Faith Stretching/Strengthening
Continuing to obey in the area of my stretching…
This Psalm shows so clearly how powerful and mighty our God is. Look at all He is with just the sound of His voice. I am glad I know and serve a Sovereign God who is above all and over all!
So good to take the time to look at God and focus on who He is knowing He is in control of all things and yet He considers us precious. He alone is our strength and our joy!
I never knew how to listen for God’s voice until I joined PCC as a bible based church! I am so happy to know now how to listen to his majestic voice!!! Great lesson today!
I am so grateful for today’s lesson! I know it’s not Thankful Thursday yet, but… As Wendy confided, I too wondered why God “spoke” to some people but not to me. Now I get it!
I feel so much better knowing that God has been speaking to me too.
Truth is God is my compass through all the events in my life!
Love the truths under His voice is majestic! His voice is way more powerful than any of the storms of this life.
How comforting to know TheLord is still on His throne! To know he sees the storm as well as the calm that follows. My hope is in the Lord. My joy is in the Lord! Good lesson today
I like the word PEACE. I think how my life has its ups and downs in the past when I wasn’t faithful in my walk with God and how much PEACE he has provided me as he speaks in his majestic voice.
Yes, I love the idea of peace as well. We talked in our Revelation study tonight how we can have peace in the midst of the circumstances of life. No matter what is going on we know our soul belongs to the Lord.
