What is a trial? According to Merriam Webster a trial is a test of faith, patience, or stamina. What does the bible say about trials? God puts them in our life to test our faith (kind of like the definition). Have you ever wondered why He put them there though? I know I have. I found myself asking why me, when I should be asking God to work through me. We may feel stuck at some point, and think that we can’t do anything to spread God’s glory, but we can! We have neighbors, parents, siblings, and friends. All of these people we can reach! My question is, are we going to let God use us in a way that could bring more people to him? My prayer for each of you this week is to step up at school, and not think of the hallways as a place to run through and dodge people on your way to class, but to think of them as mission fields.
Though we may be suffering from a trial right now, God is going to renew us and use us in a miraculous way! We just have to let him, and trust in him. Here are some verses that I read earlier this week and have helped me:
1st Peter 12-13.
1st Peter 5:10
I love you girls, and I’m praying for you, and if you ever need to talk, I’m here!
