is consistent with the mind, will, character, glory, and being of God.
The only way to know these things, is to daily study His word. As we earnestly seek Him, He will reveal himself to us. It is through studying His life, character, and teachings that we will come to know Truth itself.
So lift your eyes my friends. Do not be afraid for the events of today's times but instead rest in the peace that can only come from the Father above!
Blessings to one and all....
