It's A Wonderful Life Part III | Pastors Mark & Cindy Stermer

If we hold onto our idea of what life should look like we won't be healed or thrive in the life that we actually live. ABOUT THE MESSAGEGod has ordered steps for us to walk in this wonderful life He has for us. Sometimes this involves God closing doors that we thought He would keep open for us. If we live in regret over these things it will lead us to second guess God's plan for our lives and cheapen his sovereignty. We must trust that God is directing our steps and ordering our lives even when it feels like He has us off of the path that we envisioned. If you accept the lot that God has for you and trust that his plan is the best option, this will lead to an absolutely wonderful life. ABOUT JESUSIf you want to learn more about who Jesus is and what it means to have a relationship with Him, we would love to help you on that journey:https://www.thechurch.fm/jesusFor a deeper dive into The Word of God on a daily basis check out our Free Ancient Paths Daily Devotional: https://www.thechurch.fm/ancient-paths WHO WE AREWe believe that the goal of every Christian is To Be Conformed Into the Image of Jesus Christ, and a relationship with Jesus as well as being involved in a healthy church community are both important to achieving that goal.
