Trials

For you have waited long for My Rescue to occur but you have also learned the Art of Waiting. For you have learned that just because you want something does not bring it closer. For the art of waiting includes an attitude of surrender. It’s an awareness and an acknowledgment that My Ways are Higher than yours. (Isaiah 55:8, 9) For I see the Big Picture and you see a fraction of it. You are affected by the discomfort of the situation you are in. I see all the people and their needs and I also see those who need a Savior. (II Peter 3:9) You have also learned to press in to ME as you disregard your complaints and seek ME for strength in your weariness (Isaiah 40:29-31). For I have shown you what is good and it is to walk humbly with ME (Micah 6:8). I have also sent you prophets and those who hear My voice (Amos 3:7) to bring you encouragement and to share My heart with you and to give you understanding and also a teaching of who I AM but also who you are in ME. So you have learned much through these trying times and I want you to ask yourself—would I have learned all these things without the trials? Would I have grown this much without them?


James 1:2-4 “Consider it pure joy, my brothers, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith develops perseverance. Perseverance must finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything.” Vs. 12 “Blessed is the man who perseveres under trial because when he has stood the test, he will receive the crown of life that God has promised to those who love him.”
