Have you been feeling the weight of the world on your shoulders lately?
Maybe this will help...
Keep your sense of humor. Don't lose your ability to laugh.
I know, things look awfully serious out there.
There's COVID, social unrest, the economy... and now some pro sports teams have decided they aren't going to play.
It seems like the world is falling apart.
Yet that's just the thing. It might appear the world is out of control, but it's still firmly in God's grip.
Psalm 2 is a good reminder of this. And it gives us reason to laugh.
This psalm describes a time when the nations are in an uproar. The people are devising all kinds of vain things. And the rulers of the earth are throwing off all godly restraints.
Crazy times.
So what is the Lord's response to all this?
He laughs.
Because no matter what shenanigans earthlings are up to, it can't disturb the truth that His Son is installed as King, ruling over it all.
And this reality should loosen us up, help us breathe easier, and make us laugh too.
No matter what kind of craziness is going on in the world, the Lord has it covered.
