Radars Up – Another God-incidence

January 5, 2017/CathyChung/

Topics to Dig Into

Who is He?

What is God like? Who is this man Jesus? How can we understand the Holy Spirit?

The Visible God

God is present and active in our lives, often working through people and ‘coincidences’. Thank and praise Him!

Making it Practical

Following Jesus in today’s world can be challenging. But living according to Jesus’ teaching is incredibly worthwhile. Call it life-changing.

He Knows You

God’s love is unconditional. He knows our hearts and continually invites us into relationship.

Ah-Ha!

Learning about the culture and language of Bible times can reveal new meaning in familiar scriptures. Let’s call them ah-ha moments.

Commit everything you do to the Lord; trust Him, and He will help you.
Psalm 37:5 (NLT)

If you’re a regular reader you know I don’t believe in coincidences. I like to call them God-incidences because I believe it’s one of the way God guides us. When something seems like a coincidence my radar goes up to see what God is trying to tell me.

As such, I’m sending you over to a blog post by Dr. James Merritt at Proverbs 31 Ministries. Why? Because five days ago I chose the verse above as my first memory verse for 2017. Today Dr. Merritt’s article about this verse arrived in my inbox.

Not only does his post use my memory verse, it also expresses my heart for God’s Word as unrestricted access to Him. Dr. Merritt also lists the perks of spending time with God.

I will have to check out that post, Cathy! I missed it. And I love the fact that you're doing scripture memory. I've gotten away from it and want to start again.
