Thought for this week

Pastor Gary · 04-29-2008, 10:22 AM

Good Day, Friends; Every once in awhile we may be confronted with a temptation. When that happens, our study of God's Word reminds us to look to Him for guidance and to ask for His help, in prayer, to deliver us from that temptation. In Psalm 37:23-24 (NLT) we are told, "23 The steps of the godly are directed by the Lord. He delights in every detail of their lives. 24 Though they stumble, they will not fall, for the Lord holds them by the hand."
We have truly wonderful gifts from God. The power of reason and the power to choose. When tempted, we should all remember that God is with us and wants us to do the right thing. If we are in His Word, we will make the right, godly choice. God Bless you.
