Children of the living God,
May the word of the Lord enrich you abundantly above and beyond all that you can imagine. May it strengthen your faith and give you hope in this desperate day.
Do not fear the world, nor shall you fear man, and do not become ensnared with the wisdom of this world for it is vain and fleeting.
People of His pasture, we are not of this world we are sojourners walking this earth until we reach our eternal home. And since we are His people we must be about doing His business while we walk in these fleshly tents.
I say this as one who struggles with the wiles of this world - His word says that I do not have to fear. For I must place my faith and trust in Him – in His faithfulness, in His lovingkindness, in His righteousness, in His Holiness – and take up my cross and follow Him. For He has promised His Holy Spirit shall be with us to lead us and guide us if we might surrender all.
As we are the apple of His eye therefore may we focus on the goal set before us, the crown of glory that is His restoration of His creation by His sacrificial atoning work. Let all the earth hear of His glory. Let all the earth praise His wonder. Let all the earth rejoice in His lovingkindness. For we are His witnesses called to proclaim His glory.
Children of the living God it is time that we take our place and fulfill our calling for the harvest is ripe and the workers are few. For in desperate times people call out to the God they do not know and we must be ready and prepared to lead them to the living waters – to the place that is beyond the fear of man and his world.
May His mercy and grace abound to all who call upon His name and may His strength uphold us.

Do not fear those who kill the body but are unable to kill the soul; but rather fear Him who is able to destroy both soul and body in hell.
Matt 10:28-29
