Lord have Mercy - "Mercy Through Peace"

Most of the things we worry about never happen, and if they do they don’t amount to much.

If that is true, then why do we expend so much time and Energy In worry? Why do we lie awake at night

trying to control what is out of our control?

In this season of world wide crises, we struggle. We worry. We go to the grocery store in fear.

Everyone is a suspect and everything is toxic. We listen to the media and wring our hands.

Tis’ the season to worry..

I am not saying that we should go about life in a “Polly Annish” way. What I am saying is that we really

need to hear what Jesus says about worry and live in a His reality instead of our obsessions and

concerns.

The Jewish people have a word for peace, shalom. It is a precious world for the Jews. They greet each

other with shalom and wish shalom for one another.
