America, and, in fact, the world, is in the midst of a "storm" this very hour. These are unsettling times as we face the potential for World War III or some kind of nuclear or cyber attack, terrible inflation, open borders, anti-Semitism on the rise, inflated grocery prices, the continual possibility of another pandemic, government corruption on every level, the dangers of AI technology in the hands of evil people, the expansion of extreme Islam and Communism into the Western world, the push for globalism, the apostacy of much of Christendom ... and on and on. How are Christians to respond? Well, actually, the same way we should respond to all the rest of life's storms! It is often said if you are not in a storm, it is either because you have just come through one or one is waiting ahead! Storms are a natural part of living in a sin-cursed world. There is no way to avoid them, but there is a very calm way to "ride them out" free of fear and full of faith - not faith in ourselves (or we will surely sink); not faith in all the resources of government and science (we will still sink, for there are storms greater than mankind's combined intelligence and strength), but faith in the one Person Who is able to guide us safely through any and all storms. There is no reason to fear the furies and floods of life if you have invited Jesus Christ "on board" to be the Captain of your ship! He will see you safely to your final destination, no matter what is happening in your personal life or in the world today.
