This afternoon I encountered these wise words from my sister in Christ, Joyce Meyer (one of my favorite authors/teachers):
"Being upset about your problems never changes them. A bad attitude is like a flat tire. If you don't change it, you won't go anywhere. Because God is always with us, we can go through trials in our lives with stable, positive attitudes, trusting Him completely, even against seemingly impossible odds."
1 Peter 1:6-7: "In this (your salvation) you rejoice greatly, even though now for a little while, if necessary, you have been distressed by various trials, so that the genuineness of your faith, which is much more precious than gold which is perishable, even though tested and purified by fire, may be found to result in (your) praise and glory and honor at the revelation of Jesus Christ."
Hang on to faith and hope, whatever you're facing. God can get you through it!
