One of the indicators that we are walking in humility is when we posture ourselves to learn something from people we don't like or from people we disagree with.
The Lord is our keeper.
The Lord is our healer.
The Lord is our shelter.
The Lord is our light.
The Lord is our salvation.
The Lord is our shepherd.
The Lord is our refuge.
The Lord is our peace.
The Lord is our rock.
Everything we will ever need Him to be, He has always been.
We don’t have to know all the details. We don’t have to know the whys and the hows. But we can trust Jesus will accomplish His purpose. Even if our circumstances aren’t good, His purpose always is.
Oh Lord, give us relief from our unbelief.
Fellow leaders, new to the scene or veteran, let us stay sober in this intoxicating world. Playing to the audience might pay off today but we are each one mistake, one misspoken word from being tomorrow’s dunce du jour. People are fickle. God is faithful. Love people. Trust God.
