Most of us have had a crisis per two. Experiencing chaos and trauma seems to be a natural part of living, even if we call ourselves ‘Christian’. There is no guarantee for a stress free life. If we seriously follow Christ and live the way of the Kingdom, we may even experience more trouble. But there are rock solid reasons to live for Christ, trusting that good will result because of our faithfulness and trust in His plan. We may not realize what Hos Ian doing but it’s sure reality that He ia working. We live in a world with tension between the sun in us and around us, and the reality of being led by the Holy Spirit.
“There is grace for everything: grace to come and grace to go, grace to speak and grace to keep silent, grace to mourn and grace to dance, grace to weep and grace to laugh, grace to pack and grace to unpack, grace to be sick and grace to heal, grace to plant and grace to harvest, grace to tear down and grace to build up, grace to love and grace to hate, grace to live and grace to die. From beginning to end, life becomes a rhapsody of grace. Even the desire for grace comes by grace.” - Robert E. Coleman, The Heart of the Gospel
