Being Thankful for the Pain

Words are more powerful than you might think! There are words for LIFE and words for DEATH. We need to be positive THINKERS AND SPEAKERS! The Bible tells us to "Thank God in EVERYTHING"! That doesn't mean ONLY the good times, but the difficult ones too! These are the moments when we are the CLOSEST to Him and we need to recognize His presence IN them...To learn; to strengthen; and maybe just to experience something that will be useful in the future so we can witness to someone else going...

Words are more powerful than you might think! There are words for LIFE and words for DEATH. We need to be positive THINKERS AND SPEAKERS! The Bible tells us to "Thank God in EVERYTHING"! That doesn't mean ONLY the good times, but the difficult ones too! These are the moments when we are the CLOSEST to Him and we need to recognize His presence IN them...To learn; to strengthen; and maybe just to experience something that will be useful in the future so we can witness to someone else going through the same thing!! Complaining is a sin!! It means we are not trusting in HIS plan for us! We need to remember these times, THANK God for them, DISCERN what He wants us to learn from whatever the trial may be, and TALK POSITIVELY about THOSE blessings as well as the obvious ones like getting that new home, being promoted at work, the birth of a new baby. Anyone can recognize these gifts from God. But seeing the BEAUTY in the ASHES takes a heart that has been transformed by Jesus’s love for us. Only then, can we be just as appreciative for these “camouflaged” blessings from the Lord. In His gracious and permissive will, He not only holds us closer than ever, He uses these trials to strengthen us, teach us, and grow in our Gifts of the Holy Spirit. Xoxo God is Love!! Be the Light!!
