The greatest things in life always come by way of a challenge. There is a trial by fire coming your way and when it comes instead of running away, step into the fire with confidence in your God knowing that He is in total control.
If life is difficult for you right now don’t let things on the outside get on the inside. God’s Word has promised you that there is nothing better than to be happy and do good. Find satisfaction in your toil for this is the gift of God.
If the Holy Spirit is speaking to you and God is calling you to come to Him, accept His Grace. Surrender your life to Him understanding that this might be your final opportunity for salvation.
Do you have joy? Did you have joy, but have lost it somewhere? Are you tired, run-down, and depressed? Jesus is your only source of joy. Seek Him and when you find Him you will find the joy you have been looking for.
In every REAL church, people are at odds. There is messiness, and messiness makes people uncomfortable. But in that messiness we are given the command to LOVE one another.
The story of Hosea paints a picture of God’s love for us. That even while we were sinning against Him, He still loved us enough to ‘buy us back’ and pay the full cost of the Covenant.
