". . . not to please mortals, but to please God who tests our hearts . . . " 1 Thessalonians 2:4B
Dear Friends in Christ -
That's right, it's not your imagination. Sometimes God's doing exactly what you think He's doing: He's testing you.
What is the test that God is putting in front of you?
Yesterday, I asked God to give me an opportunity to do something on His list, and WOW! Today, I was presented with a doozie of a challenge: Something I didn't feel I had time to do, and when it came up, I could have said 'no.' But I said 'yes.' I was glad I did, because not the woman feel helped, but I think I caught a glimpse of the beginning of a miracle!
We don't want God to test us because we're afraid we'll fail. And we might. But even in trying, our focus is turned more toward the One who calls us to more goodness than we can ask or imagine.
Faithfully,
Janet+
