Hello, Our pastor mentioned a "test" for learning how "Important" we are, or how long we remain "powerful" to God's plan.. He challenged us to go home and fill a bucket with water.. "*Stick your arm up to your elbow in the water, Quickly pull your arm out of the bucket and count time it takes for the "gap" in water to remain there.<G> God has a "Master" plan, and God chooses whether to use people to fulfill that plan. BUT! he is able to carry out that plan with or without you or me... *Sometimes we think that we are the "Chosen" one and if we don't do it God can't fulfill his plan..<G> For example: Saul. Saul was so determined to destroy the church and stomp anyone that proclaimed Jesus as lord. He was so angry at the church he went to the high priests and asked for the letters and documents of the church's outside the border of Jerusalem. Well as the the story goes, as he was on his way to the next town a bolt of light whisked around him many times and a loud voice called to him,"Saul why do you persecute me?" and it was Jesus the guy that Saul hated the most. The story goes on that Saul accepts the Lord and crusades across the land proclaiming god as lord... Saul started to believe that he was the only person to carry out what God had for him and God sent him for three years into the desert just to show Saul that he had to surrender to God, that he wasn't really needed at all but was allowed to assist God in his work.. *Reflection- "We are a patrol for as long as we choose to participate, and God will use you for as long as you remain humble, willing, and surrendered to what God has "in store" for you." Thank you, Have a nice a day, Joshua Wheeler RR GMA 3911
