The God of Preparation
Sunday, May 19, 2019
Our Scripture focus was on 1 Chronicles 22:11-19.
Our takeaways were to:
- Read Week 21 of Coast to Coast readings.
- CONNECT with the preparations God has made for me.
- DISCOVER how God has prepared me for His Glory.
- SERVE so that the Love God has prepared in me is experienced by others.
- Pray that I allow God to prepare me for Him.
