good church day

I was pleasantly surprised when my old professor was the speaker in the church I went to today. He was hilarious (something he never was in class) and the sermon was amazing. It was about our belief in the power of God's word. The fact that when he says something, it is true. In creation, he spoke the world into existance and it was good. The passage was over one of Jesus' miracles, where a man travelles to the town Jesus is in and bows down at his feet asking him to save his son from a fatal illness. Jesus did not go - first he said something that seemed rude about only believing what we see. Then Jesus told the man that his son was well. The man had to go all the way home alone. All he had was what Jesus had said.
God promised me something months ago that now seems like a badd joke. A sick mind game, almost like a failed promise (which would ahve devastanting consequences). I ahve begun to wonder what will happen to my faith if this promise never comes true.
In church today He reminded me that his promises do come true. That when the creator of the universe says something, it IS true.
I'm still living in the pre promised land, but it IS true, and I have a little more peace because of that.
