A whole lot of shakin' going on

Thought for the day:

Hebrews 12:25-29:

25 See that ye refuse not him that speaketh. For if they escaped not who refused him that spake on earth, much more shall not we escape, if we turn away from him that speaketh from heaven:

26 Whose voice then shook the earth: but now he hath promised, saying, Yet once more I shake not the earth only, but also heaven.

27 And this word, Yet once more, signifieth the removing of those things that are shaken, as of things that are made, that those things which cannot be shaken may remain.

28 Wherefore we receiving a kingdom which cannot be moved, let us have grace, whereby we may serve God acceptably with reverence and godly fear:

29 For our God is a consuming fire.


The world as we know it is being shaken. The "change we can believe in", promised by our President, is shaking the very foundations of our society. The stock market is tanking. People are losing their jobs and their retirement funds. The age of Obama is getting off to a miserable start. (I won't say I told you so.)

So what is happening? To put it simply, those who built there house upon the sand are being shaken to the core of their being. Those who built their house upon the rock (Christ Jesus) will be able to withstand the winds that are blowing and the earth that is shaking.

Lord have mercy. Lord have mercy. Lord have mercy.
