Amos 7 - 9; Psalm 104; Titus 2

I am struggling w/alot this morning......if I really believed what I read would I, continue to struggle? I think so and ....

...so today just resting in the struggling...it's leading me to more and stronger beliefs....more and stronger feelings of being loved...more and stronger desires to love and forgive......

Titus 2: 11For the grace of God that brings salvation has appeared to all men. 12 It teaches us to say "No" to ungodliness and worldly passions, and to live self-controlled, upright and godly lives in this present age, 13 while we wait for the blessed hope—the glorious appearing of our great God and Savior, Jesus Christ, 14 who gave himself for us to redeem us from all wickedness and to purify for himself a people that are his very own, eager to do what is good.
15 These, then, are the things you should teach. Encourage and rebuke with all authority. Do not let anyone despise you.



I need GRACE... in receiving, actually receiving it..... I give it more freely..who knew this was how it worked and didn't tell me....;)
