TRAINED BY TRIALS

The writer of Hebrews knew that Jesus was the best example of enduring hardships and trials. He knows and understands ours as well. Even in the garden, Jesus was faced with a trial/hardship that He knew was unbarable alone, in the part of Him that was human.

But, amazingly, He was able to see beyond the cross. He endured the immediate because He placed His eyes and mind on the ultimate objective goal of His hardship. Today sweet friend begin to look past your hardship and see beyond the cross, the ultimate purpose of your situation. Hebrews 5:8 tells us that Jesus, though He was God's Son, learned obedience from what He suffered. I pray you don't miss that! Jesus understands because He had to make the same decisions in obedience and He came out as a winner every time!
How about you....what is your level if commitment today. Will you allow your hardship to push you to obedience or fall short? 

When everything is going our way, it is so easy to say, I will serve You Lord. Then comes the test to prove our comittment to what we said. Your response to your trials has a lot to do with the benefits of what you will receive from them. 

Read Job 23:10.....God knows the way your life is going and no matter how dark or overwhelming your pathway may seem now, He has good things ahead. If you are serious in your relationship with God and are seeking restoration... Pray this simple pray with me
Lord Jesus, have Your way in my ordeal. Refine me, yes. Remake me, yes. And Restore me! In Your name I ask!

Hold Fast,
-Bren
