THE JOURNEY CONTINUES: NOV. 10, 2024

Well, the journey of late is coming to an end. Today is our last day of vacation and tomorrow we fly back home. Yesterday afternoon we went to see The Miracle of Christmas at the Sight and Sound Theater. What a magnificent work it is! One sure can’t sit through it without sensing the supernatural presence of Jesus and The Holy Spirit for they are truly glorified in this production. If I were my grandma Wreting I would have been running the aisles waving my hankie praising Jesus just as she use to do in the power of the Holy Spirit!

During the night last night I received a troubling text from one of the guys I see. His marriage is hugely at risk with the roots of it in his ballpark. At this point in time he has seen his part and desperately wants to correct it but the damage he’s done isn’t easily forgiven by man. As I had my devotions this morning and asking Jesus what He wanted me to know from Him for today, He told me to send this man the words of the hymn–It Is Well. These words are the ones He asked me to share: “My sin oh the bliss of this glorious thought, my sin not in part but the whole are nailed to the Cross and I bear them no more! Praise the Lord! Praise the Lord, oh my soul!”

God knows our heart and when we confess He forgives. Man on the other hand doesn’t always follow this same path for the hurts our sins left are not so easily forgotten and trust has been demolished by these sins. Knowing to praise the Lord for what He has done for me is critical and important. Then, trusting the Lord to bring others to see and believe our change is not just a temporary show, is in God’s Hands alone. This is extremely hard to do for we want to quicken God’s pace so “we can feel better”. God is still and always be AMAZING! I put my trust in Him for this man and his family.
