Our Sovereign God

it's been hard to read the news recently. it seems as if everything is falling apart. the economy is crumbling. there are wars and rumors of wars throughout africa and the middle east. people are being persecuted for all sorts of reasons and crime is on the rise. our world leaders are corrupt, compromising and unwilling to value human life.

but our God is sovereign.

Psalm 103: 19-22 says:

The LORD has established His throne in the heavens, and His sovereignty rules over all. Bless the LORD, you His angels. Mighty in strength, who performs His word, obeying the voice of His word! Bless the LORD, all you His hosts. You who serve Him, doing His will. Bless the LORD, all you works for His, in all places of His dominion; Bles the LORD, O my soul!

Everything may fall apart. Things can get a lot worse. But God is sovereign "over all" and I know that His hand is there.
