Joshua 1-5

We sometimes wonder why we aren’t receiving God’s blessings, don’t we? God is a loving and giving Father, but He doesn’t control our actions. He has all the blessings extended to us with open hands, but He won’t make us take them. We have to reach out and grab them. It takes some amount of action on our part. In Pastor Mark’s message today, he’ll encourage you to reach out and grab the blessings God has for you. Jesus died and rose again to give you life, but that did you no good until you took a step of faith and accepted Jesus as your Savior. In the same way, God wants you to move in faith to receive the gifts He has for you.
