High Expectations!

Surprised by God?

We all like to have a bit of pomp, despite being New believers it is a natural aspect of our human nature and so it was with Naaman the Syrian general in seeking the Prophet Elisha for the healing of his leprosy?

But Elisha was not playing ball today and this upset Naaman to start fussing over which river was better than the Jordan!

But God was working through people once more, his servants rebuked him and told him to get on with it! This is the same with many of us, we are guided by God to do something and then all we end up doing is fussing over the small things!

2 Kings 5:11-14,    Luke 4:27,    Exodus 16:8,   Philippians 2:14.

Real Friendship?

Relationship with Jesus!

We may think that we have many friends or perhaps we know them as associates, but are they really our close mates or buddies or are they out to get something from us?

The old Hymn opens with these words, 'What a friend we have in Jesus!

This is true, He really is the best and only friend that we can really have, if we seek, confess our failure and turn from it into being born-again as a new creation?

Now we will have that friendship, knowing that Jesus will intercede on our behalf to the Father! He will hear our prayers and guide us through the daily reading of His words in the Holy Bible!

Matthew 7:7-8,    John 14:27,    Revelation 3:19-20.
