Trials Come To make You Strong

 

It’ Have you ever wanted to quit in life?  You no longer had the desire or motivation to go on.  Have you ever wanted to break down and cry?  You no longer wanted to act as though everything was perfect in your life.  So often in our lives, we no longer have the will to continue.  The outcome no longer seems promising.  Many people attempt to encourage you, but you cannot see the sun over the horizon.  Have you been there?  Are you there now?

 What do you do when everything seems to be against you?  Do you quit?  Should you quit?  My friend, Trials Come To Make You Strong!  Growing up my grandfather would always tell me, “Son, what does not kill you, will always make you stronger!”  The Bible declares in Psalms 46:1 NIV - God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.  The Lord knows how much you are able to handle.  He knows when you are at your breaking point.  He knows when you are in need of strength and encouragement.  The Bible declares in 2 Corinthians 12:9 NIV-  My grace is sufficient for thee: for my power is made perfect in weakness." Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ's power may rest on me.
My brother, my sister, Trials Come To Make You Strong!  God will not allow your trials to destroy you.  When things seem to be wrong, God is present.  When past decisions attempt to resurrect, God is present.  When people desire to destroy you, God is present.  The Bible declares in Romans 5:3 NIV- Not only so, but we also rejoice in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; perseverance character; and character, hope.  God can strengthen you in the most uncomfortable situations. 

Scripture Reading for the Day: Romans 8:35-39 NIV
