We know that all things work together for good for those who love God, who are called according to his purpose.
(Romans 8.28
NRSV)
Is it true that people today are not asking as fervently as in the past, "How can I get to heaven?" Is it true they are asking: "How can I get through this day?" Who really knows for sure. Ultimately, it really doesn't make that much difference. Even though the questions are different, they are co-dependent in a startling way! For the closer we are to Jesus Christ, the more he will have a positive effect on our faith-walk each day. I like this prayer because it captures the themes of both questions:
"O Lord, help me to remember that nothing is going to happen today, that you and I together, can't handle." Amen.
Dear God, together there is nothing we cannot handle. Amen.
