Came across this today and I thought it was amazing and I wanted to share it with ya'll!

Acting Out the Purposes of God by John Fischer
Chances are you’re not going to have an armed murder suspect who has just allegedly killed four people force you into your house and tie you up today at gun-point, but a 26-year-old single mom had that happen to her, and she behaved in a manner that could only be described as empowered by the Spirit of God. She calmly talked her captor into untying her so she could fix him breakfast and read to him from the Bible and from The Purpose Driven Life.

“You got out of that courthouse with police everywhere, and you don’t think that’s a miracle?” she told him. “You don’t think you’re supposed to be sitting right here in front of me… Your miracle could be that you need to be caught for this. If you go to prison, then you need to share the word of God with all the prisoners there.”

Would you have thought of that? Would you have thought that being tied up at gun-point by a convicted rapist and murderer was a part of God’s purpose for you and for him? I can’t say I would have reacted like that. But then again, if we are living a purpose-driven life, wouldn’t that be true of everything that happens to us? This woman chose to believe it, and what a time she picked to act!

There is a good chance you are going through something right now that seems a long way from the purposes of God. Well look at this situation and reconsider. Here’s a woman who assumed it was no accident that this happened to her. She could have freaked out or she could have assumed God was in it and treated it as destiny. This woman didn’t just believe; she acted on her belief.

I think we can all take some courage from this today. I know I have issues in my life that I have come to think of as somehow exempt from the purposes of God. Perhaps there’s another way to look at it. Ask yourself if there might be a purpose God has in what you are going through; and then ask God to show you what it is. His purposes begin to show up as we believe increasingly that we have an accident-free God and act accordingly. This single mom seemed to gain courage as she went along. That’s the courage that comes from finding out, as you go, that God is empowering you to fit into His plan for the universe -- for you and for those around you.

From the highest of heights to the depths of the sea
Creation's revealing Your majesty
From the
colors of fall to the fragrance of spring
Every creature unique in the song that it sings
All exclaiming

Indescribable, uncontainable,
You placed the
stars in the sky and You know them by name.
You are amazing God
All powerful, untameable,
Awestruck we fall to our knees as we humbly proclaim
You are amazing God

Who has told every
lightning bolt where it should go
Or seen heavenly storehouses laden with
snow
Who imagined the sun and gives source to its light
Yet conceals it to bring us the coolness of night
None can fathom

Indescribable, uncontainable,
You placed the stars in the sky
and You know them by name
You are amazing God

All powerful, untameable,
Awestruck we fall to our knees as we humbly
proclaim
You are amazing God
You are amazing God
Indescribable, uncontainable,
You placed the stars in the sky and You know them by name.
You are amazing God

All powerful, untameable,
Awestruck we fall to our knees as we humbly proclaim
You are amazing God
Indescribable, uncontainable,
You placed the stars in the sky and You know them by name.
You are amazing God
Incomparable, unchangeable
You see the depths of my heart and You love me the same
You are amazing God
You are amazing God
