Prayer
FATHER GOD, it is hard to desire testing in order to be more Christlike. However, I know from experience that we rarely grow in good times. It's the intense heat that makes us pure. May I be gold and not wood, hay, or stubble. In JESUS'S name. Amen.
Thoughts For Action
- Write down in your journal what pain and/or test you are experiencing today.
- Take a step to help yourself work toward becoming as gold.
- Write al letter to GOD about how you feel.
- Get involved in a support group.
Psalm 66:10-12 King James Version (KJV)
10 For thou, O God, hast proved us: thou hast tried us, as silver is tried.11 Thou broughtest us into the net; thou laidst affliction upon our loins.
12 Thou hast caused men to ride over our heads; we went through fire and through water: but thou broughtest us out into a wealthy place.
2 Corinthians 4:7-9 King James Version (KJV)
7 But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellency of the power may be of God, and not of us.8 We are troubled on every side, yet not distressed; we are perplexed, but not in despair;
9 Persecuted, but not forsaken; cast down, but not destroyed;
