by pastor jim byrne ringwood christian church seeking a term to describe our present time kenneth galbraith labelled it the age of uncertainty un- certaint is certainly an outstanding charac teristic of our day political uncertainty has recently become very real to us the crises in go vernmentand the threat of separation testify to this fact the buildup of nuclear weapons and the exposure of intelligence scandals only heighten our uncertainty financial un- certainty is also very real to us according to he november 1976 readers digest the average canadian family of four owns at least 4000 excluding the money borrowed to purchase a house add to this our high inflation rate our high unemployment and our frightening national debt as well as our dollar fluctuations and it all adds up to a very un certain outlook for the future marriage breakup and commonlaw liaisons lead to uncertainty m our personal relationships confusion in our sex and marriage roles leads to further uncertainty many of us lack a sense of personal fulfillment and meaning in our lives charitable donations stouffville charitable donations totalling 600 to 10 organizations caused lengthy debate at the last meeting of town council before they were ap proved councillor bill mc- nalley felt that donations to such organizations should be left to the in dividual donor and that governing bodies such as town or regional councils should not contribute to these groups mr mcnalleys opposition did not stem from his own lack of support or from the feeling that the organizations involved did not do worthwhile work he said but from a feeling that the donations from political bodies were both redundant and presumptuous how can my life have purpose and meaning we ask what is life all about anyway we are also uncertain about what constitutes right and wrong people ask how can i know what is right or wrong right seems to be what most people consider to be right at any particular time we are bombarded with so many ideas that we do not know what to believe we are uncertain about what is really true to crown all of this is the very uncertainty of life itself the fact that we may die or be killed at any moment and that we will certainly die some day the result of this uncertainty is a paralyzing fear which most of us are afraid to admit or face god has provided the answers to many of these problems in the bible we can be certain about god god created the world and he maintains it and cares for each individual in it he knows our names and he is concerned about the smallest details in our lives he cares so much that he sent his son to take the punish ment that we deserve god is good and cares for us and our world we can be certain about man we can know who man is and what his purpose is here on earth god made man and placed him on earth to enjoy life god gave man guidelines for his life if we follow these guidelines then we will have a fulfilled and meaningful life rejection of these guidelines have resulted in dissatisfaction and uncertainty guidelines are provided to make our personal relationships full and meaningful god planned that one man and one woman would live together in a lifelong commitment to each other ahdto goargod intended that they should be spiritually mentally and physically one within this stable bond children are to be born and nurtured the cure for un
