Today's devotional reading for:
Wednesday, Sep 2, 2020 The Age Of Anxiety
“But the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Do not fear therefore; you are of more value than many sparrows.”
— Luke 12:7
A couple of years after the end of World War II, the British author W. H. Auden wrote a poem about the age in which he lived.
Auden entitled this poem “The Age of Anxiety.”
Amazingly, the label still describes our time though Auden coined it half a century ago.
Do you ever lie awake at night, worrying about this and anxious about that?
If so, you know how distressing that experience can be, tossing and turning, trying to sleep while your concerns hound you.
But if you’re a Christian, you needn’t allow worry to plague you.
Instead, you can turn over your anxieties to your heavenly Father, casting them on the One who cares for you.
I heard about one Christian man who envisioned lifting each of his big burdens, like a large stone, and handing it to Jesus.
When Christ took hold of it, suddenly the rock shrank to a pebble.
Our worries do indeed shrink when we leave them in God’s care.
A missionary was teaching a Hindu woman, who had just accepted Christ, how to pray the Lord’s Prayer.
The woman prayed, “Our Father, which art in heaven.”
Then she said, “Stop! Do you mean that God is our Father?”
The missionary said, “Yes.” She said, “That’s enough!
If God is our Father, then there’s nothing to worry about!”
Do you remember being a child, trusting your parent or guardian to take care of all your concerns?
Remember how, no matter how frightened you might have been, all your fears dissipated when you put your hand into the hand of a loving parent?
In the same way, we have a divine and heavenly Parent on whom we can still cast our burdens, no matter how big or how small they are.
Do you have a burden causing you to worry today?
Hand it to God, your Father who cares for you.
Allow Him to give you the peace that comes from trusting Him with everything that concerns you.
“When you have nothing left but God, then for the
first time you become aware that God is enough.” Maude Royden | ||||||

Christ Jesus prayed that all those who would believe in Him would be ONE, just as He and the Father are ONE; that they be brought to complete unity so that the world would know that He was sent by the Father. (John 17:20-23)
Heaven Is Our Destination Where We Will Be ONE With The Lord Forever
Today, we are in The Season Of The Last Generation. The Birth Pains that Christ Jesus spoke about are currently under way, including natural and unnatural disasters. They will be ever increasing. Because of the increase of wickedness, the love of most will grow cold. Social, economic and political turmoil will be ever increasing, causing people's hearts to be weighed down with dissipation, drunkenness and the anxieties of life. An apostasy within the Church of God is currently under way. This will all reach a climax with Satan revealing his Antichrist and requiring that everyone worship him; That every one receive his "mark" in order to buy or sell; The new currency of the New World Order, the New Tower of Babel.
Tom's books include: Called By Christ To Be ONE, The Time Of The END, The Season Of The Last Generation, Worship God In Spirit And In Truth, Daniel And The Time Of The END, and Overcoming The Evil One. They are available at amazon.com. They can also be read without cost by clicking on link: Toms Books.
To receive Christ Jesus as a child by faith is the highest human achievement.
Today, the Bride Of Christ is rising up in every nation in the world! Giving Glory to Her Savior and King, Christ Jesus!
Today, the world is Raging against God, Rushing toward Oblivion! Save yourself from this Corrupt Generation!
Today, America is being ground to powder because of it's SIN against God!
