Jesus Is the Key

 

Luke 12: 54-56

Interpreting the Times

⁵⁴ He said to the crowd: “When you see a cloud rising in the west, immediately you say, ‘It’s going to rain,’ and it does. ⁵⁵ And when the south wind blows, you say, ‘It’s going to be hot,’ and it is. ⁵⁶ Hypocrites! You know how to interpret the appearance of the earth and the sky. How is it that you don’t know how to interpret this present time?

We expect accurate weather forecasts given all the sophisticated instruments that aid our eyes and ears, yet, how often do these forecasts fall short and display the fallibility of science? The political and medical storm in which we are living these days seems beyond interpretation.  Why?, How long?, Who's to blame? are questions that remain unanswered.leaving us depressed or grasping for SOME explanation. We search with patience trying to remain positive. Our prayer today might be that our dilemma and search might lead us to a greater peace and deeper trust in the God who does not will evil for us but longs for a closer union with us. More than just a sign, He sent Jesus to show us his love and the way to find it. Again we hear the familiar message:  Trust and do not be afraid... All shall be Well.
