Testing of our faith produces perseverance!


 As children of GOD we are not guaranteed a trial free life.  In fact, quite the contrary is so often closer to the reality of what we will face.

What GOD wants from us is an unwavering faith in HIS grace, in HIS goodness, in HIS mercy, in HIS righteousness.

And the reality of our lives is that we will need refinement to reach maturity in our faith, not lacking in anything, but complete.

So when we face trials and tribulations, what do we need to do.  We need to take all our cares and our troubles to Jesus.  Our Saviour, our Redeemer.  We need to trust that what we are enduring will make us more like Jesus. 

This does not mean that we will like what we are facing.  But what it will do is to build our reliance on our FATHER in Heaven.  It will build our faith and trust in GOD.  It will make us mature and fit for purpose.  The purpose of going out and doing the works GOD has prepared for us. 

Prayer:  ABBA FATHER as we face 2023, we thank YOU for the trials we may experience.  FATHER a new year does not guarantee no trials or tribulations.  FATHER help us to trust in YOU more and more through any trials we may face this year.  We humbly pray this in the Holy Name of Jesus Christ.  Amen.

Stay faithfully GOD blessed today!
