Welcome to the Rapid Bull, daily edition, where we provide a quick biblical interpretations and applications. This is a ministry of striving for eternity.
Are you ready when calamity strikes? Most people are not. We recently had someone in our church who woke up one in the morning to find out that their house was on fire and they had to escape. Ended up in the hospital being checked out, but the reality is is that are we ready when tragedy strikes?
Now, I have a friend of mine several years ago who had a similar thing. The Sunday before Christmas, his house was on fire. He was up making breakfast, got up before the rest of the family to make breakfast for his family.
And in his case, he was ready even for tragedy. What do I mean by that? Well, even though he was standing outside, literally in his pajamas, watching his house burn as the fire department tries to put it out, he was very busy.
What was he busy doing? Well, there's camera crews there, there were people that just wanted to see what was happening, and he was about the business of sharing the gospel. In fact, the news reporter that took to the article had put in the article that this person, he's a friend of our ministry, Joe Conkle, had actually had such a spirit about him that he did not seem to be so worried about the fact that his house just burned down.
Why? Because he was ready for tragedy to look to see how God could use even a tragedy to advance the gospel, and Joe was ready for that. Are you ready when tragedy strikes? There are things we could do to prepare, and that's what we're going to talk about this week on The Wrap Report.
