Philippians 3:10,

10 That I may know him, and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, being made conformable unto his death;

What is happening with your daily walk in the lord as the end nears? Circumstances and Situations that were easily overcome at one time seem to stay around longer or overlap into another situation. We are always in some sort of C&S in our daily walk. They have intensified in the believers life as well as a non-believers, why is that? For non-believers it can bring them to Christ, for believers it causes growth into Christ living, opportunities to live and understand Christ as life. Never look at what happens to you in the world the same again. The world is perfect for what it is your father is doing, it is perfect in bringing individuals to Christ and teaching them Christ. That should make you shout, everything working for the good of salvation.

Nothing is ever out of your fathers plan of salvation, no matter how bad or no matter how good. Our father has fixed the world to bring forth Christ and we struggle to see it, the world can't see it, Christians have a hard time seeing it. The time for sound teaching of the word of God is now like never before. I heard of the gang shooting in a Atlanta mall this weekend, no one died but what came to mind is those that sat in the food court and heard shots ran for their life. They had to be treated for anxiety and heart conditions, and the scripture came to mind that says the day would come when "mens hearts would fail them because of fear." I'm not making light of the situation we are all human with conditions.

Most human beings know nothing about Christ life living, they know self but not much more than that. In defense of that there has not been much understanding given to Christ living. The good news it will get alot worse, the world is not going to fix itself it is going to get worse. First we get fixed, the beam out of our eye, and them we may have something to say to the world. We cannot be like the world such as; living in fear, but separated to get renewed in mind and then you will be trusted to speak for your father on different levels. If you feel as though you just really have nothing to say or don't know what to do, it may be your father does not trust you yet to handle certain family business. He knows who he can trust, when we get through with our religious games he is ready to move you on. But you will not have any depth until he can trust you.
