Those who suffer according to God's will should commit themselves to their faithful Creator and continue to do good. — 1 Peter 4:19 |
If our kids always behave
and our boss is always pleased and our home is always orderly
and our bodies always feel good
and we are patient and kind and thoughtful and happy and loving,
others shrug because they're capable of being that way too.
On the other hand,
if we have a splitting headache,
the kids are screaming,
the phone is ringing,
the supper is burning,
yet we are still patient, kind, thoughtful, happy, and loving,
the world sits up and takes notice.
The world knows that kind of behavior is not natural. It's supernatural. And others see Jesus revealed in us. ~ Just Give Me Jesus * |

We may intellectually grasp the truth that God's power is adequate, but we can never know that by experience if we stay in our comfort zone. |

You Can Know God You will seek the Lord your God, and you will find Him if you seek Him with all your heart and with all your soul. — Deuteronomy 4:29 NKJV If Adam knew God as a beloved Father,
if Eve knew Him as the original Homemaker,
if Noah knew Him as the Refuge from the storm,
if Abraham knew Him as a Friend,
if Moses knew Him as the Redeemer,
if Rahab knew Him as the gracious Savior,
if David knew Him as his Shepherd,
if Elijah knew Him as the Almighty,
if Daniel knew Him as the Lion Tamer,
if Mary Magdalene knew Him as the Bondage Breaker, if Martha knew Him as the Promise Keeper,
if Lazarus knew Him as the Resurrection and the Life, if Bartimaeus knew Him as the Light of the World,
if John knew Him as the glorious King upon the throne,
surely you and I can know Him too! ~ Just Give Me Jesus * |

The Sufficiency of God's Power To Him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us,… be glory. — Ephesians 3:20–21 NKJV If you are questioning the sufficiency of God's power to resolve your problems and pressures, your suffering and stress, your crisis and change, His answer is the same. The infinite power of the living Logos of God is adequate for any need you or I will ever have. We may intellectually grasp the truth that God's power is adequate, but we can never know that by experience if we stay in our comfort zone. If all you ever attempt is what you know you can do yourself, if all your needs seem to be met through someone or something other than God, if you never have any difficulties that are greater than you can bear — how will you know the awesome greatness and personal availability of His infinite power? It's when the Red Sea is before you, the mountains are on one side of you, the desert is on the other side, and you feel the Egyptian army closing in from behind that you experience His power to open up an escape route. He has power to do the supernatural, the unthinkable, the impossible. ~ Just Give Me Jesus Excerpted with permission from The Joy of My Heart by Anne Graham Lotz, copyright Anne Graham Lotz. * * * |
