Terry's Zoom Meeting 19th May 2022.

Hebrews 4:12 .....12.For the word of God is alive and powerful. It is sharper than the sharpest two-edged sword, cutting between soul and spirit, be tween joint and marrow. It exposes our innermost thoughts and desires. 13.Nothing in all creation is hidden from God. Everything is naked and exposed before his eyes, and he is the one to whom we are accountable.

4:12-13 During hard times our faith tends to dwindle; we may grow angry and harden our hearts to the truth about ourselves. The antidote to this problem is the living Word of God, which has power to penetrate even the deepest denial. This is good news for those of us struggling to overcome a dysfunctional lifestyle and having a tendency to distort reality. God knows everything about us, even the things we try to hide from ourselves. We can count on him through his Word to expose the problems and needs we will face in recovery.

13.And remember, when you are being tempted, do not say, "God is tempting me." God is never tempted to do wrong,* and he never tempts anyone else. 14 Temptation comes from our own desires, which entice us and drag us away. 15. These desires give birth to sinful actions. And when sin is allowed to grow, it gives birth to death.
