Have you ever experienced occurrences that were back to back that made you feel your faith was being bruised?
It seemed like every few moments something new appeared in your life!
With every occurrence, you chose to muster up all the strength you had to push through the pain.
Because you believe if you simply ‘keep going’, you will eventually arrive at a place where everything you have gone through will be worth the fight!
Do you ever think about this as a believer in faith?
Jesus shares in the Bible, John 16:33 to be exact, that you will face many trials, but take heart! He has overcome the world.
You may wonder what this exactly means for you.
As a Christ follower, you can have peace while relying on Christ when you are faced with trying circumstances.
Since you are a Christ follower, you can be confident that your outcome will result in victory when you face those trying circumstances!
Damage can lead to a great design.
Have you ever looked up a recipe for banana nut bread?
If you ever took a simple search in Google, some of the best banana nut bread recipes are made by damaged and ripe bananas.
Unripe bananas simply will not do!
The bananas will need time to mature through being bruised in order to make a delicious creation.
This can be applied to you spiritually!
As we shared last week, James 1:2-5 states:
Consider it pure joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance. Let perseverance finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything.
You were created by the Creator of all things, God.
And, God has good plans for you, friend.
You are one of His greatest designs and your life will be a great example!
When trials comes, remember what you face is all to bring God glory.
Hang in there, victory is coming for you!
