Staying close to the Holy Spirit He will instruct and guide us to speak and do the will of our Father as it should be done on earth as it is in heaven. Especially in these very conflicting times, let’s not forget what time we are living in when there is an overabundance of information most of which is “trivial or outright wicked secular distraction and brainwashing;” and so much distraction can keep us from our mission along with succumbing to many temptations! People are becoming entrenched in folly, mischief and evil too, all part of the plan by the prince of this world to lead as many as possible to perdition and eternal damnation. Remember before the Second Coming there is to be a great apostasy or falling away from the church of our Lord Jesus Christ as you and I along with multitudes already see this happening.
I always love to think of the 23rd psalm which is my favorite, whenever I get troubled or too worried about this errant and often confusing world, because that prayer really tells us clearly we have nothing to fear if we are doing the Lord’s will and following Him; nothing can or will harm us because our souls belong to Him and he “saved” us from all this futile vanity!
“Vanity of vanities, said the Preacher; vanity of vanities, all is vanity.” Ecclesiastes 1:2
This excerpt from the 23rd psalm really assures me giving me peace as I hope it always does you as well.
“Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,
I will fear no evil,
for you are with me;”
Amen.
Brother in Christ Jesus,

So perfectly True Brother! To me what you said there is like a foundational block of our Christian faith; stating that genuine trust in Him alone is everything; he is the Alpha and the Omega so nothing else really matters if we believe in Him!
Romans 8:31 “What then shall we say in response to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us?”
Great reminders here Friend! Amen.
Matthew 19-26 23 “Then Jesus said to His disciples, “Assuredly, I say to you that it is hard for a rich man to enter the kingdom of heaven. 24 And again I say to you, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God.”
25 When His disciples heard it, they were greatly astonished, saying, “Who then can be saved?”
26 But Jesus looked at them and said to them, “With men this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.”
