Enduring trials

“A man who endures trials is blessed, because when he passes the test he will receive the crown of life that God has promised to those who love Him.”
‭‭James‬ ‭1‬:‭12‬ ‭HCSB‬‬

Today I had another trial: I heard my dog was suffering and I needed to release more of my possessions, some that I had particularly enjoyed. I also had to die to offence and become a servant. A challenging day, however, I survived, intact.

This period of leaving and cleaving to the Lord is not easy. The funny thing is my memories are all I have just now. I must step into the unknown and trust that it will indeed be better. The Lord tends to take me from good to best, so I must trust Him for that.

Faith is stepping into the unknown and trusting our God for His best purposes. Here I go! Amen!
