I was talking with a friend about this very subject. It just seems so bleak, and we know of so many caring wonderful Americans who ARE concerned deeply and are feeling helpless even though they may be fighting huge battles in the areas they can reach.

The image of a chemistry experiment occurred to me during the conversation which I found to be very comforting. It was of the titration experiments our chem teacher showed us in high school.

There was a large clear container of water. The teacher had a tiny bottle and told us he would change the color of the water. He dripped and dripped and dripped single drops into the container. It was endless.

Finally, ONE drop went in and the WHOLE CONTAINER CHANGED COLOR! Even though we had been told what to expect, it was still awesome to witness.

People of faith have been admonished that things will change “in the twinkling of any eye,” and it really doesn’t seem possible. But it is.

Each of us who loves freedom and righteouness is pouring into the vat of the world society as many drops of goodness that we are able to muster. I truly believe that we are in a huge “dropper” war, if I may continue the analogy. While it appears we are surrounded by unchanging fluid, the truth is, it is changing at an imperceptible rate known only to the Lord, and at some point, according to His timing, there will be the “twinkling of an eye.”

We are admonished to never fear. The Lord’s chastening was never meant for His children. However, I think it was Joshua who did urge us to get out of the way for when the miscreation topples. (”Come apart and be a separate and chosen people.”)

Be of good cheer and have HOPE.

Thank you for sharing your ponderings and concerns with us, Lloyd Marcus. Have a very blessed Easter.
