Transformed by trouble

Life is a series of problems. Not all are big, but they are significant in God's growth process for you.

It is when we are broken-hearted when we turn to God; and this is the time when He is closest to us. When we are in pain, we don't have the energy for superficial prayers.

"When life is rosy, we may slide by with knowing about Jesus, with imitating Him and quoting Him and speaking of Him. But only in suffering will we know Jesus!" - Joni Eareckson Tada.

Your most profound and intimate experiences of worship will be most likely be in your darkest days.

"We felt we were doomed to die and saw how powerless we were to help ourselves; but that was good, for then we put everything into the hands of God, who alone could save us."

You'll never know that God is all you need until God is all you've got!

Our problems are to shape us; to burn us until we are pure as gold or silver. It is when people see their reflection when the silver is pure - it is the same to us; it is when people see the reflection of Jesus when we are purest.

Romans 8:28; "And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love Him, who have been called according to His purpose."
