Scary work in our life

Today after our 8:30 AM worship service a gentleman approached me to say thanks for the message and that He knew God was working in his life. I remember him telling me that he felt that for some uncanny reason that God had him here today for a reason and that He was working many things in his life together for the good. This man told me that it was kind of scary how God had him here for this particular message today considering all that was going on in his life. He had been struggling at work with a difficult relationship and was changing jobs and he related that it was a difficult transition. It was evident to him that with today's sermon and the real life issues that were going on that God was working a plan. I kept hearing him say how scary it was that God was bringing everything together the way he did for him. Amazing!

I have always believed that we are all here for a reason and a purpose. That God is working a plan in our life. None of us are perfect, none of us have arrived yet there are times where we can tangibly sense God's immediate presence and work in us. Those moments are a little scary to really stand face to face with an all powerful God who is making a personal touch in our life. Those are moments we never forget and quickly become the foundation for a growing faith...a faith that believes that we are not accidents, that we don't go through life by chance, but that there is a greater power out there looking out for our best interests. When we lean into this and live for Him there is no telling what miracles God might work in our life. When was the last time God's work was so evident in your life that it was scary to you how purposefully He connected the events, circumstances, and words of life? Keep your eyes open because our God is alive, He is risen from the dead, and He is by no mistake at work in this world. I pray that you have a scary experience this week with our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Blessings, Your Dreaming Pastor
