DENNIS

Good morning everyone. I am Dennis Gossett with Central United Methodist Church. How is your faith this morning? Is it strong, shaky, or non-existent? Perhaps today we all can be encourage as we are reminded that God really does exist and he is continuing to heal, teach, and guide. All he wants us to do is make time and a place to be with him, so that he can have our undivided attention.

Jesus teaches that we should “go into our private room and with the door shut, pray to our Father.” Making special time and space for God to give us hope when the world tells us there is none. The world tells us that we are doomed by terror. But in our time with God, we become aware of his power, grace, mercy, and love.

Life without this kind of time can easily become destructive. It becomes possessive and defensive; it looks on with contempt to our fellow human beings. It keeps everyone at a distance. You see, God’s voice can break down all of those things that keeps us up at night and gives us ulcers.

So, how is your faith in God? I pray that it will grow stronger daily and you will draw closer to God who loves you. Have a blessed day.
