Something to Consider

Crew, I went to monday night life group last night where we were studying Ecclesiastes and was really touched by these verses. Hope you will be too!

"Sorrow is better than laughter for by a sad countenance the heart is made better." Eccl 7:3

"Consider the work of God for who can make straight what he has made crooked? In the day of prosperity be joyful, but in the day of adversity consider: Surely God has appointed the one as well as the other so that man can find out nothing that will come after him." Ecc. 7:13-14

Soul note from my Bible:
"Some things cannmot be fixed this side of heaven. Solomon observed that there are times when the crooked cannot be made straight: some peopole stricken with cancer will die; some disabilities will never be healed. Solomon advisses people to expect bvothe good and bad in life- to enjoy the days of prosperity and be prepared for the days of adversity. No one goes through life without facing difficulties and problems. God never allows our journey here on earth to become so easy that we lose sight of heaven, where God promises to wipe every tear from our eyes!"

That was really powerful to me and I'm so excited for the day. Keep your eyes on him and he will take care of youi!

Max spoke on hope wed. night and we sang "Great is Thy Faithfulness." It really touched me also because when he was talking about how we loose hope on things I was thinking about my sezures and not being able to drive which tends to discourege me at times, but when we sang " great is thy faithfullness" it said "morning by morning new mercies I see. All I have needed thy hand has provided." It really made me think about how I don't need a car and every time I have a sezure he is always right there with me providing me comfort. I really feel like God is speaking to me in so many ways right now. It is very exciting!
In Christ,
Abby
