Sometimes in life it is so hard not to focus on the difficulties before us, but as we learn to keep our focus on God and His will for our lives, knowing that He has a plan and purpose for us, that His promises will be fulfilled, our faith will be strengthened.
We see in Romans 8:28 ‘And we know that God causes all things to work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to His purpose’.
How many times have you looked back on a trial you went through and saw how God worked everything out according to His plan in your life. As Peter said in 1 Peter 5:7 ‘Casting all your anxieties on him, because he cares for you’.
The Christian’s faith is strengthened as he keeps the promises of God before him and considers, not the difficulties in the way of the things promised, but the character and resources of God Who has made the promise.” ~ Paul Little
Stand firm, my friend, on God’s promises!
