TESTIMONIES BEING WRITTEN
Today's reading: Exodus 9-12

"Then the Lord said to Moses, Return to Pharoah and again make your demands. I have made him and his officials stubborn so I can continue to display my power by performing miracles and signs among them. You will be able to tell wonderful stories to your children and grandchildren about the marvelous things I am doing among the Egyptians to prove that I am Lord." Exodus 10:1-2 NLT

I'm well aware of how disgusted, exhausted and frustrated you are on the mission field God's placed you.

I know how discouraging it is to ask and invite only to be ignored, lied to and given a list of excuses as long as your arm.

I know how much you want to 'shake some godly sense' in to some of your loved ones for choosing to live the way they are.

But have you ever looked at these frustrations and discouragements through the words of Exodus 10:1-2?

Ever considered their refusals to be testimony material?

Ever paused to ponder the fact that what they choose has no factor in what you are supposed to do for God?

Ever thought about the fact that your persistence and commitment are the miraculous powers of God being displayed to that person?

Ever look at their situations and not shaken your head but lifted your hands in praise for the 'place where grace is soon to be so amazing'?
