Thank you for giving Phoenixmom's husband strength and hope. May they fight the great fight. Be at their side Lord Jesus and if it be Your Will heal him. Guide his doctors, give his nurses and care givers your Loving touch. We KNOW your are here Lord and you Love us. But we know our plans are not always your plans. Lead us Lord, stay with us, allow us to lean on you and each other. With Your Great Love we will help each other. Thank you Father for listening to me ramble. Amen

Something We All Need
by Pastor Kevin Sadler

"Strengthened with all might, according to His glorious power, unto all patience and longsuffering with joyfulness" (Col. 1:11).

Patience and longsuffering, this is something we all need in life. Difficult people and circumstances in our lives can make patience and longsuffering difficult to live out. However, we are promised God's help in this area. By the indwelling Holy Spirit we are "strengthened with all might, according to His glorious power" to be more patient and longsuffering. God's selfless love teaches us that "Charity suffereth long, and...is not easily provoked" (1 Cor. 13:4-5). Living out this attribute of Christ in our relationships can make a great difference in the quality of these relationships and, in turn, the quality of our lives.

Comment by Phoenixmom on February 19, 2019 at 2:26pm: Blondie Thank You, and I do need to let you know with so many sending Prayers he has been touched and he actually had a Great weekend. he was able to get out of bed, he did eat a little bit and he is regaining his strength. AMEN! it was very exciting to see. We went to Dr.'s yesterday and they remain positive at removing the cancer from his tongue. It's been an Ordeal but we remain hopeful in every way. Thank You!

Comment by Blondie on February 19, 2019 at 12:51pm: Do everything without complaining or arguing, so that you may become blameless and pure, children of God.
Philippians 2:14–15

Father, help me to be mature in my faith, aware of my feelings but not ruled by them.

Phoenixmom, this ones for you.

Let us hold unswervingly to the hope we profess, for he who promised is faithful. Hebrews 10:23

God’s promises are bedrock—unmovable, unshakable, eternal. Our hope has a foundation in the only One who has never broken a promise. He is always faithful.

Lord, it’s hard for us to trust sometimes, mainly because a lot of people have let us down. Remind us that we can always count on you. Thank you Father for your Faithfulness and Love. Amen
