So Betty and I went to a new church today and enjoyed the worship services. The pastor
guy had a good sermon,and the music was good. We had actually listened to a few of the
pastor guys sermons previously and liked what he had to say and how he delivered it. It's funny sometimes how the method is as important as the message and how sometimes the message is
blurred by the messenger, you know what I mean? I mean sometimes two different pastor
guys, preaching the same sermon, could elicit very different responses; whattayagonnado?
Anyways, this guy said something so true I actually remembered......he said"we don't derive
our identity from things we have done or by things done to us in the past, but our identity is
derived from what Jesus has done for us and in us....and in this we find who we really are!"
Obviously, you haven't the context for that statement,but it rings true anyway, right'
It reminded me of the old hymn, Only Trust Him:
Come every soul by sin oppressed
There is mercy with the Lord
And He will surely give you rest
By trusting in His Word
Only trust Him, Only trust Him,Only trust Him now
He will save you, He will save you, He will save you now
