He Makes A Way
0Life has really been bad lately and this morning things escalated with my son – his car broke down on the highway last night and he just told me about it this morning. We got into a bad argument. This is really sad since our relationship has been one of the bright spots in my life – until this morning we have been getting along great.
After a short time of thinking about how God has taught me so many domestic problems either occur or are augmented by our pride I turned to Him in prayer and it was amazing. Moments later things were better and both my son and I calmed down. I took him to his car and surprisingly it started. I followed him back to our home.
After all my sin and disobedience God is still merciful and makes a way when there seems to be no way. He is amazing!

How We Force God To Lower Our Protection

Once again, I finished re-reading the book of Job and I am reminded of how pride lowers our protection against satan’s attacks. I know what you are thinking – that Job was upright and did not sin against God. But Job was not perfect in God’s eyes. Look at the way God spoke to him at the end of [...]
