Don't be a Fool

"The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good." - Psalm 14:1 (KJV 1611)

Many ask, "Where is the proof there is a God?".

"The heavens declare the glory of God, and the firmament sheweth his handywork." - Psalm 19:1

One does not have to look very far or search too diligently to see the handywork of the Lord. Each morning the sun breaks through the Eastern sky, I know there is a God. As the clouds roll in and begins to water the dry ground, I know there is a God. When I can breathe air into my lungs and feel my heart beat, I know there is a God. As the cold winds blow and I see the beautiful falling snow flake, I know there is a God. When that little bundle of joy is welcomed into the loving arms of a mom and a dad, I know there is a God.

Sure, bad things happen in this life. No one said life is perfect without any hurts or disappointments. But, it's in those difficult times, again, I know there is a God. He never promised to keep us from all the troubles of life, but He does promise to see us through them and never leave us. "...I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee." - Hebrews 13:6b

So many times when we go through the hard times of life, we tend to bail out on the very one we need the most. Many of the difficult things we endure are brought on by our own choices. The Lord often gets the blame for putting us through something, when in reality, we're just reaping what we've sown.

Atheists say "There is no God."
Liberals say "God is whatever you want it to be."
Humanism says, "You are your own god."

There is a God. How do I know? He gave me physical life on July 10th, 1973. On January 15th, 1981 I was saved and born again, into the family of God. When life became hard as a husband and father, there were times I didn't know where to turn. I know there is a God, because He guided, comforted and supplied all of our needs.

Hard times lie ahead for our Nation. My confidence is not in the U.S. Government or any organization. My hope and confidence is in the Creator of the Universe, the God of Heaven and the Saviour of my Soul.

Where is your hope? Trust Jesus Christ today as your Saviour before it's eternally too late. Maybe you are a Christian, but you've found yourself looking down at the problems in your life. The best way to make your problems look smaller is stop looking down and start looking up.- "Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith;" - Hebrews 12:2a; "I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help. My help cometh from the LORD, which made heaven and earth." - Psalm 121:1-2
