AMEN!

This is what we had our sermon on this weekend and last - "Living in the promise". After God has given your a promise, it often looks 180 degrees contrary that before the promise comes to fruition.

Thank you for the reminders!

In Christ,

Quite right. And it's important to remember that obedience is not so God will love us. We obey because we love God.
