Making 'John' / Making Me


Hello friends.

I hope you're catching all the latest news from Sharon via the email newsletters available at gospelaccordingtojohn.com and brucemarchiano.com

Bruce has always said that God is building a testimony through the making of JOHN, and I find it to be very true.

Psalm 25:4 reads like this in The Message paraphrase: "Show me how you work, God / School me in your ways." As we pray for Bruce's dad through his health ordeal, I find that I am no more making JOHN than it is making me -- as people, things, and events connected to JOHN become a tool in God's hand to broaden and deepen my ability to trust Him.

Every day is a new adventure for me. Of course this "adventure" includes cliff-hangers, soaring heights of emotion, but mostly (and most powerfully) moments of quiet submission to God in simple trust.

"Yes, LORD, walking in the way of your laws, we wait for you; your name and renown are the desire of our hearts"(Isaiah 26:8).
