and I'm feeling good

Welcome, folks, to Light of a New Day. This blog project was started back in 2010 by Jake and Sydnee. Over the years, several others have left their mark, by contributing articles, their time, and love for Christ. The blog has went through some dry spells, because - let's face it - we all have moments where posting happy thoughts isn't quite possible. For Jake and Syd both, someone shot the bird dead out of the sky. Unfortunately for them, that bird was a phoenix - and baby, it's back. What you can expect are posts. Maybe not regular, and maybe not all of them will be happy. This phoenix is an honest phoenix, life isn't perfect - and people need to stop acting and teaching like it is. This is Light of a New Day. a REAL day. If you have any thoughts or comments, would like to drop us a contribution, or would like to join our team - drop me a line at trun4rth@yahoo.com

God Bless,

When I Make it to Moab


So this is a legit problem in the world today. People who go through hard times have troubles maintaining faith. I've had this problem (but then again, I have never had a bulletproof faith) and I know many many people who have similarly had this problem. Does this problem come from our faith not being strong enough? Is it rooted in the fact that wealth has grown into SUCH a huge problem in our world? Is it maybe some of both?

What I assume is this: we are responsible for creating our own monsters. Some of these monsters can grow to be pretty darned powerful, if we allow it. In our world, it doesn't matter what faith you belong to - God's can take a beating too. Money and Wealth (especially the lacking of them) can be a demi-god for sure. God can't write us a check, and make it all better. But poverty can take your apartment or car from you, and instantly do miraculous damage to your livelihood.

I guess with all things, keep your faith strong, and you will endure.
