In the Middle East, we're witnessing an historic peace deal. There's a brokered peace agreement between the Muslim terrorist group Hamas and the Jewish Nation of Israel. Is everything in the agreement going to continue down the road to actual peace? Only time will tell.

Are there ever times when perhaps we find ourselves upset over things that are not that important while missing the actual big things...? I've probably been guilty of that.

Over the past few weeks we've talked about how to Biblically respond to all of the national events and chaos happening all around us. It certainly appears that we, individually, have very little control over any of this. But we can control how we respond. We've talked about how our first response should be in prayer.
