When was the last time you opened the TV and felt good?
Everywhere we turn to nowadays, there is always a story about an accident
Or someone spreading false beliefs…
Or people arguing for things that don’t matter…
The modern world has become too noisy.
It seems like it’s focused on the wrong things.
Few people talk about humility and integrity anymore.
Being a Christian nowadays can feel like an uphill battle.
It’s a journey that requires unwavering faith, determination, and resilience.
However, with God’s grace and guidance, we can rise above the challenges and be a beacon of hope and light in this ever-changing landscape.
We are surrounded by a culture that prioritizes quick gratification, self-centeredness, and material possessions.
In the midst of such a landscape, it’s too easy for our hearts to be swayed and our convictions to waver.
But fear not, for we are not alone in this struggle
Remember the story of Daniel, the young prophet who stood firm in his faith, even when faced with threatening challenges in a pagan kingdom?
Daniel’s unwavering commitment to his beliefs and his relationship with God enabled him to weather the storms that surrounded him.
We too can find strength and inspiration in his example.
To lead Christian paths in a “noisy” world, we must first and foremost build a strong foundation in our faith.
This means nurturing our relationship with God through daily prayer, Scripture study, and reflection.
As we deepen our connection with the Lord, we become more resilient and better equipped to handle the challenges that come our way.
Even in the darkest of times, we can turn to God for solace and guidance.
Just as Jesus turned to His Father during His most trying moments, so too must we seek refuge in our Creator.
God’s loving presence is always with us.
Providing us with the strength and courage to persevere.
So let us not become lured away by the noise.
Let us stay resilient and lead by example.
Well said. Blessings!

I was at a sales meeting recently where the presenter would crank up the music when someone would come to the front to spin a wheel or receive some recognition. It reminded me with some discomfort of the way many churches, especially evangelical ones, crank the “worship” music to heart-thumping volume. I always wonder, are they trying to get people to “feel” the Holy Spirit by imitating His action on their hearts? Not a good way to do imitate Him.
