Rags to riches

at 02/22/10 9:28PM

My lesson for today came from Genesis 40-41. These are my 2 favorite quotes that rocked my world today:

"It is beyond my power to do this, but God will tell you what it means and set you at ease."

"God has made me fruitful in this land of my suffering."

This story never really impacted me like it does today.

Me too - thanks for sharing!

Good stuff. Fruitful in our suffering... many of us avoid the pain and in that we don't produce the fruit that God desires.
Its like that radio show I listened to on teaching your children to suffer well. Difficult stuff, but many times we start question God
when the riches of our desires aren't granted. God sees beyond physical blessings and wants us to be molded into his spiritual image.
Usually we have to go through traisl to get there.

Hi Sharon, I was at the retreat last year for the first time so you really didn't get to know me that well. We spoke a couple times and I also got the chance to speak with Dee Vess also. Does she go to your church?? I am hoping she will be there again this year. I have her email address, so I will have to ask her, lol, :) Anyway, your mom seem so nice, I'd like to keep chatting with her. I would sooo love to visit some of the churches in the 'south'. Where is your congregation? can you give me the website? :) I look forward to talking wiht you more at the retreat this year! thanks for your words on the Holy Spirit. I am longing to get more perspective. I know that he interceeds for our prayers but have come across so many verses that makes me think he does more in our hearts and minds. Anything you and your husband can offer on this topic, would be greatly appreciated! :)

sorry i didn't say hey sunday. I would have if it werent for my half a brain missing. forgive a half-brained man who lost his mind (well, half of it anyway). Perhaps an empty headed man would leave blood all over you, would you really want to hug that? Dude, that's gross. I needs a shower.

by capt_crunch at 02/15/10 8:59AM
Hope you are feeling somewhat better today. I feel bad when you don't feel well. Thinking about you while I am away from home today. Can I bring you anything when I come home. Call me. Love you.
