Politically, this world is a wreck. Despite efforts to unite it, it falls further apart. Even individual nations are coming unglued.

Morally and spiritually, this world is a catastrophe. Deception and corruption multiply. So do sadness, fear, and uselessness.

Someday, that will change.

“O let the nations be glad and sing for joy: for thou shalt judge the people righteously, and govern the nations upon earth. Selah” (Psalm 67:4).

Soon?

Meanwhile, though God doesn’t rule visibly over the nations and their affairs, let Him rule over me.

Then I can experience gladness and then I can sing for joy despite living amid a worsening catastrophic wreck.

Long, long ago in a faraway place, God easily made a way through impossible circumstances.

And He did it in a way His people could neither foresee nor imagine.

“He turned the sea into dry land: they went through the flood on foot: there did we rejoice in him” (Psalm 66:6).

That’s how God worked. Then.

That’s how God works. Now.

But will I walk with Him right up to the impossible place?

If I don’t, I will never be able to walk with Him through it.
