Does God care for me as an
individual? This was a question that has been going through Pastor
John's head for the last six months as he and Aina have gone through
a terrible time of testing. Having walked with the Lord for more
than 45 years, he shares how doubt still came into his mind over the
pain and suffering they were experiencing and this led him to
contemplate how much God is involved in day-to-day life on earth.
After repeatedly calling out to God in desperate prayer, the Holy
Spirit showed him how God is not an abstract God who put together a
creation and walked off the stage, but invested Himself in it
because He knew that He had to be part of it in order to produce
beings that would come to Him of their own free will. God is deeply
involved in His creation to the point that He punished Himself in
order to justify the men and women who would receive His free gift
of salvation. Jesus was sent to convey God's compassion that none
should perish but that all should come to repentance. So if you're
experiencing a time of testing, remember that God is nudging you to
dig deeper into His marvelous grace. This message will help you
understand how much God loves you and what it cost Him to get you
saved. |
