There is more than enough evidence that the world is turning into Babylon, but there are still plenty of good things to celebrate. So take a break, if you’re feeling depressed about the looming election or Israel or the economy or the drug epidemic or homelessness or taxes or whatever keeps you awake.

Turn your thoughts to the joy of salvation and grace . Count your blessings and go love your family and friends and everyone you meet. Take a walk and listen to the birds. Go to lunch with your mom. Pray and trust.

God is still in control. Jesus Christ has overcome the world . It’s only a matter of time.

John 16:33

[33] I have said these things to you, that in me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation. But take heart; I have overcome the world.”
