Sunday Words of Encouragement July 8, 2012

We had a lovely service this morning and our Pastor gave a good sermon on The Number 2 --- as in two choices: The narrow gate or the broad way.

I could summarize the message but my heart is sorrowing and I am led to be still for a bit.
The song I am led to share for my soul today is
Be Still and Know by Steven Curtis Chapman

This video creator mentions reflecting on Psalm 46 -
I share these Verses for Today:
Psalm 46:1-3, and 10
God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.
Therefore will not we fear, though the earth be removed, and though the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea;
Though the waters thereof roar and be troubled, though the mountains shake with the swelling thereof. Selah.

 

10 Be still, and know that I am God: I will be exalted among the heathen, I will be exalted in the earth.

I am continuing to pray for strength and comfort for my family as we accept the passing of our Dad this week.  While he was still in ICU he told me that he saw the face of God - I replied that was a good face to see. A few days later he told my sister and stepmom that he saw angels in the mountains. My dad was not a  church goer but he always believed in God. On several occasions over the past few years we queried him to acknowledge that he believed in Jesus. We are comforted by the assurances that God is faithful to those who call upon His name.
