Greeting Second Baptist Family,
Weekly Pastor’s Notes
Thought for the week:
There are no problems God cannot solve, no circumstances that escape His attention, no future that can’t be adapted to His plan. God is never surprised, never in need of being educated, and never in doubt. His way is perfect. In the difficult turns of your life, you may struggle, misunderstand, then blame God. Why? You don’t know the end of the story.
You think what you face is unfair and that God not only doesn’t make sense but is untrustworthy. What He knows – but you don’t see- is that there is an ending that proves His faithfulness. You just haven’t come to that part of the story yet. So, hold on, Trust God and watch Him do the incredible in your life.
(3 Minute Devotions – Barbour Books)
