God Is Offering Himself To
Us Daily, And The Rate Of
Exchange Is Fixed:
Our Sins For His Forgiveness,
Our Hurt For His Balm Of Healing,
Our Sorrow For His Joy.
- Barbara Johnson
Suffering Is Seldom An Item On Our
List Of Requests To The Lord.
But When It Crosses Our Past And
We Are Able By His Grace To Keep
On Walking, Our Lives Become Messages
Of Hope To The World And To The Church.
- Sheila Walsh
Just As Potters Kneads Clay
To Remove Impurities And Air
Bubbles, God Removes Impurities
To Make People Useful For His
Service.
Just As Potter Turns The Wheel
And Shapes The Clay Into A Useful
Vessel, So God Uses The Turning Of
Events To Shape His People.
In Light Of The New Covenant God Has
Established With Us Through Jesus Christ,
We Can Trust The Master Potter To Work
Out Our Imperfections And Gently Mold Us
Into The Likeness Of His Son { Ro 8:29}
What A Liberating Concept:
That Our Hate – Our Anger – Need To Be
Prayed.
Burying It Will Not Make It Go Away.
Suppressing It Contaminates Our Souls.
If We Fall To Take It To God, It Will Leak
Out And Destroy The World.
-Sheila Walsh
Give Him Your Pain.
Give Him The Guilt You Feel, The Heartaches
That Come To Us All.
They is Part Of Living, But If You Focus On
Jesus Christ, He Alone Can Ease Your Heartache.
Then He Uses Us To Dry The Tears Of Others.
- Barbara Johnson
