We Live in a Precarious Life

We know what it is like to have a cat think we have bent over just for them to sit on us.  

This is may be what has happened with this photographer - he has a great photo to take and then his cat takes advantage of his owner for a nice sit down.

In this life what can we do when life is tough?  

Where can we go when life is precarious?

PRECARIOUS:

adjective

-Dangerously lacking in security or stability.

-Subject to chance or unknown conditions.

-Based on uncertain, unwarranted, or unproved premises.

A Precarious Life in the Scriptures:

2 Corinthians 4:16-18

..."Therefore we do not lose heart, 

but though our outer man is decaying, 

yet our inner man is being renewed day by day.

For momentary, light affliction is producing 

for us an eternal weight of glory far beyond 

all comparison, while we look not at the things 

which are seen, but at the things which are not seen; 

for the things which are seen are temporal, 

but the things which are not seen are eternal."

Romans 5:-1-11

"Therefore, having been justified by faith, 

we have peace with God through 

our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom also 

we have obtained our introduction by faith 

into this grace in which we stand; 

and we exult in hope of the glory of God.

And not only this, but we also exult in our 

tribulations, knowing that tribulation brings 

about perseverance; and perseverance, 

proven character; and proven character, 

hope; and hope does not disappoint, 

because the love of God has been poured out 

within our hearts through the Holy Spirit 

who was given to us.

For while we were still helpless, at the right 

time Christ died for the ungodly.

For one will hardly die for a righteous man; 

though perhaps for the good man someone 

would dare even to die.

But God demonstrates His own love toward us, 

in that while we were yet sinners, 

Christ died for us.

Much more then, having now been justified 

by His blood, we shall be saved from the wrath 

of God through Him.

For if while we were enemies we were reconciled 

to God through the death of His Son, much more, 

having been reconciled, we shall be saved 

by His life.

And not only this, but we also exult in God through 

our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have 

now received the reconciliation...."

Romans 12:9-13

"...Let love be without hypocrisy. 

Abhor what is evil; cling to what is good.

Be devoted to one another in brotherly love; 

give preference to one another in honor;

not lagging behind in diligence, fervent in spirit, 

serving the Lord; rejoicing in hope, persevering 

in tribulation, devoted to prayer, contributing to 

the needs of the saints, practicing hospitality."...
