"Thus they hid (Joash) from Athaliah, so that he was not put to death. And he remained with (his nurse) six years, hidden in the house of the LORD, while Athaliah reigned over the land." ~ 2 Kings 11:2b-3
God's sovereign control will never be thwarted, and His plan cannot be stopped.
His timing is perfect, and His purpose is gloriously redemptive.
He works in all circumstances to the praise of His glory and the outpouring of His Spirit.
He can be trusted in all that He has promised, and He can be depended upon when everything seems hopeless.
Have you drawn close to Jesus Christ by faith as God's ultimate grace gift?
Have you discovered daily the power of the Holy Spirit guiding and guarding in your life?
Have you trained your own heart to delight in the promises of God as seen in the pages of His word - the Bible - as you have spent regular time reading, listening to, and praying through these timeless truths?
In all these ways, and countless more, the goodness of God's grace and the majesty of His mercy is working out His sovereign plan with eternal love and holiness to reach down through the ages...
...to you and to us and to others.
Amazed by His grace and reveling in His love,
~ Pastor Sean and Tess
PS - One way that God reveals His grace gifts is through the local church family. We celebrated much of this dynamic at our Church Meeting and Meal this past Sunday. Come join the CBC family again on Saturday as we gather to enjoy the "Pie Party" (see details below). This is a terrific opportunity for you to invite an extended family member or friend to join you.
