Good morning
Looking ahead to the week that lies before us, what do we see? For some just the thought of facing today, leave alone the week, is enough to make them reach for the nearest "pain killer" solution.
The problem with the pain killers the world offers is that
• they don't last
• they can become addictive
• they never solve the problem
It is not God's intent for us to face life’s difficulties alone. As followers of Christ we have the assurance that He is with us at all times. When we feel all alone and don't know which way to turn, God has a plan. "God sets the lonely in families, he leads out the prisoners with singing"
(Psalms 68:6)
The significance of being in a Life Group (Cell Group, Care Group) is that is where we receive love, care and support. When we feel down, it is there where we are helped up and encouraged. Most of all, our personal relationship with God is strengthened to the point where we can join with Don Moen and sing,
"You are my love and my light
You are my purpose for living
You are my hope in the night
My reason for singing
You bring the joy to my life
And You're making it better and better
And I will give thanks forever and ever"
In all circumstances hold fast to God.
Blessings.
Mike and Daphne
