Jesus went without comfort so that you might have it. He postponed joy so that you might share in it. He willingly chose isolation so that you might never be alone in your hurt and sorrow. He had no real fellowship so that fellowship might be yours, this moment. This alone is enough cause for great gratitude!

It is a glorious thing to know that your Father God makes no mistakes in directing or permitting that which crosses the path of your life. It is the glory of God to conceal a matter. It is our glory to trust Him, no matter what.

Subdue your heart to match your circumstances.

What an encouragement to realize that God has reserved you and me for a special task in His great work. In His hands we're not only useful, but priceless.

God's purpose in increasing our trials is to sensitize us to people we never would have been able to relate to otherwise.

There is this fine line between presenting to You all of my weakness and thinking that it can't be done. In Your strength, I find my own.

God wants us to be a good example to others who are observing us.
