Jesus’ warnings are stark. Remember He said to His followers … do not be frightened …

Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. There will be great earthquakes, famines, and pestilences in various places, and fearful events and great signs from heaven. Luke 21:10-11

Today you are invited to consider the signs that surround you. Can you see these things happening? This post was written several weeks ago. How have things changed since five weeks ago? Where is Jesus for you at this point in time? Spend time with Him. Ask Him to make His presence felt. Pray for those who believe – and those who don’t believe. Pray for those you love and those you don’t love. Pray for your family, colleagues, friends. Pray for the children. However Jesus leads you – pray at this time. And take courage in His presence and His love.

May God bless you with moment by moment assurances of His presence with you today.
