I've been thinking more about it. And, yes, it may indeed take a series of terrifying events to awaken humanity to the reality that the things of this world are only temporary and meaningless when compared with eternity.
Yes, a period of "fearfulness and trembling" will come one day. Then many will awaken from their self-imposed comfort zones and the illusory "American Dream" only to realize the need for a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. In addition, they will finally understand that knowing Him is worth more than anything the world has to offer.
For now, however, with the presidential elections scheduled for later this year, many are looking to the politicians to save our nation. And "hope" has become a popular buzzword. But placing one's hope in someone else, besides God, is vain. Our hope and trust should be in Him, only.
As the Scripture says, "Trust in God at all times. Pour out your heart before Him; God is a refuge for us" (Psalm 62:8).
