Trust His Word Of Truth

 When we understand that the will of God is to rid each of His children of all the accumulated clutter of our lives and burn away all that is of me, myself, and I, we are better equipped to face the affliction in the knowledge that the tests and trials that we are facing are but for a moment: "And when He has tried me, I shall come forth as gold."
 Job was a man that knew his God and trusted His Word, even though he did not understand why the furnace appeared to be heated seven times hotter. Like Job, we may not understand the divine purpose behind the cruel trials that we are obligated to bear, but His Word reminds us that God knows the plans He has for each of our lives – plans for good and not for evil. Let us Trust His Word Of Truth, knowing that when He has tested us in His furnace of affliction, we WILL come forth as pure gold.
But he knows the way that I take; when he has tested me, I will come forth as gold.

Our United Prayer:
Loving Father, we don’t understand all that is going on in our lives, but our times are in Your hands and so are the circumstances of those that we love. Thank You that all we face is under the shadow of Your protection. We pray that when w have been tried, we too will come forth as gold. We pray that we will trust in Your unfailing love and not be afraid. In Jesus' name we pray, AMEN.
