Trust

Marilyn Appleby

Today we look at a character in the Bible from 2 Kings. His name was Naaman, and he was stricken with a terrible disease— leprosy.

Like many of us, Naaman hesitated in trusting that someone could heal him, but fortunately, eventually, he did trust. His healing didn’t happen in the quite the way he expected or the way he would have liked, but he was healed, and came to acknowledge that God is all powerful and can achieve far more than we can possibly imagine.

To what extent do we trust God for our needs? When was the last time you asked someone to pray for you, for healing or any other situation, for yourself or for a loved one? Are we sometimes embarrassed to ask others to pray for us? After the 10.30am service there are always members of our Prayer Ministry Team available to pray with you. They will listen to your prayer request, pray with you, and anything you share is held in complete confidence.

All glory to God, who is able, through his mighty power at work
within us, to accomplish infinitely more than we might ask or think.
Ephesians 3:20
