Between the Storms: November 2009

Today is Monday Manna. Jo, at Open Book, is our Monday Manna Mama:) Ha ha. Wait til she reads that! Today isn't a very good day. My head is roaring and my eyes hurt. It's hard to be on the computer but this is where I gravitate to for almost everything even though it's hard at times. Philippians is one of my favorite books of the Bible and this is a great verse to think and write about. I couldn't pass it up.

With all the bad around us, it's sometimes hard to fill our minds with good. President Obama is declaring this swine flu as a pandemic, which strikes fear in the hearts of people. He also has everyone up in arms about the health care issues. Just with these two things, I can't imagine how people can handle not having a personal relationship with Christ. I have no fear. I know God is God, just like He has been since the beginning of time. There is nothing to fear when our lives are right with Him. When sleep avoids us, think about these, it's much more effective than counting sheep. God is certainly our Shepherd, with Him we have nothing to fear.
