TRUE OR FALSE?

DISASTER has been on my mind for quite some  time.

This morning in my quiet time I came to Jeremiah 19:1-15 in my reading of the BIBLE, the Word of the Living God. I am reading from cover to cover. In the last verse of the chapter the LORD gives two reasons for pronouncing disaster:

1.  The people were stiff-necked.

2. The people would not listen to the word of the LORD.

Amos 3:6 came also again to my mind this morning.

Amos 3:6 says:

“WHEN DISASTER COMES TO A CITY,

HAS NOT THE LORD CAUSED IT?”

When it comes to believe that GOD IS IN EVERYTHING, the book by Catherine Marshall called SOMETHING MORE is very helpful. The first chapter is called: “YES, GOD IS IN EVERYTHING.”

1. …, “‘PLANS TO PROSPER YOU AND

2. NOT TO HARM YOU,

3. PLANS TO GIVE YOU A HOPE AND A

4. FUTURE.'” – Jeremiah 29:11

Her own words translated:

“Let us talk again about Christianity! Let us proclaim the GOSPEL with a joyful heart! How often are we doing that?”

“It’s not what you’d do with a million

If riches should ever be your lot,

But what you are doing at present

With the dollar and quarter you’ve got.” – Anon
