    This message from a series that looks at God's desire for us to live life in a way that avoids being overloaded and overextended.

    We see God reaching out to a foreigner and leading him to faith in Himself. This is the goodness and grace of God. It cannot be earned or be bought.

God remembers His own and cares for His own, but His own does not mean only the people of Israel. • It refers ultimately to everyone who is willing to acknowledge God, believe and worship Him, as the one and only true God. • So God’s ...read more
