06 Apr When we are under pressure.
It takes a long time and an incredible amount of pressure to turn a worthless piece of carbon into a valuable diamond.
🎯The Scriptures say: ‘When troubles of any kind come your way, consider it an opportunity for great joy.
🎯When our faith is tested, our endurance has a chance to grow.
💥So let it grow, for when your endurance is fully developed, you will be perfect and complete, needing nothing.’
🎯Once we grasp that Scriptural truth, whenever our life is interrupted by problems or circumstances we didn’t anticipate, we will begin to see God’s hand at work in all of it.
💥The truth is that you’re either in a trial right now, just coming out of one, or heading towards the next one.
💥They come in every conceivable variety. Like the letters you get through your letterbox, some are addressed simply to ‘The Occupant’.
🎯Will Rogers once read a newspaper headline that said, ‘Innocent Bystander Shot in New York.’ He quipped, ‘How about that?
💥All you have to do to get shot in New York is be innocent and stand by!’
🎯That’s how it is with life’s trials. Just stand by—and you’ll get hit.
🎯But the fact remains that it takes adversity to produce spiritual maturity.
💥It can’t come any other way. Jesus said, ‘In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.’
