Faith will be tested


Faith will be tested, hope will be tried, and love will be strained.

If we know Jesus went through all this, then how dare we complain about our everyday problems?
Courage comes in many forms.  Sometimes, it comes as an act of selfishness without thinking about it, but many times, it comes from facing your fear head-on.  The battle of the mind is where it begins.  That’s when The Lord shows up. He said to be strong and courageous many times in the Bible. We know Jesus won his mind battle the night before ever stepping onto the cross.

“Set your minds on things above, not on earthly things.”
Colossians 3:2 

So when difficulties come, remember that through testing comes pruning. It is the trials that God works most powerfully, shaping us into the spouses  He desires us to become more fruitful together in every season.

"Send this to a friend who needs encouragement."
