God's Grammer Rules

1. Never pose a menses where God puts a comma.

2. Never pose a comma where God puts a period.   
Joanna Weaver* 

I appreciate Joanna Weaver’s “Grammar Lesson.” It’s a lesson I demand to revisit from fourth dimension to time.

Sometimes God asks us to wait—He places a comma inward our lives. When that happens, nosotros demand to persevere, non operate away or larn ahead of God’s plans. (Isaiah 40:31)

At other times, God brings something to an end—He places a menses inward our lives. When this happens nosotros demand to deed forwards boldly together with confidently. (Philippians 3:12-14)

As nosotros abide past times God's grammer rules nosotros choke to a greater extent than aware of His purposes together with His dear written betwixt every trouble inward our life's story.

Are you lot struggling amongst your floor correct now? If so, inquire for God’s wisdom together with grace to facial expression or move.

Attitude Adjustment

Sometimes I come upwards to the Lord amongst wrong attitudes, doubts, fears, frustrations, confusion, discouragement, or selfish desires. 

I'm inwards necessitate of an "attitude adjustment" in addition to prayer is the best agency to become one.

The Psalms are amount of "attitude adjustments."

I challenge you lot to read through the Psalms this twelvemonth in addition to complaint how frequently the Psalmist comes to the Lord amount of doubts in addition to fears. Then, equally he writes most his concerns, the Psalmist begins "telling himself the truth" - reminding himself of God's faithfulness. 

God knows nosotros accept anxious thoughts in addition to he tells us inwards Philippians 4:6-7 to supercede them amongst prayers, petitions, in addition to thanksgiving.

"Do non survive anxious most anything, but inwards every situation, yesteryear prayer in addition to petition, amongst thanksgiving, introduce your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, volition guard your hearts in addition to your minds inwards Christ Jesus."

What a wonderful hope - a peaceful pump in addition to mind. I wishing that. How most you?
