"Praise His glorious name forever. Let the whole earth be filled with His glory!" Psalm 72:19

Reading or listening to the news is certainly not the best way for us as believers to set our mood for the day. The political scene, the economic scene, the crime scene, the moral decay - not a very pretty picture these days. We find ourselves crying out to God and asking Him if He sees all this and why is He allowing it to happen? We know in our hearts that God alone is the answer for all good things in this world. Sometimes when I am looking up into the early morning sky, just before the sunrise and my quiet time with the Lord is complete, I wonder how it will be when Jesus returns and the whole earth cannot deny Him any longer. The entire world WILL be filled with His amazing glory. Can't you just hear the angels singing? Can't you just see the brilliance and majesty of that moment? It is thrilling to think about that day. And it is our great responsibility to pray towards that time. But we must do all we can NOW to share Christ's message of hope for the world and for our own little circles, and to live His message of grace, mercy and forgiveness. The whole world is watching, and those closest to us are watching intently.
