Glimpses of Truth

When . . .

God is good. God is great and I thank Him when . . . . . . . . I’m busy, like you are. Things to do and places to go fill our lives. Every day seems to be packed with lots of stuff. It’s great to get up on the right side of the bed and have everything that day go as smooth as silk. But how about those other days when . . . . There are the days when it rains and you don’t need rain. That is, you don’t think you do. God is good. God is great and I thank Him when…. It makes me feel like I need help. Who, me? I’m not a chain. I’m only a link. How about you? And just how important is one link in a chain? I’ll let you answer that. In God’s family, especially in God’s family . . . . where working together is a necessity for survival, much less success, God made us, gifted us, and has given us options to be a link to help someone along the way. You are valuable to the survival and success of so many around you, even me. Especially when…. Romans 12:10-13 NLT – “10 Love each other with genuine affection, and take delight in honoring each other. 11 Never be lazy, but work hard and serve the Lord enthusiastically. 12 Rejoice in our confident hope. Be patient in trouble, and keep on praying. 13 When God’s people are in need, be Why? Because when . . . . I do wish for you a day filled with peace. His peace. With all that’s in us, may we realize our worth in the Kingdom. Why? Because He has made us worthy, even when we don’t feel like it or deserve it. Enjoy this little modern-day application of the Romans 12 passage: How Important Are You? More than you think. A rooster minus a hen equals no baby chicks. Kellogg minus a farmer equals no corn flakes. If the nail factory closes, what good is the hammer factory? Paderewski’s genius wouldn’t have amounted to much if the piano tuner hadn’t shown up. A cracker maker will do better if there’s a cheese maker. The most skillful surgeon needs the ambulance driver who delivers the patient. Just as Rodgers needed Hammerstein, you need someone and someone needs you. So link up. You are valuable. Especially when . . . .
