I tell you this is a season of testing. We really need God's grace, strength and mercy.
What helps is if we keep our eyes fixed and focus on God and the prize at the end of the race. We also need to have a made up mind that somehow, someway and someday....God will be glorified by the turn around of this situation.
God does not want us to lose. His will is for us to overcome and be triumpant. When we have that assurance, we will not be fazed by problems, difficulties, trials or opposition. We will be able to birth something great out of the negatives we face.
I have proved this principle.
So I encourage you today
Move your focus away from the challenges, trials and difficulties....endure into the promise ..there is joy ahead
Hebrews 12
1 Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a huge crowd of witnesses to the life of faith, let us strip off every weight that slows us down, especially the sin that so easily trips us up. And let us run with endurance the race God has set before us.2 We do this by keeping our eyes on Jesus, the champion who initiates and perfects our faith.[a] Because of the joy[b] awaiting him, he endured the cross, disregarding its shame. Now he is seated in the place of honor beside God’s throne.3 Think of all the hostility he endured from sinful people;[c] then you won’t become weary and give up.4 After all, you have not yet given your lives in your struggle against sin.
Amen
Walk Good in Christ
Till we meet again
Pastor J
