Count It All Joy
What kind of reaction do you have during tragedy? Do you blame God? Turn to sin? Or hold fast to the truth, despite the pain?

God is not finished defining who you are. You are a work in progress. Like a child asking, “Are we there yet?” at each new mile, trying to rush the journey is futile. . .
It’s easy to depend on God when all is well, but hard times may cause us to doubt Him. However, if you cling to God’s promises, you will experience tremendous growth. . .
So often in life, we look for ways to avoid troubles of any kind. But what would happen if we saw troubles as an opportunity for growth, rather than a roadblock?
Whether you’re called to be a firefighter or a teacher or a stay-at-home mom, you are important. Your life means something. God called you to fulfill that special role. . .
This world is sadly full of sorrow and disappointment. But God doesn’t allow our pain to be purposeless. It drives us to a closer, more dependent relationship with Him. . .
Disappointment can raise its ugly head when what we wanted doesn’t happen like we thought it should or doesn’t happen as fast as we planned. Don’t give up! Press on with your dream. . .
The Lord Jesus Christ doesn’t care about instant gratification. We need to learn the art of waiting on God. He will come through every time—but in His time, not ours. . .
How often do we become impatient and give up? The Word of God encourages us to keep going and to remember that, in His perfect timing, you will reap an unimaginable harvest. . .
Trials are never fun. But they’re still necessary. They don’t get easier, but when we get through one, we can look back to see growth and strength. . .
