Do not let your hearts be troubled or afraid. (Jn. 14:1)
Joel, Chapter 2, Verse 21-22
21 Do not fear,
O land! Delight and rejoice, for the LORD has done great things 22 Do not fear, you animals in the wild, for the
wilderness pastures sprout green grass. The trees bear fruit; the fig tree and
the vine produce their harvest.
Notice
the prophet here acknowledges that God in his power has complete control over
nature. They do not fear. They
are perfectly happy because nature does not have freewill and cooperates with
God living their existence in accordance with their created
function.
Yet
we because we were created in the image and likeness of God we have a choice.
To do good or to do evil. Daily we must decide if we are for
ourselves and pursue the things of the world or are we going to follow Christ
by picking up our cross daily.
