Mike, I am curious, did you lose your job for refusing the Covid shot?

Yes, good to read this. “Let go and let God”…

I am not in charge.

When people start talking about politics or “medicines” I just say nothing and let them hear themselves talk.

Maybe that’s not the most heroic response but I have found it’s better than arguing .

When we step into the flow of God’s River and let Him carry us wherever He knows is best, it can certainly feel uncomfortable at times. Yet, without doubt, this is how He gets the glory due unto His Name.

Thank you. Have a Blessed and enjoyable Thanksgiving. I try not to have a plan because they don’t usually go the way I planned them, I believe God is directing my plan and I trust him. Thank you.

Even the ones who claim there is no God are part of His plan. Whether they know it or not. We are all fulfilling our purpose in His plan.

If everyone knew this there would be a great deal more peace in our hearts and minds.

Thank you for this article. Thank you, Jesus.

Hello. Yes, I think that’s very true. He created all humans in His image and all are called but unfortunately not all heed that call. Still He’s sovereign over the whole creation which includes every human and all are used and involved in His plan. God bless you.

I once heard a joke:

"How do you make God laugh?"

Answer:

"Tell Him your plans!"

Six months ago we moved off grid with minimum power systems but a budget that we thought would allow us to add to and upgrade our power system. Instead, everything except our power bank broke down and needed replacing. Cars broke down: an alternator here, a throw out bearing there, and we've made no progress in our plans. However, we continue to walk by faith and not by sight. We aren't starving, freezing, walking, or without what we need. We're just not where we had hoped we would be. Nevertheless, we are blessed and have more than we need. We have a loving church family and six dogs to entertain us. We have one another. My 94 year year old mom is still alive. We have Jesus and we are very blessed. We don't have time or a desire to worry about much beyond our immediate life. God is in charge and I trust his plan. Happy Thanksgiving!
