Not What I Thought I wanted | Scotty Gibbons - Audio

2 Corinthians 12:8 - 8 Three different times I begged the Lord to take it away. (NLT) <br><br> 2 Corinthians 12:9 - 9 Each time he said, “My grace is all you need. My power works best in weakness.”  (NLT) <br><br> 2 Corinthians 12:9-10 - So now I am glad to boast about my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ can work through me. 10 That’s why I take pleasure in my weaknesses, and in the insults, hardships, persecutions, and troubles that I suffer for Christ. For when I am weak, then I am strong. (NLT) <br><br> 1. Trust Him <br><br> Prov. 3:5-6 - Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; 6 in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight. (NIV) <br><br> 2 Corinthians 5:6-8 - 6 So we are always of good courage. We know that while we are at home in the body we are away from the Lord, 7 for we walk by faith, not by sight. 8 Yes, we are of good courage, and we would rather be away from the body and at home with the Lord. (ESV) <br><br> Romans 10:17 - Faith comes from hearing the message, and the message is heard through the word about Christ. (NIV) <br><br> 2. Don’t miss all of the little miracles while waiting on your big one. <br><br> 3. Keep praying and praising while He’s working. <br><br> Romans 8:28 - 28 And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who[i] have been called according to his purpose. (NIV)
