Christians. Sisters. Best Friends.

God’s plans for us are beyond our scope. It’s hard to know why we are going through the things we are. While we are still in the midst of it, it’s especially hard to know of what good is going to come from it all. We have to know that God sharpens us and He uses all things for His glory and for our good. We need to let our suffering get us to the point of where God needs us to be and let it sharpen us and glorify God. We need to be prepared for the rough times. God does not say that we will be without hard times as Christians. The Bible actually says to expect it, be ready. God brought Himself down to our level and chose to humble Himself and suffer for us, through Jesus. Jesus suffered more than we can imagine. All because he loves us. The pain that is a Crucification from those times! And know that He was sure to have it worse than others. But that’s not the pain I’m speaking of. When he took on all the sins of Christians that ever existed and will exist, that would have been…well I can’t even guess actually.  Know that whatever we go through, it’s worth the eternity in His presence. Remember to praise God through all of everything, like Job did.

‭‭Jeremiah‬ ‭12‬:‭5‬-‭6‬ ‭ESV‬‬
““If you have raced with men on foot, and they have wearied you, how will you compete with horses? And if in a safe land you are so trusting, what will you do in the thicket of the Jordan? For even your brothers and the house of your father, even they have dealt treacherously with you; they are in full cry after you; do not believe them, though they speak friendly words to you.””
