GOOD MORNING, VILLAGERS AND WORLD...
COCK-A-DOODLE-DOO...
This rooster must not have checked the weather report this morning... Because while the rest of us were listening to the rain hit the roof... he was already outside sounding off like the neighborhood supervisor... Rain... clouds... wind... none of it mattered... He clocked in early and started his morning announcements anyway...
As I listened to him this morning... I thought about how life sometimes brings storms we never asked for... Yet God has a way of using the very thing that was meant to break us to build us...
What was meant to break you... God can transform...
What was meant to discourage you... God can strengthen...
What was meant to stop you... God can redirect...
Sometimes the storm is not punishment... Sometimes it is preparation...
Sometimes the detour is not denial... It is divine direction...
Today we cover the land with peace... protection... and favor...
We cover our children as they travel... learn... work... grow... and pursue their purpose...
We cover the sick... the shut-ins... the elderly... the grieving... and every person carrying a burden that feels heavier than words...
May healing find them...
May comfort surround them...
May strength uphold them...
May God's peace rest over every home represented here today...
No matter what the forecast says... Remember that God is still working behind the scenes...
The storm is temporary...
The lesson is valuable...
The testimony is coming...
Walk in faith...
Walk in purpose...
Walk in gratitude...
And never forget...
EXPRESS... HEAL... TRANSFORM...
