“THINKABOUTIT” THOUGHT FOR THE DAY

Friday; January 18, 2008

 

          While I have spent the last dozen years of my life involved in Law Enforcement in one way or another; I can still recall the first time that I got be a part of a search warrant.  On that day, I was just an observer; but, I the thing that I recall the most was looking around and being surrounded by a team of guys who were not only highly trained; but, were also very large.  Personally, I am not very big; but, I didn’t have a second of apprehension because I believed in their talent and trusted their strength.

          When we face issues in life, are we confident or afraid?  Often, the response to this question might be summed up by asking, “Where is God in my life?”  If we don’t feel His closeness, fear can be a very real thing; but, if He is with us, we can echo the spirit of an old Hebrew king who observed, “The Lord is my light and my salvation; Whom shall I fear? The Lord is the defense of my life; Whom shall I dread?”  (Psalm 27:1)

          If we aren’t feeling as close to God as we should; this weekend, let’s take the time to meet Him where we can feel His greatest presence – in a service dedicated to His worship.

          Think about it!  For the Madison Avenue Church of Christ; this is Charlie Wharton.
