Changing weather

As I live on the western coast of Norway unstable and changing weather is part of my everyday life. We have had some beautiful frosty days with a thin layer of snow covering everything. The dream of a traditional white Christmas seemed to be within reach. Today is a different story. It is mild, windy and rainy. The hope of a white Christmas vanished with the rain. But we will celebrate Christmas and rejoice in the wonder of incarnation. God with us!

The traditional religious weather is also changing rapidly in our society these days. Traditional Christian values are under stormy attacks from fundamentalist secular organisations and the red and green goverment coalition. Ungodly laws has been introduced. The society has become secular and hostile towards traditional Christian values. Many religious people are succumbing to the spirit of the present evil age and compromising their faith.
But those who wait on the Lord are renewed in their commitment to obey the Word of God. They find new strength and even boldness in the face of the strong opposition to the commandments of God from society. In fact the Bible believers are lifting their wings as eagles and soar to new heights in this present stormy weather. They know that God is in control and that everything will work together for good for those who love God. They know that God has determined to bring everything in the entire universe under the Lordship of Jesus Christ. They know who will have the last word!
We live in times of unstable weather. Many changes are taking place. Believers are facing many uncommon challenges. Many false prophets and unclean spirits are operating in the religious arena. God is not behind every spectacular events that are going on.
