#fridayflash
On Fridays we break from a week of trending topics in news and entertainment for a quick verse and a prayer. While it's good to find God's truths in the topics that we read of and speak of everyday, we can get lost in the drama and complication of it all. It is good to take a break and just ponder the truths in His word, without needing to relate it to our current situations. I trust the scripture will speak to you if you open your heart for it to do so.
#scripture
James 1:2-3
Consider it pure joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance.
#prayer
Dear Lord,
My heart cries out with this prayer today. My own life has seen so many trials, as have the lives of my loved ones as well. This verse is so true, Lord, as this testing...this refining by fire has produced so much more trust, and strength in me, Lord. These tests have only and always made me want to fight ever harder to know You and be closer to You. I pray for strength in the face of hardship, Lord. I pray that you help me keep my eyes on the things that truly matter - those things of everlasting significance. In your holy, and precious name, Lord.
Amen
