As I celebrate my 56th birthday today. I wondered what I should say to God's people. Indeed, I am but only the vessel that this magnificent all powerful, all mighty God pours through.
I can tell you many many years of my life, I have walked through by faith and obedience. I didn't see "it" (whatever God had said) happening, but I sure believed God, lived with such expectancy every day and walked in obedience.
I can tell you God indeed stretched me for the last few years strengthening me in those areas that were considered to be places of weakness.
I have indeed proved that when God speaks to you he will encloak you under the shadow of his wings as he allows the fiery trials to purify us.
This last year has been exceptionally challenging but I now see the fruit in terms of many answered prayers
AND I have proved God as Miracle Worker and Way maker.
My faith was not required only, but purification of character and walking in an increased level of trust.
Truly defying all natural law I have learned that God will always keep his covenant, he will always be faithful and he WILL use every single experience, (even our failures) for HIS glory and our good... If we only let him do.
I thank God for growing this daughter as I believe I have now out grown the spiritual "teenage" years and have truly matured in Christ.
I am now walking in "adulthood"
Walking by faith and not by sight
Walking in the Spirit and not the flesh
Walking in sync with God's timing, not running ahead or lagging behind
Most of all
Walking Good in Christ
I pray the same for you
Walk Good in Christ
till we meet again
Pastor J
