00:00:08,600 --> 00:00:15,280
I spoke to you before out of Acts 14 16 about people always looking for their own way and kind of writing God out of

4
00:00:15,280 --> 00:00:16,580
the story in

5
00:00:16,580 --> 00:00:21,440
1417 Luke records these words and yet he did not leave himself without witness. That's God

6
00:00:21,440 --> 00:00:27,760
He did not leave himself without witness in that he did good and gave you rains from heaven and fruitful seasons

7
00:00:27,760 --> 00:00:30,000
Satisfying your hearts with food and gladness

8
00:00:30,680 --> 00:00:34,620
See, this is just how good God is God is loving and kind

9
00:00:35,080 --> 00:00:40,840
Problem is that people observe life and they think well because I am blessed because I have good things

10
00:00:40,840 --> 00:00:46,900
I can go on and do the bad things that are in my heart to do and that's just not the way it works when you take

11
00:00:46,900 --> 00:00:53,960
Every observable fact of creation you see that God has been blessing people despite their bad behavior

12
00:00:53,960 --> 00:01:01,160
So if God has been blessing you despite your bad behavior stop repent and be grateful to God for the blessings that he's given you

13
00:01:01,560 --> 00:01:03,560
facing adversity and difficulty

14
00:01:03,560 --> 00:01:10,900
Realize that the God who sends the basic blessings to you on a regular basis also has the power to change the circumstances of your life

15
00:01:11,080 --> 00:01:17,880
Submit to his plan for your life observe that God blessed you he blessed you and he wants to bless you even more

16
00:01:17,880 --> 00:01:22,160
so much so that he sent his own son Jesus Christ to die on the cross to pay for sins and

17
00:01:22,160 --> 00:01:28,560
Provide an eternity for those who will believe in him and live for him aren't you grateful for your blessings be encouraged today
