Yesterday (All my troubles seemed so far away)
Paul McCartney sang/wrote yesterday. All his troubles were so far away yesterday. Today there here to stay. He believes in yesterday. You could either believe in yourself or you could believe in the Lord Jesus Christ. Jesus is risen and he is real. He died on the cross so you're sins could be forgiven and he offered you eternal life. No man comes to the father but by him.
During this pandemic being the Corona virus the world has suffered and some estimated 1/2 million people died because of it. We have seen the world come to a halt. We have seen cities crippled and people in bondage because of this pandemic that some people think or believe is a plan-demic. That is up for debate. In the United States of America they have had the greatest infection rate of anywhere in the world. Some states like New York, California and now Florida have been hit really hard. Even in Canada and other countries such as Italy & China/others there has been great sorrows. During this time people lost freedoms and jobs. The economy of the world has gone up in smoke so to speak. Churches have been shut down and deemed not essential services. I'm told or I read that abortions which is murder of unborn babies has gone on during this time. Some wonder how could this be an essential service. Some pastures have complained that they couldn't serve their God/members that is an essential service while people require alcohol which is a drug or even legalized drugs and it is deemed an essential service. Yesterday all our troubles seemed so far away. Today it appears they are here to stay. You know there have been other pandemics throughout history/time. There was SARS, the Spanish flu and the bubonic plaque. Some of these devastated the whole world. I am sure during world war 1 or world war 2 that yesterday their/peoples troubles seemed so far away. Other people could relate in profound ways as well as life is a struggle at times. Did Job's troubles seem so far away yesterday? Did Joseph's troubles seem so far away yesterday. Did Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego's troubles seem so far away before they were thrown into the fire by Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon.
"Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego are figures from chapter 3 of the Book of Daniel, three Hebrew men thrown into a fiery furnace by Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon, when they refuse to bow down to the king's image; the three are preserved from harm and the king sees four men walking in the flames, "the fourth."
Recently somebody said to me live your life. What is wrong with that? The same person who said that is deceived and extremely worldly. They are simply sinful. They have a saying it's not me who lives but Christ that lives through and in me for true believers. You know the Apostles when they were fishermen prior to Christ's showing up we're living their lives. All their troubles were far away. You would ask why? Because they had to later bear a REAL cross for their master and for the WILL of God.
All your troubles could be far away even if they are here to stay. You would ask how? Give your life to Christ. Repent and believe in the gospel. The Kingdom of God is at hand. Christ loves YOU. Get Saved!
