Sermon Notes For the Morning Service

Proverbs 3: 5-6

Trust in the Lord with all your heart,

and do not rely on your own insight.

⁶ In all your ways acknowledge him,

and he will make straight your paths.

Let's ask these Questions today:

·         What does it mean to acknowledge God? 

·         Can you  acknowledge  that which you don't know?

·         That implies we should know God and be in a good relationship with him...right?

  Connecting the Dots:

In applying the truth of this passage:

 

What does the promise that He will make your paths straight mean to us today?

In Our Daily Lives let us to commit to being open to God's presence in all things.

Let us resolve to:

·         Observe God

·         Accept that he has a plan for us

·         Realize that we do choose to Walk with Him our Go our Own Way.

Prayer:
May whatever Grace you need to be in relationship with him be yours, and.....May we all be led to  the  firm conviction found here:

Romans 8:38-39

³⁸ For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, ³⁹ neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
