AWESOME GOD

Concerns for our government?

I had a wonderful day of ministry to James at the gas station in Glen Rock. He's confessed that he really cares about people and enjoys helping them but, religion had been shoved down his throat as a child. As a result, he was never interested in knowing about God. It was a such a blessing to share the Truth with him, to share testimonies of Christ with him, and encourage him. He made a decision to seek God and the Truth by reading the Bible and praying.

James' main concern is for our government. This Word should encourage us all:

Isa 9:6 For a Child is born to us, a Son is given to us. The government will rest on His shoulders. And He will be called: Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.
Isa 9:7 His government and its peace will never end. He will rule with fairness and justice from the throne of His ancestor David for all eternity. The passionate commitment of the LORD of Heaven's Armies will make this happen!

I also had visited York earlier to help a lady get food at the food pantry. It was a trying time for me-I got lost (don't know my way around York!) How embarrassing! and how blessed to be kept humble!

Act 5:41 The apostles left the high council rejoicing that God had counted them worthy to suffer disgrace for the name of Jesus.
Act 5:42 And every day, in the Temple and from house to house, they continued to teach and preach this message: "Jesus is the Messiah." (God with us!)
Amen.
