It was 1970 when the Temptations recorded a hit single titled, “Ball of Confusion (That’s What the World is Today).” Remember it? If you’ve never heard one of the greatest songs/groups to come out of Motown, or if you’ve forgotten it, follow this link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gy_aahkIdEI . It is one of those songs that seem much too prophetic. A favorite of mine, it reminds me of our world…not just my world, though some morning it would be an accurate depiction…but of our world lately: deadly hurricanes, banks failing, gas prices on the rise, war, falling stock markets, presidential candidate rhetoric, and OJ is on trial again! If I didn’t know better, I would say we have been here before. What I do know is that God still sits on the throne. Regardless of what is playing out on the world stage, or in the Quick household for that matter we can confidently shout with the multitudes of heaven; "To him who sits on the throne and to the Lamb, be praise and honor and glory and power, for ever and ever!" In fact, in this time of financial uncertainty, you can bank on it!
