Sunday Words of Encouragement December 2, 2018

My husband had a rough night with pain and when it was time to go to church this morning, he was sound asleep. It was pouring rain and we didn’t get to church service.

Mid-day the sun came out and I took the chance to go to my office to empty the dehumidifier water trough. I realized the water was flowing towards the other offices where our file boxes were lined up. My staff wasn’t available to help move boxes so I called our Pastor to see if I could get help from the youth in the church. Within ten minutes he showed up and spent the next hour helping me move the boxes. Now that is God’s love in action! I thank God for a caring, shepherd pastor!

I am mindful that this is the first day of Advent – We begin the season by preparing our hearts for the coming of the Savior.

I chose this song: Even So Come

A Verse for today:
James 5:8 (ESV)
You also, be patient. Establish your hearts, for the coming of the Lord is at hand.

Lord, help me to focus on YOU this season; to stay calm knowing that You have all my issues under control. I love that I can trust You.
