I had the pleasure of meeting Pastor Henry Convington and his wife Annette of I Am My Brothers Keeper in Detroit, Michigan years ago. So I was excited to learn more of their story when I saw the movie Have a Little Faith.
Pastor Covington’s life was a great example of the complete transformation that Jesus makes in our life. He was a drug dealer and addict until he hit his rock bottom and surrendered his life to Jesus.
Jesus is always there for us and he wants to take care of us. But we have a choice. We can choose to live however we want and ignore Jesus or we can choose to follow Jesus and trust him to take care of us.
Pastor Covington hustled for what he thought he wanted and it almost cost him his life. But when he turned his life to Jesus instead of taking from people, God gave him the opportunity to give to people..
Don’t be afraid to do what God has asked of you. Trust that he will you take care of you and will never fail. God is the same yesterday, today and tomorrow. Trust that his promises and provision don’t change. We just have to chose him instead of our fear, worry and anxiety. He will give us his peace, provision and love.
