Dial Daily Bread

Dear Friends of "Dial Daily Bread":

Fox News noted that many common people look upon the spate of terrible disasters since the Christmas tsunami in Indonesia, our own Katrina/Rita, and now this terrible earthquake in Pakistan/Kashmir, as “signs of the times.” “Experts” discussed “disaster theology.”

 

We who write and read this mini-message are among the survivors who through our TV and news media witness “the destruction that wasteth at noonday [when] a thousand.... fall at [our] side and ten thousand at [our] right hand; but it [has not] come nigh [us].” It’s “only with [our] eyes” that we “behold and see” these horrors (Psalm 91:6-8). No! we do not think that those who perished in that 9 a.m. cataclysm (as the 200 girls in school) were “wicked” more than we; all we know for sure is that we are alive and well and 20/30,000 people just as good or “worthy” as any of us have perished.

 

Something else we know for sure: As in the days of Jeremiah, “it is of the Lord’s mercies that we are not consumed, because His compassions fail not..... He doth not afflict willingly nor grieve the children of men. To crush under His feet all the prisoners of the earth, to turn aside the right of a man before the face of the most High, to subvert a man in his cause, the Lord approveth not..... Let us search and try our ways, and turn again to the Lord. Let us lift up our heart with our hands unto God in the heavens” (Lam. 3:22-31, KJV). Our life and all we have is a gift of God’s much more abounding grace; now let us confess this and “henceforth live not unto [ourselves] but unto Him who died for [us] and rose again” (2 Cor. 5:14, 15).

 

Yes, the end is near; but there’s a lot of ministry to be done first. Now, let us minister!
