Mankind’s history is replete with dozens upon dozens of boom and bust
cycles. Additionally, there have been prophets of doom and gloom stating
with absolute certainty the world was ending soon and we are without hope
and there is nothing we can do about it, or we better all pull together
to save ourselves before it is too late. These joyless individuals have
been around since man first started keeping records. The one thing they
all have in common is their perfect batting average: 0. Every single
one has been wrong, the world hasn‘t ended, their dire predictions not
with standing. Today’s doom and gloomers are as wrong as those who stood
in the center of Rome prophesying the end of days 2000 years ago. How
do I know? I believe in God. As the Lord's Prayer states so
clearly, He is “Our Father" in every sense. Would you allow your children to be
exterminated if it was in your power to prevent it? So, just for today,
when you feel the sadness and fear the secular world dishes out
unremittingly, turn to this truth: We are all children of God, and
God has all power, bringing only good, that negative conditions are but
passing illusions that dissolve when the shutters of fear and doubt are
thrown open and the sunlight of the Spirit streams in, so when the next “expert” delivers solemnly the latest prophecy of
doom, we can smile because we really do believe in a Power Greater than ourselves.
