Would you still worship God if your child's life was on the line?

Talking Points:

  • Rex and Jessica’s daughter was severely injured in a car accident. There was much uncertainty about their daughter’s health during her harrowing recovery.
  • Though they prayed for deliverance, Rex and Jessica had to wait for their daughter’s recovery to begin. Trials like these teach us how small we are and how much we need God. Isaiah 41:10
  • You are not alone, if you are lonely
    When you feeling frail, you’re not the only
    We are all the same, in need of mercy, to be forgiven and be free
    It’s all you got to lean on but thank God it’s all you need
    And all the people said Amen
    And all the people said Amen
    Give thanks to the Lord for His love never ends
    And all the people said Amen
    -Matt Maher
