Today, Pastor Ford will have some practical advice for those of us who find ourselves in jobs we don’t like. One way to find a better perspective is to consider the fact that God has placed each of us where He wants us to be. And if we see our job, not as a job, but as a mission and ministry that God has appointed us to, then we will...

Today, Pastor Ford will share with us some things to consider when we’re going through trouble at work.  As believers and followers of Christ, what should we be saying when we encounter trials of any kind?—"This is only a test!”  It’s a test to see whether or not we really believe and trust God.

We can’t see God with our eyes. And signs of how He is working in the world and in our lives are not always visible to us. But the Scriptures assure us that no matter what we perceive He is always working. And for that we can be grateful and can express our gratitude to Him in prayer. ...

When will followers of Christ be encouraged to serve in their local congregations? When they begin to understand that God has led them to the place where they worship, not just to get food from His Word. God led them there to work. And as Pastor Ford will remind us today, that’s all because we are God’s workmanship, created in...

When we become involved in ministry at our local church, we need to remember Who we’re working for. That it’s God Who has called us to this work and ultimate we’ll be accountable to Him. God has gifted each of us in special ways and has given us the things that He wants us to do.

Pastor Ford will remind us that God works His sovereign will in spite of us.  He uses us, even though we may not realize that we’re being used by Him.  He is still working out His plan for the best possible outcome in our lives.  And although we may not see it or understand what He’s doing, we can still be grateful...

Do you only see the trials and the tragedies around you, or do you also see the Lord? Do you see the providential hand of God working in your life? If not, then you’ll want to listen as Pastor Ford reminds us today of how we can trust God when we feel like our back is up against the wall.

Even though it often seems that the benefits we’re expecting are delayed, grace is always working on our behalf to give us what we do not deserve. And God is either getting us ready for what He has for us or He’s getting ready for us the things He has in store for us.

Many of us may be going through a tremendous struggle right now, but as we begin to look at how there is purpose in our problems and pain, Pastor Ford will encourage us to not waste our sorrows. Instead, we should embrace them, realizing that God is up to something and is working in our lives.

As we wrap up this study from Genesis 2 and take a concluding look at “the perfect guy,” we can thank God for His grace and His power, as He continues the job of shaping us and molding us into His image. As long as we don’t become too stubborn, by not allowing Him to work in our lives, the Lord is continually making us into...
