    My Struggles Are All About God Series

    Contributed by David Owens on Jan 31, 2022
     | 3,467 views

    Do our struggles and suffering have a reason or a purpose? God can use our struggles and suffering to bring Him glory. But we must make our struggles all about God, and not about us.

    A. As I meditated on suffering and struggles this week, these ideas came forth in my mind: Suffering is paradoxical. Suffering is bad and good. Suffering is painful and helpful. Suffering is confusing and enlightening. Suffering isolates and builds community. Suffering may lead to death or ...read more

    Before getting into the sermon series, let me ask this question. Do you believe God's still working in your life? if yes, Were you able to understand his work?

    According to 2 Corinthians 4:4, spiritual blindness and misunderstanding are still prevalent in the lives of many believers. This is a big hurdle in experiencing God and his blessings in one's life. Clearly, this blindness and misunderstanding is the work of the Father of Lies, Satan. And ...read more

    In the year 2002, the Catholic church has come under fire by the news media because of the corruption in the Catholic priesthood.

    The meaning of life is to enjoy the freedom and the simplicity of life given to us by God's grace through the realization of God’s absolute control to the point we trust in the Lord’s love.

    Remember always the beauty with which our souls came into this world – the gifts, the talents, and strengths -- are to accomplish the will of God for our lives in this world.

    In today's Gospel reading, Jesus speaks powerful words about our soul, raising the question of what is there if we gain the whole world at the cost of losing it. To ponder the soul that God has given us, I'd like to share two stories with you. The first story is from my days of teaching ...read more

    I think, as followers of Jesus, just like the first disciple, we find ourselves wondering why God would leave us all alone … abandoned. But we are never really along … God has surrounded us with His family, the church and given us a great promised gift.

    ~ Intro: What do you do when you feel abandoned and alone. When I was 6 or 7 I was fishing with my father up in the mountains. It was beautiful, good fishing but dangerous because the country where we lives was in the middle of a revolutionary war and the area we were in was known to have rebels ...read more
