power under control (Meekness)

In this episode, I read a teaching by Pastor John MacArthur. one that has made a huge impact on me. The Lowly Walk. http://www.gty.org/library/sermons-library/1923 Some people will say to me, “You know, that’s really wonderful, and appreciate that message. It’s so ministered to me.” And as soon as they walk by, another person will come up and say, “Did you feel poorly today?” “You didn’t seem like you were yourself. It just – something was missing.” You know? You just really don’t know. And so, it kind of tends to cancel itself out. But it was interesting to me; the last couple of weeks I realized that I haven’t been going very fast. In fact, we’ve been in the first couple of verses here for weeks, and it’s amazing. But it’s interesting to see the response. Last week I intended to preach the message that I’ll go ahead and preach this morning, if I get done with this introduction. But I didn’t. I just digressed, and I just kind of shared my heart. And I’ve done that now three or four times since I was away in Brazil, and even before that, God was doing some things in my own heart. And it’s been interesting, because some people will write me. And I got a wonderful letter. I picked one up even in my little box this morning. It said, “Thank you so much for stopping in the midst of this to share the things that are on your heart and make it practical. God has really ministered to me.”
