Sometimes we wonder if we can live righteously and overcome in a world with such prevalent, rampant, and escalating evil! We certainly are concerned about the spiritual success of our children, grandchildren, loved ones and neighbors!
Passages that predict moral and spiritual problems in the “last days” deeply concern us! … (For instance…)
“Understand this, that in the last days there will come times of difficulty. For people will be lovers of self, lovers of money, proud, arrogant, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, heartless, unappeasable, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not loving good, treacherous, reckless, swollen with conceit, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, having the appearance of godliness, but denying its power. Avoid such people. For among them are those who creep into households and capture weak women, burdened with sins and led astray by various passions, always learning and never able to arrive at a knowledge of the truth.” (2 Timothy 3:1-7)
But in the face of all of this, I read a wonderful inspired, uplifting word of assurance this morning during my time of “coffee with the Lord!”
“For THE GRACE OF GOD HAS APPEARED, bringing salvation for all people, training us to renounce ungodliness and worldly passions, and TO LIVE SELF-CONTROLLED, UPRIGHT, AND GODLY LIVES IN THE PRESENT AGE, waiting for our blessed hope, the appearing of the glory of our great God and Savior Jesus Christ, who gave himself for us to redeem us from all lawlessness and to purify for himself a people for his own possession who are zealous for good works!” (From Titus 2:11–14 ESV)
Hey, take heart! HIS GRACE IS SUFFICIENT!!!
