“And so, dear brothers and sisters, I plead with you to give your bodies to God because of all he has done for you. Let them be a living and holy sacrifice—the kind he will find acceptable. This is truly the way to worship him. Don’t copy the behavior and customs of this world, but let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think. Then you will learn to know God’s will for you, which is good and pleasing and perfect.”
Romans 12:1-2 NLT

Praise God!
We got some news yesterday that was a little bit of a shock to us. It’s a set back, but all I can say is PRAISE GOD!
It is easy to praise God when life goes your way. But today it’s not going my way. In my selfishness I often need to be reminded it’s not my timing, it’s the Lords! How could I ever doubt the perfect timing of the Lord? If there is one thing I have learned in my 58 years of life it’s that God’s plan is perfect.
So, trust him! Dedicate every particle of your being to him! Be patient! Everything is for his glory, not our own! We are being changed, transformed, into a new person. This happens through fire and rain. It comes through triumph and defeat. I can see the changes in me and I welcome them. The Lord is faithful and we just to need to lean on him.
His will is perfect, his plan is pleasing. It all works for his glory!
