I woke up this morning receiving this email from Pastor Paul. After a summer filled with stories of trials, suffering, pain, and fear, God's faithfulness and love toward His people pierced through those clouds of despair. Read the words from Pastor Paul, who knows more about trials than I ever will, and be encouraged that whatever you may be going through RIGHT NOW will eventually serve as a testimony to God's faithfulness in your life. Use this as your devotion for today- and allow it to speak to your life.
Hello friends, Jack and Elaina, My daughter Kelsey.
Hope all is well with you, thank you for standing with us in prayers.Edith says hello to you all.
This morning i was studing about suffering and trials and God spoke to my heart in aspecial way which i thought i can also share with you and the church.
In the OT the prophets announced that, after a time of testing, God will wipe away the tears from the faces of his people and remove their disgrace.isiah25:6-9.
What is important in trials is to know how the Bible encourages us to face them. we need to affirm our confidence in love and tenderness of our God and father. It is He who allows us to experience these tests. But He provides away of escape from this trials. He does not allow them to last too long or to be too hard for us to bear.1corth10:13.
Howeverin God's hands, trials can become a tool to purify,to mature and to strengthen his children
Let us accept willingly all the trials through which we pass, never forgetting that testing of our faith produces persevererance. But let us be sure that this perseverance is allowed to finish it's work so that we may be mature and complete, not lacking any thing.Jas1:2-4.
Let us worship the Lord not because of the things we have but let us worship God because of WHO HE IS.
Greet one another with a kiss of Love, Peace to all of you who are in Christ Jesus.
From pastor paul, a servant of servants of God.
