Trials in life
A daily success key from Pastor Rob Thompson says
1 Peter 1:7
“These trials are only to test your faith, to show that it is strong and pure. It is being tested as fire tests and purifies gold – and your faith is far more precious to God that mere gold. So if your faith remains strong after being tried by fiery trials, it will bring you much praise and glory and honor on the day when Jesus Christ is revealed to the whole world.” (NLT)
Trials comes in may shapes, sizes & forms. My trial right now is one of patience and perserverence. I'm blessed with knowing what to do in life and Praise Jesus for that. But with it comes a time of waiting. Waiting for the right time and opportunity.
Oh how many times have I not passed this test, trying to create opportunity myself instead of relying on the Lord for provision and getting into unnescessary trouble which ultimately prolongs my time of waiting.
Pastor Kong talked about the power of focus and it is indeed important for us to be wise in selecting the right things to focus on, least we end up neglecting the things that are right before our eyes, screaming for our attention and missed the great opportunity that God has made for us.
May God grant all of us wisdom and understanding to the times in our lives! Amen!
Trials are the only things that stand between us and the Land of Promises.
