10/30          Isaiah 45:9

9 “What sorrow awaits those who argue with their Creator.

Does the clay dispute with the one who shapes it, saying,
    ‘Stop, you’re doing it wrong!’
Does the pot exclaim,
    ‘How clumsy can you be?’

WHAT?

Would you argue with God?

Would you question your maker?

Do you really think that the Lord God Almighty needs your input?

Serve the Lord with gladness.

Praise His Holy name.

Be Jesus to a watching world.

To You is all the glory unto eternity.

Praise God, He is Lord all by Himself.

Tell your story. 

Love others. 

Give the best of yourself.
