I recently received my latest CD sermon from John MacArthur
at Grace to you. I was planning on listening to it on a drive for a Fourth of
July trip. As that plan was canceled, I
decided that today would be a good opportunity to listen to it while driving to
Beaumont. What an awesome message titled “The Invincible Christian.” A study
out of Romans 8 that if God be for us, who can be against us?
I met Ms. Ramirez for a roof leak claim. She mentioned a few times during my inspection
some of the things that she has had to deal with this year. Later, after a few probing questions, she
really opened the emotional reservoir that she had dammed up inside of her. She
was struggling with the loss of her mother and her husband’s sudden liver illness.
She began speaking about her faithful
God. How he was supporting her. Then she quoted Romans 8:28 “all things work
together for good for those who love God, to those that are called according to
his purpose.”
I then realized that the CD sermon was for Ms. Ramirez also.
I told her about the message out of Romans 8 and how God had me bring it this
very day so it would be a word of encouragement to her. I shared the CD, a
daily Bible and a study Bible with her so that she may be encouraged, spend
daily time in the word and search the scripture’s meaning.
The hope she displayed in Christ was inspiring to me. Please
pray for healing for her husband.
