Fear and Faith

I am sensing a certain amount of fear and anxiety in our country as a result of the recent financial credit crisis. Fear is contagious. It spreads like wildfire. Once it goes, "whosh", it is hard to contain.

While it is not on the level of the weeks after 911, many are turning to God during this time. That is not a bad thing. In fact, it is the right thing. The proper thing.

And the amazing thing about God is that even though many have forgotten him or even turned their backs on him, when they do turn back to God He accepts them and receives them as if they have never left. Such is the unconditional love of God.

I can remember back in 2005 which was a year in which nature demonstrated its fury. Hurricanes, tornadoes, floods, and thunderstorms tore their way across the country from one end to the other.

In the midst of that turbulence, Jay Leno asked:

"Are we sure this is a good time to take God out of the Pledge of Allegiance?"

Now is not the time to play around with God or Christianity or faith or following Christ.
