We, each of us , goes about our business, and the news comes, and we go numb.

Life is not without emotion.        Yet sometimes we wish it were .   From the news of someone dying to, a terminal diagnosis,   every day offers news.    Yet, to face it is another fact.    What to do?   Where to turn?   It is not easy to realize we do not belong to ourselves, but we do not.   We belong to God.   He made us, and He has the reigns.   Resigning oneself to this, allows us to realize He will call us home, and that it is only a life on loan.

If we do  realize we belong to God, we can realize He is in charge.       So when the diagnosis is not good, or the loved one died unexpectedly, then we know God has His reasons.

Without God, we are filled with anger.   It still hurts when disappointment comes, but when we believe, and know He loves us, He gives us His peace, and we can endure the trial.

Trial, is a test of faith!   Sometimes it is just a test, and sometimes it is for real.   Come what may, God reigns.

What do you do when news, and disappointment come?     We know not when.   Peace is everything in life.   Peace comes from believing and trusting in God.   He loves unconditionally.    When called upon for forgiveness, He is there.   Forgiveness is joy inside out.   It is unexplainable.   Yet real.

To pick up a bottle, or pop some pill, whatever the choice, it will not remove the fact:  Life is temporary!   God loves, God waits,  God gives and God reigns.

Come to God.    Come what may,  He will calm you,  and love you.

Book of Luke: Jesus Speaks: Chapter:  6 verses : 46-49

46)   “Why do you call me ‘ LORD,   LORD,’ and not put into practice what I teach you?   47) Any man who desires to come to me will hear my words and put them into practice.   I will show you with whom he is to be compared.   48) He may be likened to  the man who,  in building a house, dug deeply and laid the foundation on a rock.   When the floods came the torrent rushed in on that  house, but failed to shake it because of its solid foundation.   49) On the other hand, anyone who has heard my words but not put them into practice is without  any foundation.   When the torrent rushed upon it, it immediately fell in and was completely destroyed.”
