God's Economy and the US Ecomony

This morning I read about the following store closings in an article lamenting our lack of real economic growth.
  • Staples - 225 stores by 2015
  • Radio Shack - 1,100 stores
  • Albertsons  - 26 stores
  • Abercrombie & Fitch - undisclosed in 2015
  • Gilly Hicks - 20 stores
  • Barnes & Nobles - 218 stores
  • J.C. Penney - 33 stores
  • Toys R Us – 100 stores.
  • Sweetbay Supermarket – 17 stores
  • Loehmann’s  - shut down
  • Sears / Kmart - 500 stores
  • Quiznos - filed for bankruptcy
  • Sbarro – 155 locations
  • Ruby Tuesday - 30 restaurants
  • Red Lobster selling unknown number of stores
  • Ralph’s – 15 supermarkets
  • Safeway - closed 72 Dominick’s grocery stores

I was reminded:
  • God is not dependent upon the US economy.
  • God is not surprised by any of this.
  • God still meets our NEEDS just as he has always has.
  • There is not a sparrow that falls that God does not notice.
  • God still loves each of us more than we could imagine.
