“DO NOT RESIST OR RUN from the difficulties in your life. These problems are not random mistakes; they are hand-tailored blessings designed for your benefit and growth. Embrace all the circumstances that GOD allows in your life, trusting GOD to bring good out of them. View problems as opportunities to rely more fully on The LORD . When you start to feel stressed, let those feelings alert you to your need for GOD. Thus, your needs become doorways to deep dependence on The LORD and increasing intimacy between GOD and yourself. Although self-sufficiency is acclaimed in the world, reliance on GOD produces abundant living in HIS kingdom. Thank The LORD for the difficulties in your life, since they provide protection from the idolatry of self-reliance.” para-phrased – “Jesus Calling” by Sarah Young
“I am the vine; you are the branches. If a man remains in me and I in him, he will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing.” JOHN 15 : 5
We do not want you to be uninformed, brothers, about the hardships we suffered in the province of Asia. We were under great pressure, far beyond our ability to endure, so that we despaired even of life. Indeed, in our hearts we felt the sentence of death. But this happened that we might not rely on ourselves but on God, who raises the dead. 2 CORINTHIANS 1 : 8 – 9
. . . always giving thanks to God the Father for everything, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. EPHESIANS 5 : 20
Prayer: Lord help me to embrace all the circumstances you allow in my life, trusting you to bring good out of them. And to rely on you more on difficult days. You give me the exact amount of daily bread I need for each day. You know what’s up ahead. I trust your will. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
