"Sword of the Covenant"
Mark Andrews

| | | | | | Let My Heart Say, "Amen." Lillian Rhoades
That's why I take pleasure in my weakness… (2 Cor. 12:10 NLT).
Let the church say, "Amen," is the first stanza of a chorus written by the late Andrae Crouch. The song ends with: God has spoken, so let the church say, "Amen." For several weeks I sang the words, while trying to convince myself that what God had spoken to me time and time again was not negotiable. Sometimes I would say, "Okay, God, I'll accept this, even though I would have preferred that." But my verbal acceptance of God's will did not always echo my heart. Deep inside there was a stubborn place where resistance lived. For many years, it fed my doubts and fears. I refused to accept God's final answer to my long-standing struggle with self-image, often interpreted by some as the Apostle Paul's thorn in the flesh.
Like Paul, I finally came to my "nevertheless" moment. It's a moment that every believer must experience at some point in their walk with God, no matter what that thorn might be. It's a moment when we say, I will accept God's answer of sufficient grace and really mean it. It's a time when we go from wanting our way to accepting His will; we go from wishful thinking to steadfast trusting. And the more we trust, the less we resist God's grace. The point of least resistance to whatever God has assigned to us in life is the place where grace and peace reside. It's a place where our mind and heart can learn to say, "I will boast in my weakness, so that the power of Christ can work through me. So be it. Amen!"

As we help you become the writer God has called you to be, you help us spread the gospel in over 230 countries online. Here is a quote from a reader who accepted Jesus on FaithWriters. His life will never be the same because one writer “put pen to paper” and shared it.
‘I literally was transformed and totally healed in an instant upon trusting in Jesus as my lord and savior. The love, joy, light, and peace I feel is way more than words or thoughts can express. This new life of being a true Christian, who is saved, Spirit-filled, born-again, fully and truly converted by the living holy gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ, is going to carry my being further than anyone could ever imagine. It will be the most blessed, rewarding, and holy life in the Lord, which I have embarked upon now.’” Roger P. |
