Lions, Tigers, And Bears Oh My!

“The LORD is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? The LORD is the stronghold of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?”Psalm 27:1

Have you watched any disaster movies lately? Well I happened across one ironically about a worldwide pandemic where the entire world minus one US Navy Battleship had been eradicated by this disease sweeping the world. The series was filmed in 2018 entitled ‘The Last Ship’ starring the late Eric Dane and albeit a little far fetched after our Covid 19 ordeal it made you think. 

First God is on the throne. Nothing happens to us He does not allow. He does not want us fearful biting our nails and reaching for handguns to commit suicide as one sailor did in this fictional series. You can decide what you choose to think about and what you take into your mind. I normally don’t veg out on corny disaster movies but it did give me an idea for my writing. 

Hollywood can churn out some real thrillers and blockbusters but the thing to remember is unless it says ‘based on a true story’ or ‘true story’ it is fake and is  there to reel in viewers,no pun intended,  wanting to be scared. Brother and sisters feed your mind on wholesome entertainment that makes you feel good. As Halloween approaches in just a couple months train yourself in godliness not a diet of horror films. Parents of small children be cautious of books they are allowed to fill their minds with in this approaching season of ghosts and witches. Keep your thoughts on things above. Now go have a good day. 

PRAYER: Lord Jesus help me not hyper focus on the fear the culture tries to feed me but instead to read your word and trust in you. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
