Do you ever have that paranoid feeling that someone is "out to get you"....Like you are a bug and someone is gunning for you with a giant windshield with your name on it and you just can't fly fast enough to avoid being squashed?
Sometimes I do. It's like that Gary Larson cartoon with those deer talking in the forest. The one deer says to the other deer (who has a large target in red on his chest) "Bummer of a birthmark Hal!"
Sometimes you just have those days where it feels like the world is out to get you...and sometimes you're right.

33"I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world."
It's comforting to know that the Creator of the world has everything under control. God wants us to rest in His perfect peace. Life is not all champagne and roses, but God does give us those moments of peace. It's in those moments, when everything slows down, that you can let go, and fall into his presence and really feel comfort and even hope. Hope that circumstances and events and trials are working together for your good... Don't just find that happy place...pray for it. Peace. -Rigel
