THE MARVELOUS UNFOLDING OF GOD'S EPIC STORY, Pastor Dave Bretzlaff

Every part of our lives as His disciples is an extension of the life of the pre-existent Son. The Son calls us into His eternity, to live in harmonious union with Him, to participate in the redemption of creation, and to be a part of His glory. John Sartelle, God has dedicated Himself to us and to our stories.As the Author, God is in complete control of our lives. He knows the beginning and He knows how it’s going to end. He knows what needs to be placed in our lives to untangle that knot of sin inside of us, to make us more like His Son. God also knows what lies ahead of us. He will place trials in our lives to make us stronger and ready to face the next chapter. But through the whole story, the Author (our God) is with us. He isn’t just watching our story unfold, He is guiding it, moving it along. He is intimately a part of it.God is still writing your story. Don't let go of your faith because of what you have yet to see.
