"It's a Material World...Forever Changed!"
The hit song, that always rang a little hollow for me, rang a little MORE hollow this year - for you see, we now live in a world that's been forever changed...9-11, in all its horror and tragedy, opened many an eye to see beyond the material world, to look beyond the fashions, the foods, the fun, the frolic of a materialistic world spinning out of control. Pleasure flights were canceled, vacations put on hold, new fashion not now so glamorous--people flocked to churches, synagogues and mosques to find something MORE than material! Material wasn't enough; material didn't satisfy; material didn't have salve for the open wounds--it was empty and worthless in a world forever changed.
Of COURSE! Life IS more than material--it IS more than fashions, foods, fun and frolic--Life--REAL LIFE--is knowing Jesus, the One who NEVER changes--the One who is the same yesterday, today and forever. He's the answer to the hollow and the hurts of humanity right now...as we cope in a world forever changed by the hurts and horrors of 9-11. Let us look to HIM "from whence cometh our help"--He will NEVER EVER change--you can count on it!
Let's change our tune to "Yesterday, Today, Forever, Jesus Is the Same"--for He IS--and He will be there for you--whatever your need today!
...and that's just a faith-filled thought or two from my heart to yours!
"I Believe"--from Songs of Praise.

A Christian crisis devotional in light of the tragedy of terrorism that shook the world on September 11, 2001, at the World Trade Center, New York City, and the Pentagon, Washington, D. C. May HIS Name be OUR "Tower of Strength" in the days ahead. Be uplifted as you read this devotional, published semi-weekly (each Tuesday and Friday) for your inspiration and encouragement.
An Encouraging Word for Times Like These
The Thanksgiving Day parade wound itself past the Macy's reviewing stand, stopping long enough for each parade entry to "do their thing"--and this one certainly did! We were reminded that "It's a Material World" with all the glamor and hoopla of what was once a hit-parade special--in "the world that was"!

The Authentic Guide to New York City

A song and a prayer for His all-sufficient grace
"Lord, my world has changed...it's a more sobering, spiritually-inclined world with people looking for healing, help--and hope. I know it is only found in YOU, Lord, the one who never changes. I need that security today--my world needs that security today--help me to pass it on to someone in MY world, in need today, In Jesus' Name, Amen."
All Scriptures are taken from the King James Version of the Holy Bible.
