Shakabuku — Not Finished but Better

So, the day after I wrote my previous post, of course, I went to church. And God spoke to me.

In the sermon Sunday morning, Dr. Brooks (our pastor, natch) said roughly, "In the darkness, we have to remember the promise spoken to us in the light". The darkness is not the definition of my life (or anyone's life), and even if it's extended over a lifetime, God can still work and bring many blessings.

The second thing was during Bible study. We were talking about God calling Abram out of Ur and calling him to a land he did not know, and giving him a promise that he wouldn't necessarily see in his lifetime. But Abram had to have faith that God would fulfill His promise.

So, I need to remember the promises of God, and have faith that He will work in my life to my benefit, but more importantly, to His glory.
