Shaping us

“Friends, when life gets really difficult, don’t jump to the conclusion that God isn’t on the job. Instead, be glad that you are in the very thick of what Christ experienced. This is a spiritual refining process, with glory just around the corner.” – 1 Peter 4: 12 – 13 (MSG)
WHEN tragedies shake us, at home or abroad, remember the true gospel as summed up in Acts 14: 22: It is through many tribulations that we enter the kingdom of God. It isn’t easy. Like Christ, tough times will shape us, prepare us and refine us for the time when God’s will is done here  on earth as it is now, always has and always will be done, in heaven.

PRAYER THOUGHT: Help us, Father, get  through whatever life brings so we can know Your glory. Amen.
