“God is sovereign, that is He is the boss. He is in control. He is the supreme ruler of heaven and earth for all of eternity. He is Lord. We don’t make Him Lord. He is Lord. And joy comes when we acknowledge that He is Lord; we rest in His Lordship. We trust His sovereignty, and we surrender to it. That means that God has the right to give, and God has the right to take away.” – Nancy DeMoss
O, that I could write with the language of angels..."Yes! O, yes! Hear this, for it is so true."
So true, so convicting. But He does not require me to speak as an angel, He calls me to give my all for His sake, right here, right now, where I am. Even though where I am, maybe especially because where I am, is grievously difficult. How light all our afflictions will be seen to be though, one day, and how heartbreaking now to think that in that day, I will weep for all I could have done but didn't. Forbid it, dearest Lord.
Let us pray for one another, for strength, endurance, yes, these things, but even more for the ceaseless flow of faith and hope and love. Blessed be the man who exhorts the children of God as this man has done.
Thank you, Michelle, for your faithful ministry. I thank God for your work, and pray His blessing upon you. He is faithful.

Verse of the Day
For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of an archangel, and with the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first. Then we who are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And thus we shall always be with the Lord. — 1 Thessalonians 4:16-17 (NKJV)
