Something to Think About

When God takes something from your grasp, he's not punishing you, but merely opening your hands to receive something better.

The will of God will never take you where the Grace of God will not protect you.

Reflection for Today

Even though I walk in the dark valley I fear no evil; for you are at my side
With your rod and your staff  that give me courage.

The Power of God

Have full confidence that you have recourse to Him through his word which is the power of God.

All Things Work For Good

You have to remember that there will always be problems.  There will always be troubles we have to go through. But what can we do? We can have faith and keep a good attitude knowing that God in the person of Jesus Christ has overcome the sin of the world and its power to harm us.  And that with faith in Him we can endure the troubles of life because we know "All things work for good" and not for harm for those who trust and believe.

REMEMBER:  
Know that you are going to have trouble  - go through it, endure it.
But know He has said, "I am with you always, even until the end of the age"
Matthew 28:20

                                                 Today's Reflection on God's Word

God is faithful. This is what the Bible, His inspired word tells us. God has a purpose for each of us as individuals. He knows each of us as individuals. If we believe and have faith, we know this by grace. He wants to show us his kindness because we are His.

We are His workmanship. He created us for good works. He is the master craftsman of our lives. What does this say. Well for those who believe, one thing it says is that God, who is good will show His goodness through us. Many people do good things to show they are good. Many people are concerned about the image they convey to others. Most want to be seen as good and attempt to show a good image by trying to do good works.

However, sometimes our attempts fail. We have good intent but we cannot make it on our own. Even with our best intention we fall from grace. But we have to remember that it is not of our own good works in and of themselves but of the good work God does in us, if we open ourselves to Him. Believe and trust He will do His good work in and through us. It is His gift to us. Why not allow God to show off his good work today? He has done a wonderful thing in you His masterpiece. If your efforts to do good works sometimes fail do not give up, just keep believing God wants to do it,He can do it, He will do it.
