Sovereign God

We're going through Joshua right now... well, hitting some lessons in Joshua (it's sort of a big one...) and this morning was particularly interesting to me. We talked about obedience, using Joshua 6&7. Basically obedience being an act of worship and the fruit of worship and God being glorified through our obedience. I love the picture of those that are passionately following Christ to choose Him when they are hurting. "God is enough... You are the strength of my heart." This world fails us, but we are obedient to God and He is faithful. AWESOME, and I mean be in AWE of God.

The part that hit me was this, and it's paraphrased a little:
It may not be my plan, but it is God's plan. He is doing it by His pleasure to make His name great, not my own. This might not be how I would do it, but it's how God is doing it - for His glory.

Praise God for being faithful.

This was sort of stream of conscientiousness...Oh and, I know I told you a funny post was coming, AK... but... you're gonna have to deal a little longer, sweet thing. ;)
