Paul the Apostle was grieved by all that he saw in Athens, but his grief did not lead him to curse the darkness. He was prompted to connect with the people and share the gospel with them. He even quoted their own poets to make his point and call them to repentance saying, "He (God) has fixed a day on which he will judge the world in righteousness by a man (Jesus) who he has appointed." (Acts 17:31)
Let's allow our disappointments with our world prompt us to share the gospel with others. Pastor Ken

Our world needs hope - real hope. Not the kind of hope that comes from our government. Dostoevsky said, "To live without hope is to cease to live." Beloved, that hope we need can only come from Christ. We will overcome because he has overcome. He is risen!!!
