God patiently delivers us in spite of our forgetfulness and our self-willed rebellion. In Psalm 106:34-39, we read how Israel constantly turned from their Provider and Protector. How after all of the great miracles they saw could they ever turn from God and worship other things. You know we also have experienced many of God’s great miracles but we still find ourselves letting the world’s gods like power, fame, fortune and pleasure excite us. When we forget about God, we can be overcome by an evil world. Always remember all that God has done for you so you won’t be drawn away or enticed from him by the world’s pleasures.
Christian love and sympathy is extended to the family of Jackie Nuby and Jim Sutton.
