There’s talk of food shortages in our current world. Remember God has his ways, none of which we really understand. Who knows if the prophet Habakkuk was only talking about his times, or times to come. The remedy is clear. Rejoice in the Lord, take joy in the God of your salvation. God is in charge, but we have to do our part too.

 Habakkuk 3:17-19 

Though the fig tree should not blossom, 

    nor fruit be on the vines, 

the produce of the olive fail

    and the fields yield no food, 

the flock be cut off from the fold

   and there be no herd in the stalls, 

yet I will rejoice in the Lord;

   I will take joy in the God of my salvation. 

God, the Lord, is my strength;

   he makes my feet like the deer's;

   he makes me tread on my high places. 

To the choirmaster: with stringed instruments.

Habakkuk 3:17-19 - ESV
