Just a quick note for those of you struggling in your faith, being pushed into uncomfortable or painful places right now. I encourage you to recognize that you were called for such a time as this. God is intentional with how He positions us, often in other people’s lives, and it is always for His good purpose.
It’s our good pleasure to be placed by the living God in allowed places of confusion, doubt, pain or challenge, or for someone else’s sake. It’s always temporary and often for reasons we do not understand in the moment.
When we are in these places, remember that it is our reasonable service, offered in gratitude for being one of His chosen, to lay down on the altar of self-sacrifice for His purposes. This is how you earn your crowns that you will one day lay at the feet of Jesus. Stay hopeful, remain in worship, and allow God to accomplish all that His beautiful heart desires. He wastes no hurt and forgets none of your tears.
Be strengthened and blessed today in the name of our great God and Savior, Jesus Christ.
