Sunday Words of Encouragement August 26, 2012

Sometimes God speaks through His presence with few words! This morning we had a lovely communion service. A word of the Lord was shared declaring that He had all things - future, past and present - in His control.
Pastor ended up summarizing his sermon and I only had one paragraph of notes!

Whatever trail or tribulation you are facing, God is in control. He is with you in it and through it.  Physical, mental, spiritual, our financial. He can and will handle it if you allow him control. Have you released your concerns to Him? As Paul says: 'His grace is sufficient...His Power is effective through my weakness' (see the verse below).  God's Power rests on you; He has tented His presence over you. Satan, take notice: these are God's  protected children.

This is a new worship song we have been singing.
It touches my spirit.

A Verse for Today

2 Corinthians 12:9 (NIV)

⁹ But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness. ” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may rest on me. 

May I always acknowledge that I am weak (after all, I am nothing without the Creator's touch) and any strength I have is from God.  May I give thanks and praise Him for His mercies and blessings.
