Are Facing A Firey Trial?

Journal Entry: Tue May 21, 2013, 6:41 AM


Hello to all you out there.  :hug:

For the past few days I have been in an emotional and spiritual battle.  Looking for answers to questions that have been plaguing (?) my mind and heart.   I think that everyone has been there more than we want to admit.  Anyways, I was reading my Bible this morning and I came across these verses in I Peter.  (New Kings James Version)  I felt led to share them with you.

I Peter Chapter 4 verses 12 and 13
verse 12  Beloved, think it not strange concerning the fiery trial which is to try you, as though some strange thing happened unto you: 13 but, rejoice, inasmuch as ye are partakers of Christ's sufferings; that, when his glory shall be revealed ye may be glad also with excedding joy.

Here are a few more verses that I just read that my help too.
I Peter Chapter 5 verses 8-11.
Verse 8. Be sober, be vigilant, because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour: 9 whom resist stedfast in the faith, knowing that the same afflictions are accomplished in you brethren that are in the world. 10. But the GOD of all grace, who hath called us unto his eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after that ye have suffered a while, make your perfect, stablish, strengthen, settle you. 11. To him be glory and doninion fore ever and ever. Amen.

If these verses seem hard to understand because of the wording, let me know and I will  add the explaining of the verses that my Study Bible has.  I would be more happy to do this if you wish.

When all seems lost, you feel there is no hope, call upon the LORD and share your situation/situations with Him.  TRUST AND BELIEVE  on HIM and all will be as it should be.  Through HIM and by HIM all things are POSSIBLE!  

When I go before the LORD in prayer, I may not get what I ask for, but through reading my Bible and studing the LORD'S word, I know that I will be given what is best for me.  

It say in the Bible GOD will never forsake you or leave you.  HE is always there.  When you think he has left you, HE is still there waiting for you to reach out to HIM.  Lay your troubles at HIS feet and your heart in HIS HANDS1   Surrend it all to HIM and let HIS WILL BE DONE.

Your answers may not come in an instant, but rest assured, when the time is right, the answers will come.  

May GOD BLESS YOU AND KEEP YOU  ALL IN HIS ETERNAL LOVE AND MERCY.  :hug:

P.S.  If you would like to share this with anyone, feel free to copy and paste it to your jounal.  :hug:
