God Is On The Throne

He said, "This is the resting place, let the weary 
rest...   Isaiah 28:12

Why do you worry? What possible use does your
worrying serve? You are aboard such a large ship
that you would be unable to steer even if your
Captain placed you at the helm. Be quiet, dear soul--
God is the Master!

Do you think all the commotion and uproar of this
life is evidence that God has left His throne? He
has not! His mighty steeds rush furiously ahead,
and His chariots are the storms themselves. But
the horses have bridles, and it is God who holds
the reins, guiding the chariots as He wills!

Our God Jehovah is still the Master! Believe this
and you will have peace. "Don't be afraid."
Charles Spurgeon

The title of the news headline caught my attention:

"Egyptian Christians killed for refusing to 
renounce their faith."

Evidently, each person was asked if he would re-
nounce his faith in Jesus as he stepped off the bus.
One by one each stepped off alone and one by
one each said, "no," and was immediately shot--
even the children...

Reader,
Christians are the most persecuted group of people
in the world today. Won't you pray for your sisters,
and brothers who face imprisonment and death
daily?
