Get Back Up!

Devotional cartoon based on a sermon of 2 Corinthians 4:6-18

This notes for this sermon were based on 2 Corinthians 4:6-18.

Let’s face it! We can do everything we believe is right and just, and still life is not going to go our way. This is an imperfect world. In fact, like the Apostle Paul, we may face opposition because we ARE doing the right thing. We may get knocked down, taunted and feel pressure from all sides.

Life isn’t going to be easy. We may feel that way when we center on ourselves, but God has a bigger picture. We can praise Him because his plan extends far beyond our sight. It will all come together in the end, but don’t expect smooth sailing in the meantime.

“We fix our eyes not on what is seen, but what is unseen, since what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal.” 2 Corinthians 4:18

Thank you to Jim Lyon of Madison Park Church of God for this sermon.

Needs Shout-out

Cartoon of a surprised boy and a celebrating girl. The girl says, “All my needs for today have been met. Let’s give God a shout-out.”

This cartoon is based on Philippians 4:19.

Have you ever stopped to realize how many of our needs have been met? It gets so easy to think about all the things we don’t have and want. There is no doubt people are struggling to make ends meet. There are big needs in this world.

At the same time, many of us DO have all our needs met by God. We have a tendency to forget that and to focus on our next obsession. When that happens, take some time to realize how God has taken care of you. Then you can focus on how can use you to supply the needs of others worse off.

Let’s give a shout-out to the Lord today!
