Alright so I just started this book called Crazy Love by Francis Chan, and it is a phenomenal book. I started reading it and could not put it down. I finished a few chapters and mediated on them all night. My son woke me up several times and I was still just pondering what the author had to say. God's love for us is huge, and why wouldn't we want to live for him because he did the unthinkable he died on the cross for our sins. My son crawled into bed with me last night and placed his head right on my pillow curled up and fell asleep. It was on of the quickest times he has ever fallen asleep. This thought popped in my head this is what God wants out of us. When we get scared, are hurt, worried, in pain or just need to feel God's love we have to go up and crawl right next to God and let him take away all of the things going on in our life.
Psalms 91:1-2 Says He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty. I will say of the Lord, "He is my refuge and my fortress, my God, in whom I trust.
Don't reject the love of God. Don't be afraid to crawl up in the Lords arms you will find rest and you will be protected.
Hey everyone or to who will read this blog. My name is Greg Ferguson and I am a Children's Pastor. Okay now I feel like I am in some kind of recovery group or something. I am amazed everyday of the Grace of God. We see all of the junk on the television, same sex marriages, and just downright sin. I serve a God who loves everyone and cares for everyone if he was not a gracious God I think that he would have wiped us all of the face of the earth by now. I made the comment today at dinner to my wife "I am so glad that I am a follower of Jesus Christ". When things are going great I give him the glory, when things get tough I know that he will get me through it. I know that my Jesus loves me and hurts when I hurt and laughs when I laugh. I am pumped that I serve a God who is the same yesterday, today and will be the same forever.
