Enduring trials.

(i have wrestled with God furiously about trials....it is only through messages like this that God grants me "light" to see the "bigger picture)

Thank GOD for messages like this one.

Thanks for sharing brinny.

Watching that video about "Run for your life" and remembering we are at war. I was reminded of what somebody had told me in a thread about who can baptize. He told me that "some believers are just called to sit in pews". Not all believers are called to do something for God, I was amazed.

Amen!!! That's TRUE!!!! Not EVERYONE is called to do certain things. It IS good to know that.

I love that message. It's been a HUGE blessing to me.

Praise God!!!

Just listened to this song which is very comforting to me. The way we are seen through Jesus Christ's eyes. :)


And this one touched me a lot a few days ago. It is also a nice way of thinking of how God sees us all.

In Matthew 4 Satan tempted Jesus with 3 different things. 1 John 2:15-17
Command these stones to be made into bread - the lust of the flesh.
Showed Him all the kingdoms of the world - the lust of the eyes.
Tried to get Him to tempt God - pride of life

But with Eve, he only needed one temptation to get her to display all three aspects.
She saw the fruit was good for food - lust of the flesh.
It was pleasant to they eyes - lust of the eyes.
Could make her wise (apart from God) - pride of life.

This guy was saying that some believers are just called to be ministered to and not do anything but to sit in pews.
I believe every believer has a role to play. Just as in an army, there are no soldiers called to sit on the sidelines.
