The times in which we live are turbulent. Politically and economically, things are unstable. Wars rage across the world. Our own country is involved in a cold civil war (to quote David Starkey). And yet in the midst of it all, we hear of the quiet revival that is going on amongst the 16 to 24 year olds. Perhaps it is this turbulence that is driving them to seek some kind of spiritual reality to bring peace to their troubled souls.
For all of us, our hope is not in the world, or in politicians. It is in Jesus. It is only he who can guide us through these days. It is only he who can bring hope to the hopeless. As we seek to make his name known through the Alpha Course, and as we renew our commitment to pray for revival in these days, may God’s presence be with each one of us to bring peace and hope amidst the storm.
God bless.
