By knowing and understanding the God you serve, you are able to rest
and trust him to get you through the storm. If Jesus tells us to take
joy despite our problems, he must have a way for us to do so. We know
by all that is true that God cannot lie. In every one of our troubles,
God is present and working them out. You don’t have to feel him or see
him working to know that he is causing all things to be used for your
good. It is by faith, which is greater than silver or gold, that we
trust despite our pain. My friends, you must understand that while this
earth is not heaven, it is here that God is getting us ready to be
royalty in a glorious place that will never end! It is difficult to
endure the hardships that surround us each day, but it is not
impossible. The sacrifice of Jesus on the cross gave us hope that our
future is secure. If he has the hairs on your head numbered, he surely
is not going to forget to help you when you need him. In his timing,
you will understand that he never left you for one second! The Apostle
Peter took his eyes off of Jesus when he was walking on the water and
began to sink.
