John 15 Letting the Word Cleanse You

I listened to this on the 25th and was encouraged. Thanks for those ladies comments too. I think of Jonah and how he spent time in the ocean of people and was swallowed by the great fish. And said, I cried by reason of mine affliction vnto the Lord, and hee heard mee; out of the belly of hell cried I, and thou heardest my voyce. 3 For thou hadst cast mee into the deepe, in the middest of the Seas, and the floods compassed me about: all thy billowes & thy waues passed ouer me. 4 Then I said, I am cast out of thy sight; yet I will looke againe toward thy holy Temple. 5 The waters compassed mee about euen to the soule; the depth closed mee round about; the weedes were wrapt about my head. 6 I went downe to the bottomes of the mountaines: the earth with her barres was about me for euer: yet hast thou brought vp my life from corruption, O Lord my God. 7 When my soule fainted within mee, I remembred the Lord, and my prayer came in vnto thee, into thine holy Temple. 8 They that obserue lying vanities, forsake their owne mercy. 9 But I wil sacrifice vnto thee with the voice of thanksgiuing, I will pay that that I haue vowed: saluation is of the Lord. 10 ¶ And the Lord spake vnto the fish, and it vomited out Ionah vpon the drie land.

Hebrews 6:10-12 . . ." 10 For God is not vnrighteous, to forget your worke and labour of loue, which yee haue shewed toward his Name, in that yee haue ministred to the Saints, and doe minister. 11And wee desire, that euery one of you doe shewe the same diligence, to the full assurance of hope vnto the ende: 12That yee be not slothfull, but followers of them, who through faith and patience inherite the promises." We always have hope. When I have problems I try to remember what God told Paul . . . 2 Corinthians 12:9 "And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me."
