This week a verse from 2 Timothy came alive in my life. I know I am not alone when I say that I feel like I fail God countless times each week, if not day. God's grace came even more alive to me though as I read 2 Tim 2:13, which says;
"If we are faithless, He remains faithful; He cannot deny Himself."
Even though I failed Him repeatedly this week, He couldn't go against Himself and decided to use His Spirit within me regardless. He put three high schoolers and one teacher in my path that needed to hear the Truth of God's Word. He showed me that He is constantly at work around me, even when I decide to do my own thing and follow my own way. If I stop thinking about myself for just a while, and ask God to show me where He is working, He will do so. He desires that all have a relationship with Him and in 2 Corinthians He says that He is "entrusting to us the message of reconciliation", that we all CAN have a relationship with God through His Son Jesus.

Even though we are faithless at times and go our own way, don't forget His faithfulness. He still wants to use us to redeem those who have yet come to a relationship with God through Jesus.

One more God thing. This week God DID show His redemptive power by saving one of my best friends, Justin Wilkerson! Please rejoice with me that Jesus has saved yet another person from earthly and eternal hopelessness and despair. Love you brother, welcome to God's family.
