Who Can We Trust

This week, the Church I attend is currently doing Vacation Bible School, or VBS. Vacation Bible School is when churches hold events that help introduce children to basic Christian Theology.  There is teaching, videos, food, and games. It is a lot of work, but it is fun working with the children.  Our theme this year is “You can trust in Jesus.” As I said, the lessons have very basic themes.

If you have been watching the news on television, you know the world seems to be running out of control, like a rockslide with boulders bouncing everywhere. Sometimes, I start to wonder what could happen next. It would be easy to just stay in bed in the morning and cover my head. There are many mornings I am tempted to do that. There are wars and rumors of wars, severe storms, and people are chasing chaos like it was a rugby ball.

So, what do we do, or what should we do? The youngsters in Vacation Bible School are hearing the answer this week. We can put our trust in Jesus. No matter how crazy things get Jesus has the answer. He died on the cross and gave us eternal hope. No matter what happens He has his arms around us and will give us eternal peace. So just maybe the lessons the children are getting this week are not so basic, because they are the lessons that can stand up to everything the world can throw at us. In the end, our trust in Jesus is our salvation. He did not come into the world to condemn it, but that the world might be saved. Trust in Jesus.

 

May God Bless You,
