Dear Friends,
I love being around mature Christians. You know the ones. They have been through many dangers, toils and snares. They have walked into and out of the firery furnace. They have trusted and obeyed. They are peace, wisdom and love. We have many such souls in our church. Many in our worship arts ministry. Get to know them. Learn from them. It’s the beauty of being in a church family. Peace! Scott

If You Learn To Trust Me-really trust Me-with your whole being, then nothing can separate you from My Peace. Everything you endure can be put to good use by allowing it to train you in trusting Me. This is how you foil the works of evil, growing in grace through the very adversity that was meant to harm you. Joseph was a prime example of this divine reversal, declaring to his brothers: “You meant evil against me, but God meant it for good.”
Do not fear what this day, or any day, may bring your way. Concentrate on trusting Me and on doing what needs to be done, Relax in My sovereignty, remembering that I go before you, as well as with you, into each day. Fear no evil, for I can bring good out of every situation you will ever encounter.
Genesis 50:20 (NASB) 20“As for you, you meant evil against me, but God meant it for good in order to bring about this present result, to preserve many people alive.
Psalm 23:4 4 Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me.
