But God

3/22/2013

 
But God - a Christian devotional that'll help you grow in God.
The man opened our church service with a quick prayer followed by a touching testimony. 

Baring his heart, he shared how, when he was a young boy, his family moved from England to the city of Philadelphia.

He had it rough fitting in at his school, he said, where he was the white kid with the funny accent. 

But even though things were tough there, an abusive father who had a taste for alcohol made him even more afraid to go home.  

Unfortunately as the man grew, he followed in his father’s footsteps to the bars and nurtured a hardened heart. ...


Want to know how to grow in God? Find out more about Him in this Christian devotional.

I love that verse from 1 Corinthians! This devotional really touched my heart. I think the beauty in the but God moments is that without that precursor - we couldn't see the awesome glory of God at work. Thank you so much!

You're welcome, Susan. Thanks for reading. It is a good reminder that God works through the hard times. It's tough to remember this when we are going through them. But if we can, it makes things a whole lot easier!

Yes, I too love that verse in 1 Corinthians. I have been reading through 1 Corinthians the last week and when I read this particular verse I was reminded of my But God moment when I first came to know Him. Yes, He does use the least among us, doesn't He? But God.......He is the strength of my heart and my portion FOREVER!

I'm glad he works through even the least of us! Reminds us that we can all come to Him. I love it when you comment, Anna. Thanks!
