Summary
Martin Luther once said, he said something to the effect of when times are good, when times are good, don't get too comfortable, because the difficulties will come. And when you are going through the difficult times, don't despair, because the Lord will send the relief of the good times. But he also said when difficult times come, don't despair because God will bring the good times again. And so we saw how in those cycles of life, and indeed what we're experiencing right now with this pandemic, in these difficult times, we know that God will bring good because indeed God is the Lord. How about Romans chapter 6 verse 23, Romans chapter 6 verse 23, for the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord. And so when we see it in the average people that Jesus chose, we turn the camera then back on us and we see it in ourselves times in which we're just afraid, times in which we're troubled and times that we just feel despair.
