Today we welcome Ron and Laurianne Conkling who join the Tampa Bay Church family as our newest staff members. Listen in as Ron shares about the exciting yet uncertain journey one embarks on when becoming a Christian and what it means to imitate the humility of Christ.
Job 38:1 Then the Lord answered Job out of a storm. He said: “Who is this that darkens my counsel with words without knowledge? Brace yourself like a man; I will question you, and you shall answer me. “Where were you when I laid the earth’s foundation?”
Why did God make our planet seismically active (subject to earthquakes) and meteorologically unstable (stormy)?
Psalm 99:1 The Lord reigns, let the nations tremble; He sits enthroned between the cherubim, let the earth shake. Great is the Lord in Zion; He is exalted over all the nations. Let them praise your great and awesome name- He is holy.
God made our earth to be shaky and stormy (also beautiful and functional) because He, who is great and awesome, wants us, who are small and weak, to seek Him. Simply stated, “because He loves us”.
When the storms blow and the earth shakes we are to seek God. In fact we are to seek Him always. Secondly, we are to help those who are most impacted, both physically and spiritually.
Matthew 25:34 “Then the king will say to those on his right, Come, you who are blessed by my Father; take your inheritance, the kingdom prepared for you since the creation of the world. For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me.”
In Acts 16:26 Paul experienced and earth quake and took it as an opportunity to baptize a family.
In times of natural disaster, may we see the opportunity to care and to share.
