The Sovereign God

"Are not two sparrows sold for an assarion? And not one of them will fall to the ground apart from your Father.”
(Mat 10:29)

My faith in a sovereign being who rules and reigns over the whole earth and everything in it was strengthened these last couple days.

Our church welcomed six new believers as they professed their faith in Jesus Christ before the church. After the service the entire church retired to a park and had baptisms in the river.

The next day one of the women, who I hadn't met before Sunday, was sitting on a picnic table in front of her apartment when she was hit in the head by a random, stray bullet. She went home to be with her savior.

Our God reigns. He is sovereign even over you and I, and He has no need whatsoever...even for my consent in anything. He knows the end of each thing even from the beginning of time. Calling Him my master isn't an assertion, a profession or a expression of faith...it is simply a confession that all men should make.
