    Trust Above Your Circumstances

    Contributed by Mark Haines on Apr 22, 2011
    based on 5 ratings
     | 5,549 views

    Our faith tends to rise and fall based on our circumstances. The more pain we feel the more doubt we express. But Jesus, even as he died on the cross, rose about his feelings of abandonment and entrusted his spirit into the Father’s care.

    Jn. 19.28 "I Thirst" 1. [Play CD] Out of all of the statements we’ve heard so far, this is the most basic. "I am thirsty".
