La promesse de Dieu est comme une semence donnée à un fermier. Elle doit être plantée dans une bonne terre, et bien entretenue. Courageusement et patiemment, très dévoué, ce fermier attendra avec vigilance, observant sa récolte jour après jour sans se distraire, jusqu'à ce que vienne la moisson.Nous ne croyons pas en Dieu pour la simple raison que tout a l'air bien, mais parce que nous devons mettre toute notre confiance en l'Éternel, quelles que soient les circonstances. Cependant, ce que certains ont oublié, c'est que si la présence de l'Éternel n'est pas avec Son peuple, l'Arche de l'Alliance parmi eux n'est rien de plus qu'une pièce d'Équipement.Marcher dans l'obéissance à l'Éternel est une opportunité pour ceux qui lui sont dévoués, afin de se positionner pour la victoire. Attendre le Seigneur, espérer en l'Éternel, c'est connaître le Dieu qui nous donne la compréhension de nous mettre en position pour recevoir l'accomplissement de Ses promesses.

"Why don't these bums just get a job?!" For a long time, that was my sentiment about people I saw begging on the street for money. Without compassion, I was convinced that if I did give them money, they would just use it for booze or drugs. So instead I just shook my head in disgust and walked on by.After many years of this unkind, uncaring attitude, I found myself working in a large inner-city church and having to meet with people on the streets every day as they dropped by to have their various needs met. Eventually I found that by getting to know them and their often tragic stories-many of which are included in this memoir-they ministered to me as much as I ministered to them, changing my heart.
