Check out this Good News Florida Magazine article on page 32, by Associate Dean Susie M. Cohen, Ph.D. "The Great Faithfulness of Our God" The article reflects on the faithfulness of God, emphasizing how God's steadfastness has been evident through personal experiences and biblical narratives.

Humility’s Perk Humility is the fear of the Lord. Its wages are riches, honor, and life. Proverbs 22:4 Today's Scripture and Insight: Proverbs 22:1–5 The benefit of collaboration is magnified when those we work with demonstrate humility. When colleagues are willing to admit their weaknesses, others feel safe to share their knowledge with one another, effectively helping everyone in the group. The Bible teaches the importance of humility—for much more than enhanced collaboration. “Fearing the Lord”—having a right understanding of who we are in comparison with the beauty, power, and majesty of God—results in “riches, honor, and life” (Proverbs 22:4). Humility leads us to live in community in a way that’s fruitful in God’s economy, not just the world’s, because we seek to benefit our fellow image-bearers. We don’t fear God as a way to gain “riches, honor, and life” for ourselves—that wouldn’t be true humility at all. Instead, we imitate Jesus, who “made himself nothing by taking the very nature of a servant” (Philippians 2:7), so we can become part of a body that humbly cooperates together to do His work, give Him honor, and take a message of life to the world around us.

This is why the fulfillment of God's promise depends entirely on trusting God and his way and then simply embracing him and what he does. Read more 👉 https://lttr.ai/AWLGj #GodSPromises #MakeGood #MoveForward

How many times does the Lord call us to “walk on water”? To walk out into the depths of the unknown and to do something that seems impossible? How many times do we hold back in fear, allowing what we can see—or what we can’t—to set the limit when God calls us higher?

🤔🤔 Daily Musings 🤭🤭 Yet it shall not be so among you, but whoever desires to become great among you shall be your servant. —Mark 10:43 If you desire to be used of God you should never get to the place where you are too big to do the small things or too small to do the big things. You must not entertain inferiority complex, neither should you be arrogant. We cannot get to the place that we are too big to do the small things if we want God to exalt us. But the Bible is very clear that those who want to be leaders must first be willing to be servants. Determine to keep a humble heart and think soberly about yourself; in time, God will exalt you. ⦁ Examine your heart. Do you tend to think more highly of yourself than you ought, or do you sell yourself short? ⦁ Seeing yourself as God sees you nothing more or nothing less is a great step toward maturity, and it will go a long way in making you a valuable servant. Think about it. #weareicgc #icgcedentemple #musings #raphaellangdon #TheBodyOfChrist #TheGospelOfChrist #YearOfGod #March2024 Credit: ICGC Worldwide (Edited)
