n the US many people are so caught up into politics that they seem to focus on this more than on God.Some are worried for the future. That is understandable. Many love their country. That is good. But when hope is placed in politics and politicians, rather than the better outcome, it is best to put your ultimate hope in Christ.

All things work together for the good of those who love the Lord, who are called according to God’s purposes.

And the prophet said, Listen, all you people of Judah and Jerusalem! Listen King Jehoshaphat! This is what the LORD says:
Don’t be afraid! Don’t be discouraged by this mighty army,
for the battle is not yours, but God’s.”

It is always best to check with God before speaking on God’s behalf. Listen to God as God reminds us of his divine presence in the past and assures us of his presence in the future.

When Psalm 23:1 came to mind as I read my Bible, it struck me in a different way and on a deeper level than ever before. As we each go through difficult times of testing, our Faith has no choice but to grow.
