Today is the 70th anniversary of the attack on
Pearl Harbor, a day that has since lived in infamy. It was an attack that caught the nation by surprise. During the attack the United States Navy’s
Pacific Fleet managed to do a few things to avoid being damaged any more than
they were. But at the end of the day
the fleet was still quite wounded and the soldiers were quite weary and perhaps
feeling beaten. As we all know, the
U.S. Navy recovered in a big way and went on to win the war in the Pacific a
few years later.
You may have a lot going on in your life at the moment –
your own private battles. The burden
may be overwhelming and could even seem impossible. Be mindful, though, that Jesus will not allow us to be burdened
with more than we can handle. If you
offer, He will bear much of that burden for you, and in many ways He already
has. With Jesus you might still have
your battles but that just means there’s a war for you to win.
Matthew 11: 28-30
