choose to trust God


It is the end of the week.  But God has continued to be faithful, give guidance and strength as my family has looked toward Him.

One of the things that I like is to be in control.  The more I walk with God the less I realize that I am in control and the more OK I am with that.  That is because I have become more comfortable with God having everything in His hand.  That is faith in God.  That is trusting Him for His work and the outcomes.

Do you find it hard to trust God for the results?

Hebrews 10:23  NLT
Let us hold tightly without wavering to the hope we affirm, for God can be trusted to keep his promise.

God keeps His promises.  He does what He says He will do.

2 Corinthians 3:4  NLT
We are confident of all this because of our great trust in God through Christ.

We grow more confident in everything as we trust God.

John 14:1  NLT
Don’t let your hearts be troubled. Trust in God, and trust also in me.

Our hearts and our trust are tied to what we believe and how we lean on God.

Proverbs 11:28  NLT
Trust in your money and down you go! But the godly flourish like leaves in spring.

Trust in the wrong thing, any thing, and the more trouble you will have.

Psalm 31:14  NLT
But I am trusting you, O Lord, saying, “You are my God!”

Trusting God is always right!

Proverbs 3:5-6  NLT
Trust in the Lord with all your heart; do not depend on your own understanding.  Seek his will in all you do, and he will show you which path to take.

Have you heard of EDITH BURNS?

Edith Burns was a wonderful Christian who lived in San Antonio, Texas . She was the patient of a doctor by the name of Will Phillips. Dr. Phillips was a gentle doctor who saw patients as people. His favorite patient was Edith Burns.  One morning he went to his office with a heavy heart and it was because of Edith Burns.  When he walked into that waiting room, there sat Edith with her big black Bible in her lap earnestly talking to a young mother sitting beside her.  Edith Burns had a habit of introducing herself in this way: "Hello, my name is Edith Burns.  Do you believe in Easter?" Then she would explain the meaning of Easter, and many times people would be saved.  Dr. Phillips walked into that office and there he saw the head nurse, Beverly. Beverly had first met Edith when she was taking her blood pressure. Edith began by saying,"My name is Edith Burns. Do you believe in Easter?"  Beverly said, "Why yes I do."  Edith said, "Well, what do you

why is it Good Friday?

  Holy Week is the time we focus on God and His gift of salvation.  We come to Friday.  The day we remember the cross, Jesus’ death and all God has done for you and me   Why do they call this day “Good Friday” because it doesn’t seems good?   Jesus was treated as a criminal.  He was beaten so much that He could not recognize Him.  His pain would have been too much for you or me to endure.  That is especially from Scripture I’ve read or as in the movie the  Passion of the Christ .   Yet it is a good day.  It is Good Friday because God had our good in His heart.  What Jesus did that day changed our forever direction. Here are some thoughts that come to me:   He is Redemption and Redeemer   He too our Pain and Punishment   He is our Righteousness and Reality   He is the Savior and Life   All of those happened from the cross.  It was meant for the worst lawbreakers.  It was not meant for a Savior who never broke a law.  It was lifted high so that onlookers could see the price Jesus.   Look

Day 8 in Cuba

We have just come off and incredible weekend, and it is day 8 of the mission trip in Cuba.  Thank you to all who have been praying for this trip, the mission team and the impact it will have on those we serve.   Please don’t stop praying. Last week Alex and I served with a mission team in the mountains of southern Cuba.  There were several challenges, but God gave us safety, provision and opportunity to serve some of the sweetest people I have ever met.  No running water… sporadic electricity generated by a small, logo dammed up river, no transportation other than animals, limited food sources and more.  These people love the Lord and sharing their faith with others. Over the weekend we made our way back to Havana.  On Friday our vehicle broke down leaving us on the side of the road for several hours.  We then boarded a bus and rode 14 hours.  We arrived safely and even got some rest. Sunday was so, so good.  We visited two partner churches.  In the morning we were with one church that
