  • In an uncertain world with so much unrest, it's hard at times to find encouragement when things are so dark. A million and one voices with many different opinions bombard us daily. How should we view the global unrest as a Christian, and even when things are upside down... still find peace and joy in life?

    This video is not meant to stir up more controversy in the comments... or to promote apathy in viewpoints towards everything that is going on. Let's just remember to be aware and wise, yet keep our primary focus on the One who holds the world in His hands.

    I have been seeing as of late people thinking you are either a believer in Christ or science. Personally, I believe our Lord created scientists and they bless us with their gifts. I was a bit concerned when I saw the topic of this video, but I am very thankful that I watched it. Thank you!

    This was comforting, respectful to all, and a true encouragement to me personally. You truly are a blessing to this community and those who know you. Be kind, Walk with Jesus Daily, and be prepared but not consumed! I would love to see more videos like this, you truly do have a way about you when you talk of scripture and God.
    I also loved what Nolan said - no matter your view, we all still need Jesus in our lives.
    Thank you so much for making this video!
    Prayers and love to you and all watching, Candy

    Proverbs 3:5-6 have been verses that comforted me over the past few months. They read: "Trust in the LORD with all your heart; do not depend on your own understanding. Seek His will in all you do, and He wills how you which path to take." I plan to go back and rewatch the ending of the video so I can write down all the scriptures you quoted.

      Does not the Word of God clearly exhort, Acts 1:7, ".....'IT IS NOT FOR YOU TO KNOW THE TIMES OR DATES THE FATHER HAS SET BY HIS OWN AUTHORITY.'" It is a pity the rebellious will not accept the infallible & irrefutable Word of God.

    Wonderful video and much needed. Everyday, I read The Word and pray for peace. At 67 years of age, my husband is 70; we have lived through many turbulent and historical times. Every time, I find myself experiencing fear, I say to myself (or out loud if I'm home), "God is working." It does help. God bless you all.

    Wonderfully well said! I totally agree! Have to say Ive never witnessed, or felt so much fear in all my life. It can seem suffocating at times to be around people who are ruled by fear. Fear also lowers the immune system and makes people susceptible to all kinds of sickness. Praying and wearing the Full Armor of God!

I have been reading a book of daily quotes from the bible and a meditation. In each of these, it calls for us to concentrate on Jesus and not the things around us that can blind us or keep us from relying on God. Thanks you for sharing your thoughts, they are my thoughts as well. "Be not anxious about anything!" Blessings to you and your men!

    Isaiah 30:15 your strength will be in keeping calm and showing trust. This is our yearly text which we are being urged to focus on during theses difficult times. I find it a very good reminder to help me stay calm and at peace. It’s so easy to get caught up in the debates going on these days but I choose to be mindful of what I watch on tv or social media and keep it to a minimum. I know a lot of people are frightened by what is going on in the world and becoming so stressed and anxious. You did a great job of encouraging people to turn back to the scriptures and find the peace of God.

    I could not help but be impressed with the respect you have for everyone. Perhaps your words will ease my heart and remove the feelings of hatred I sometimes have for those who seem to me to have it so wrong.

    Thanks for the video! We also believe God will not try to 'trick' anyone when the time comes. I feel we will recognize it when the time come. Being aware of happenings & encouraging each other goes a long way!

    I was glad to hear you say you might be wrong, I so agree with that. I have my own opinions but would be the first to say I could be wrong and I find it really hard to listen to anybody who professes to “know” the truth
