Lectionary for 8/31/08

Today's readings are 1 Kings 16.29-17.24 ( http://www.gnpcb.org/esv/search/?q=1+Kings+16.29-17.24 ), 2 Corinthians 9.1-15 ( http://www.gnpcb.org/esv/search/?q=2+Cor.+9.1-15 ), and 2 Corinthians 10.1-13.13 ( http://www.gnpcb.org/esv/search/?q=2+Cor.+10.1-13.13 ).
 
See how the Lord provides for the needs of his people?  Look at God's miraculous supply for the physical needs of the widow in 1 Kings, for the Corinthians in 2 Corinthians 10.  See how he has blessed you.  Indeed we have a Lord who is full of blessing and grace.  Despite our sin and doubt, we see our Lord always provides for the needs of his people.
 
Do you doubt the Lord's provision?  Even in times of persecution and suffering, the Lord ultimately protects his people.  They are secure as they trust in Him.  Nobody can pry us out of God's hand if we trust him.  Nothing can separate me from God's love in Christ.
 
Thank the Lord together with me.  Our God watches over his people!
