*Hebrews 12:28

Devo Fuel: {Not Be Shaken}

"A kingdom which cannot be shaken" (Hebrews 12:28)

September 11
will be engraved on the memories of people everywhere for generations to come. I remember myself walking the campus of Chico state in the early morning, I could see the sullen look on peoples faces as I walk by and wondering what was going on. It wasn't till I reach the student Union and piered over the shoulders of fellow students fixated on the TV and saw the images of the Twin Towers.

On that terrible day when terrorists commandeered several passenger planes and killed thousands of innocent people in New York and Washington, we began to realize the true depths of evil in the human heart, and the uncertainty and fragility of life itself. What lessons would God teach us from such a appalling tragedy? I will confess, I don't know the full answer ... Life has always been uncertain; September 11 only made it clearer. Where will you turn for your security? Put your life in Christ's hands, for only He offers us "a kingdom which cannot be shaken" (Hebrews 12:28).

That was a crazy time. Our world has changed dramatically since then. I did not know God back then. I am glad to know Him now.
