tool belt

The other night when I was driving around feeling sorry for myself and trying to drown out God's voice I turned on our church's radio station.  A sermon from Malcolm Wild was running through the air waves.  


You can not run a ministry alone.


As part of the armor God is asking me to put on, I reach for the BELT OF TRUTH.


I will hear his voice in a song, sermon, scripture, blog post...  "Put this tool in your belt.  You will need it later."  So I ask you to remember this post in the future when I write about the dark nights and deep valleys ahead of us.  He is giving me the tools ahead of time for the battle so I can reach down when I need them.  Tools that will speak His truth when the fog of the storm is too thick to hear it clearly.


So gently.  All of you.  Please.  When that moment comes, tell me to...


LIFT MY EYES UP.


We can't do this ministry alone.

Most definitely.

The LORD upholds all who are falling
and raises up all who are bowed down.
The eyes of all look to you,
and you give them their food in due season.
You open your hand;
you satisfy the desire of every living thing.
The LORD is righteous in all his ways
and kind in all his works.
The LORD is near to all who call on him,
to all who call on him in truth.
He fulfills the desire of those who fear him;
he also hears their cry and saves them.
(Psalm 145:14-19 ESV)
