Simple Truth
I shall ransom them from the power of Sheol; I shall redeem them from Death. O Death, where are your plagues? O Sheol, where is your sting? —Hosea 13:14a
Let’s face it -- we worry from time to time. Whether it is about our health, wealth, or relationships with our neighbors, we worry! One expert says that worrying causes “tension, poor sleep, irritability, fatigue, problems concentrating, and general unhappiness” (Seth Gillihan). Most people are afraid of dying. Today’s text reminds us that if God is our savior, then not even death will harm us. God is the only power that can save us.
The Well Church, remember that if God is your savior, you do not have to worry about anything. It is a simple truth worth repeating. If God is your savior, you do not have to worry about anything.
