I Am Who I Am
“Take courage,
it is I; do not be afraid.” Matthew
14:27
Waves slapping his waist and rain stinging his face,
Jesus speaks to [the disciples] at once. “Courage! I am! Don’t be afraid!”
Speaking from a burning bush to a knee-knocking Moses,
God announced, “I AM WHO I AM” (Exodus 3:14).
God gets into things! Red Seas, Judean wildernesses,
weddings, funerals, and Galilean tempests. Look and you’ll find what everyone
from Moses to Martha discovered. God is in the middle of our storms.
To Be With Me
“After I go and
prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me.” John 14:3
Note the promise of Jesus. “I will come back and take
you to be with me.” Jesus pledges to take us home. He does not delegate this
task. He may send missionaries to teach you, angels to protect you, teachers to
guide you, singers to inspire you, and physicians to heal you, but He sends no
one to take you. He reserves this job for Himself.
Quotes
Attitude
“What is the
difference between an obstacle and an opportunity? Our attitude toward it.
Every opportunity has a difficulty, and every difficulty has an opportunity.”
Your Grace
‘O the joy Your
grace gives me! I can never thank You or praise You enough for rerouting my
life so that it will end, and begin again, in You. Through Jesus I pray. Amen.
Mercy
“I have always
found that mercy bears richer fruits than strict justice.”
JESUS
. Our God is huge! He is mighty! He is everywhere and knows
everything!
. He is worthy of all our praises, honor and
worship.
Thoughts
Looking for Christ’s return makes a difference in your
life.
To feel good about yourself, do what pleases God.
A bite of sin leaves a bitter aftertaste.
The highest motive for serving God is the desire to
please Him.
A friend of God will be a stranger to the world.
To love God is to obey God.
