This has been a tough week. It has been a week where there have been spiritual attacks from all fronts. And in these times, it is so easy to forget about who God is and the promises He makes to those who love and follow Him. It's easy to forget all the times He has proved Himself over and over again. It's easy to overlook the impact God has had through you. It is during these times we tend to experience Spiritual Amnesia.
The truth still remains that God is still the same God who did all those amazing things yesterday. He is still the same God who used Joseph's imprisonment for His glory. He is the same God who Moses even though He was over 80 years old. He is the same God who took Daniel and used him for the glory of God and His people in a foreign land. He is still the same God who used roughnecks like Peter and John and changed the world even tough they were arrested over and over. He is the same God who who took a man completely stuck in the tradition of his day and changed his name from Saul to Paul to create an innovative and impactful mission of spreading the Word to the nations. He is the same God who has used you and me to reach a world that is lost and dying in their sin. Let the complainers revel in their misery and disgust. Let us be about the mission God has in store for us. Do not be distracted by these petty issues that have no eternal significance and reach out to the hurting and lost among us.
