KRISTINA
Good Morning! My name is Kristina Crabtree Pastor of Missions and
Evangelism at Central United Methodist Church. Today is World Community
Day. On this day, we recognize the need for justice and peace in our world.
We know that we serve a God who does not create evil but brings light into
the evil in our world. We see it all over the news and quite possible with our
very eyes every day.
But, be encouraged today that this world we live in is covered in the
protection and love of God. In Ps. 46, the psalmist declares, “God is our
refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. Therefore we will not fear
though the earth gives way…” and it continues with “God is in the midst of
her.”
This great declaration is our hope in this world today. We have a God who is
not only almighty and powerful, but He is a God who is ever present among
us through the good and the bad, bringing justice and peace.
I encourage you to recognize the peace God has and is giving to us in our
world today. Let us be encourage by the hope of God in this world and not
the bad.
