The devastation in so many parts of the world – whether it’s the blazing wild fires in LA, that have destroyed homes and lives, the pain of the lives and cities destroyed in the Middle East, or the many acts of violence that touch so many lives around our world, can feel overwhelming. It’s hard not to be shaken by the suffering around us.
How do you see all of this chaos Lord? You have a divine plan for us even though it’s hidden from our view. It doesn’t erase our pain, but in times like these, it helps to realise that You know the bigger picture, and we haven’t been forgotten. Father You tell us not to worry about anything – about what will we eat or what we will drink or what we will wear, or how many years we will live. You know our needs and we are more valuable to you than the birds of the air or the lilies of the fields. Help us to trust that you will take care of our needs, Lord. Remind us that no matter how much the world seems out of control, we are still held in Your hands. Amen!
Luke 12:22-30
