As we continue our message series, Bust a Move, on today's Treasured Truth, Pastor Ford will remind us that we need to realize our current condition is not where our story concludes.

When we serve God through ministry—whether vocationally or voluntarily—there are many challenges we can face.  But when we realize that serving God is a privilege, then that realization brings everything together and helps us face those challenges effectively. Considering how God chooses to use people like us to grow His kingdom, despite our shortcomings, is a humbling insight and makes us understand even more so, what an awesome God He is!

On today's Treasured Truth, Pastor Ford will ask us to consider this question—Why is it that when someone does something against us, we look at their actions, but when we do something against them, we look at our intentions? And we say we didn’t intend to do it.  Yet, we did it.  So, whether we intended to or not, we hurt them and we have to deal with that, seek their forgiveness, and try to reconcile things with them.

On today'sTreasured Truth, Pastor Ford will remind us that we should not let ourselves be impeded in our healing from past hurts because we want to know why someone would hurt us in the way they did. We often ask why did they do it? We have to realize that we may never find out why they did what they did. And often people who do things to us don’t even know why they did them. So, we shouldn’t let this question hold us back from getting past the hurt. Find our more about how to forgive the unforgivable when you join us for today's Treasured Truth.

When we’ve been hurt and we realize what our offenders meant for evil, God actually meant for good, then we understand the purpose of our pain. We can see that those who do evil towards us don’t control our lives by anything that they can do to us. Instead, God controls the outcome and intends for us to go through certain things so we can become more like He wants us to be.
