As 1 Corinthians 7:31 said "The scene of this world is changing." They are just applicable today as much of what we see happening these days is frightening.
News report are filled with accounts of increasing crime, terrorist activities, secular and religious strife, ethnic conflict, deadly diseases and devastating natural disasters. Many die.
Bible indicated that this climate of fear and apprehension would intensify. Luke 21:25,26 foretold a time in the future when there would be "anguish of natural, not knowing the way out...while men become faint out of fear and expectation of the things coming upon the inhabited earth."
Where can relief from such stresses and anxieties can be found? In the word of God. The bible was inspired by God, "...Father of tender mercies and the God of all comfort, who comforts us in all tribulation." (2 Corinthians 1:3,4).
In God's Word we find reliable counsel on how to handle problems, guidance to help us avoid many distressing situations, and a comforting message of hope for a much brighter future.
Learn to trust in Jehovah God with all our heart and do not lean upon our own understanding. In all your ways take notice of Him, and he himself will make your path straight. (Prov 3:5,6)
