What A Glorious Sunday

Have you ever prayed and prayed for an answer to prayer or prayers. Perhaps asking to be shown what to do? Maybe being brave enough to hand it all over to God saying, "I can't do this on my own." And...."If God knows who I am, how can he possibly love me?" Well kiddos, those are some things I've been struggling with and praying about for the past six months.

Then, this past Sunday miracles happened and prayers were answered! Our guest speaker, a Pastor, spoke from the Word straight to my heart. I had been thinking that Jesus loved me the way I love others. You know, the way you love your child. And yet, even though I knew I was saved, I still felt that somehow God was viewing me with a critical eye. You know, like the way you look at your kid that gives you trouble. Evidently Pastor had gone through the same thing. I thought to myself, "Imagine that, a Pastor feels the same way." Then he drew from the Word and put it all into perspective for me. I can't put God in a box. I can't put limitations on Him. Wow! Think about it. He created EVERYTHING! I mean EVERYTHING! He's HUGE! He's Sovereign! He's Awesome!

After that, our Sunday school class presented a video "How Great is Our God" by Louie Giglio. Hallelujah! Again, our God is soooooooooooooooooooo Awesome. More prayer was answered and affirmed! Please check out some of the video on line.

Just when I thought it couldn't get any better than this, I attended the Worship Team meeting where our Worship Leader presented a video about giving with love. We reviewed scriptures, and a quote from the presenter (sorry, can't remember his name) showed me things like, "Self-pity is the flip side of pride or entitlement." Wow! If that wasn't describing me, I don't know what was. I came away from church that day completely full, emotionally drained, but with such joy and understanding I couldn't contain it all.

I came right in and shared it all with hubby. After a very long and emotional conversation, hubby stated God is good and that our prayers had indeed been answered! Hallelujah and Amen!

Thank you Pastors and Leaders! Thank you Heavenly Father! Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!
