Loved by God.

* It's good to suffer loss, for it draws me to the Cross where God's loss is more than what anyone ever lost. * We cannot hear what the stories of the Bible are saying until we hear them as stories about ourselves. * Let go of control. * Trust God. Thank God. Think about God. Talk to God. Talk about God.

How to Experience the Power of God

The gospel is the power of God (Rom 1:16).

How does one experience this power of God in their life?

Consider these and add to them:

  1. The love of God must be real to you (1 Cor 13:13).
  2. The grace of Jesus is fresh and new in your soul (2 Tim 2:1).
  3. Your friendships and relationships are Trinitarian:  All of Paul's 13 letters are HOT (honest, humble, happy, open, transparent).
  4. Have a clear life goal and purpose (Phil 3:14). Know what God called and set you apart for (Rom 1:1).
  5. Do something beyond yourself. Paul was praying to go to Rome though he had no way to go there (Rom 1:10, 13).
