What I Believe about Trials...

I have come to the point in my life where I believe the following about trials:

1. Trials will continue to come into my life as long as I am alive.
2. Trial are for my good.
3. God has a solution to the trial before it ever starts.
4. He alone has allowed the trial because the enemy can't do anything to me without my Father's permission.
5. God won't let the trial last one second longer than is necessary.
6. I will come out the other side with more spiritual maturity than I had before the trial started.
7. Being thankful for the trial makes the trial go by faster, allows the Lord to teach me all that He cares to during the trial and takes away all the glory my enemy would like to get from the trial.
8. That the Lord will give me the strength to go through the trial.

I guess the Lord has taught me some things, huh? Thank you, Lord!

He tells us He will never put more on us than we can bear. Amen!
I believe He will turn our trials into testimonies and our messes into messages.

The greater the trial, the greater the testimony, the greater the testimony, the greater the ANNOINTING!!! Through that trial HE builds character in us, through that testimony HE honors us, and with HIS annointing he uses us.

Either HE loves me or not.
Either HE directs my path or not.
Either HE allows me to stay on earth or not.
Either HE is in charge or not.
Either HE takes care of business or not.
Either HE comes through or we all die.
Either I accept HE is in charge or I don't.

Very simple, really.

In all things give thanks because HE is in charge and I'm not. Yea!

Girlfriend, I'm having so much fun on your blog today. Thanks for all these fun, motivating topics. You're awesome and I appreciate the atmosphere you're creating for HIM.

Thanks!

Every problem, every issue is an opportunity to gain a better relationship with Our Father and a deeper understanding of his will for our lives. As the saying goes, "God's will, will never take you where His grace can not keep you." We are at all times loved and protected and we should be thankful for the trials because they serve to show that he feels we are strong enough to take on more and more. I see it as the ultimate promotion!

Reallysaved..
You have definatly nailed this one down exactly right. Spoken like a trooper, from expereince I assume. Paul speaks about this very same thing. Count it a blessing our trials. I do. I see it as that God loves us enough not to leave us where He first found us and most times, all times, it takes these trials and the lessons that we learn from them to accomplish this. I am continually amazed at how great our Father in Heaven is and how only He, and He alone can teach us the lessons that He does in the wonderful ways that He does. The words He speaks do not condemn, they promote well being in cases, in only the ways that He is able to make them very real to our hearts.

You have to have vision to overcome in this lifetime. I just view things as life. I also just believe Jesus is always with me.things aint nothin but things...and many are self inflicted
