    We don’t like to be told ‘no’. When we ask for something and the answer is ‘no’ we feel rejected and deprived. We walk away frustrated or sad. What about when God says 'no'? Let’s look at some examples where people had a proper response to being told no.

     | 379 views

    In 1659 Christmas was banned. More recently, genuine Christmas has been supplanted by a commercial Christmas with the Christmas tree as its center. Yet strange to tell, long ago, God picked out a Christmas tree for His Son.

    Go ahead and trust him with the needs of your life - I didn’t say wants, the things that we think we need - but what do we really need. God will provide the right thing, at just the right place, at just the right time.

    God will provide for all our needs. Sometimes we may question whether God truly cares for us, especially when we face difficult circumstances. But rest assured, God is our provider. He sees and cares for our needs. In Genesis 22, we read about Abraham being tested by God. He was asked to sacrifice ...read more
