Subject: Is our faith tested by trials? |
Bible Note: Hi Mark, I'm sure praying that God's children will understand how much He really loves us and wants us to be more than conquerers in this evil age. He wants so much for us to trust Him so completely that even when we're in a major trial we won't be discouraged and loose sight of our blessed hope. I'm also praying that the Lord of the harvest will thrust more laborers into His harvest. Keeping our eyes on Jesus and not what's happening in this world will keep us free to be the blessing He has called us to be. Like comforting those in stress with the comfort that He comforts us. We are too blessed to be stressed. AMEN |
