Victory in God's Grace and Perfection

Just to share a vid with u all...
http://www.hourofpower.org/video/nick.php


A couple of points that stood out for me:
- Don't let ur circumstances steal your JOY (Philippians 4:4)
- The goodness of God is in His faithfulness. He doesn't allow things to happen without a reason. (Jeremiah 29:11)
- Just coz u can't see the purpose yet doesn't mean it's not coming. Just like how u wait for a train coz the schedule says it will come... u wait for the good and purpose coz u know it says so in the bible. (Romans 8:28)
- Trusting is a decision you have to make... n that's where the victory lies.
