Well thank God, the murderous terrorists around the world did not strike on 9/11 and what was worried about yesterday by millions did not occur, thus making God’s point that worrying about tomorrow is senseless. Matt. 6:34 – “So don’t worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will bring its own worries. Today’s trouble is enough for today.”
As I scoured the news this morning I discovered that the sun, (which is nothing more than a huge ball of 92.1% Hydrogen and 7.8% Helium), has experienced a solar flare. Every now and then, it spits out a giant burst of radiation called a coronal mass ejection. So this huge energy blast will arrive on earth on Saturday and space weather experts aren’t exactly sure what it will do when it finally arrives on earth after its long trip through outer space; however they think communications could be knocked out and various other disruptions occur in some of our lives.
Okay a huge mass of radiation is headed our way, what can we do about it? I don’t know, maybe we should run for the hills, or build an underground bunker, or go to the grocery store and buy out all of their bread, generators, and flashlights???
Hmmm . . . Maybe we should put on some sun screen.
Sigh . . . Here we go again; something new to worry about.
We like to think of ourselves as being pretty important in the big scheme of things, but events like this can help us to understand that as Bill Bright used to say “we are about as unimportant as a microbe on the back of a flea, on a dog’s back, in the Master’s grand mansion”.
I just read another article that stated that the planet is now getting colder. So will this finally debunk the global warming frenzy that was in vogue with the liberals, (and those steering business to politicians like Al Gore who are making millions in the solar energy industry).
There is not a single chance that they will give up; instead they have just conveniently changed their diatribe from “global warming” to a new rant of “climate change” and the cash registers keep ringing.
It reminds me of how small and insignificant we are when compared to the Universe. I saw a cartoon that showed two cavemen dressed in animal skins standing in a cave. One was proudly holding his new invention, a bow and arrow. His buddy was sadly shaking his head as he stated that ever since he’d invented that darn thing they’d experienced non-stop rain.
It must amuse God to see these pseudo intellectuals pontificate on His magnificent creation. Psalm 2:4 states: But the one who rules in heaven laughs. The Lord scoffs at them.
John Piper wrote “It is about the greatness of God, not the significance of man. God made man small and the universe big to say something about Himself.” And yet these pea brained intellectuals don’t listen. Instead they have it all figured out and we dare not say anything that goes against their “manmade” axioms or we will be promptly accused of being one of those people who still believes that the earth is flat.
Bah . . . Who cares . . .
Have a great weekend and go to Honey Lake Church this weekend and worship our great Creator with award winning Christian country singer and man of God Clifton Jansky. His song “From Amarillo by Morning to Amazing Grace” is not just one of Clifton Jansky’s major award winning hits in Christian Country music, but it is his life story.
One of the lines in the song says, “Little did I know, God had a plan that was bigger than Tennessee.” Yeah just maybe God’s plan is just a wee bit bigger than Tennessee . . .
The fun begins at 11 a.m. right after Sunday school at 9:30. Join us, you will enjoy it immensely.
Job 26:14
Behold, these are but the outskirts of his ways, and how small a whisper do we hear of him! But the thunder of his power who can understand?”
