Month: June 2026

Today I encourage you to look up, and then look ahead, to find hope, if you are down in the doldrums, if your life appears to be on a downward slide, if you seem to be going nowhere, or if you have hit rock-bottom where, by reason of age or other circumstances, there does not appear to be anything to hope for. 

It is the human experience that the nature of life lived ‘under heaven’ (Ecclesiastes 3:1 NKJV) is that, with all the effort you may put into your life with the purpose of bringing you to an expected end, you may suddenly be confronted with challenging circumstances, seeming dead ends, or situations that appear to be contrary to what you consider to be your highest good.

The question of how to make decisions - what to do about a given situation - remains difficult among Christians who desire to live in the will of God, for discerning the will of God is not always easy.
