Amen, Seth. What you right is so true…but the reality seems to be, especially in our comfortable culture that the prosperity Gospel is so much more attractive…
Soooooooooooooooo Trueeeeeeeeeeeeee.
I love this,
“God wastes nothing in our lives. He uses the experiences we’d rather forget to prepare us to fulfill our life purpose.”
Thank you for this reminder of God’s grace. The last lines can be difficult to accept even when we know they’re true.
Hebrews 2:10:
10For it was an act worthy and fitting that He, for Whose sake and by Whom all things have their existence, in bringing many sons into glory, should make the Pioneer of their salvation perfect through suffering.
Could we expect that we would be prepared to serve beside Him by any other means.
PS. I am very disappointed in your revisionist approach to the aforementioned Lakeland disaster, only because I have so much respect for you. We need people, particularly spiritual leaders, to be more passionate about what went wrong,in order that the fleeced and scarred sheep can be protected, i.e. kept away from such damaging whipping boys in future spiritual adventures.
I like this short but intense reminder. God is busy in our lives even when we are tempted to wonder if he is taking notice at all.
The process of becoming more like him is hard to understand, so maybe we need to stop trying to predict it or figure it out, but instead just trust.
