It’s a Jungle Out There!

by Max Lucado

“My help comes from the LORD, who made heaven and earth.”
Psalm 121:2

For many people, life is—well, life is a jungle. Not a jungle of trees and beasts…Our jungles are comprised of the thicker thickets of failing health, broken hearts, and empty wallets…We don’t hear the screeching of birds or the roaring of lions, but we do hear the complaints of neighbors and the demands of bosses…

Whether you are a lamb lost on a craggy ledge or a city slicker alone in a deep jungle, everything changes when your rescuer appears.

Your loneliness diminishes, because you have fellowship. Your despair decreases, because you have vision. Your confusion begins to lift, because you have direction.

You haven’t left the jungle. The trees still eclipse the sky, and the thorns still cut the skin…It hasn’t changed, but you have. You have changed because you have hope. And you have hope because you have met someone who can lead you out. JESUS...
 
AMEN! We do live in a jungle, It's called Earth, and I pray Jesus will soon lead us out! :friends:

A jungle it is my friend!
Glory to God that we may serve our King in this jungle! Glory to God that He can and will be glorified in every situation of His children's lives! Glory to God that we can tread upon snakes and scorpions (the forces of darkness) and yet remain unharmed!
Hallelujah! A jungle it is but we carry the Words of the King!
 
I can personally testify to being led out of a jungle by the Lord Jesus. Check my profile to read the story.
