-surrendering your desire for something greater
-actually believing Romans 8:28 is possible
-crying out to God but leaving the results in His hands
-learning to live with a quiet peace when everything else around you doesn't make sense
-believing even though you really can't see
[Trust. Quietness. Goals Revised. Jehovah Jireh.]
It's easy to be transparent when everything is going good. Inspiring thoughts, challenging words, a passion to move ahead. But in the "fires of sorrow," we must be willing to be transparent, too.
It keeps us humble.
Makes us human.
Gives others a chance to bless you.
And it grows us up. One tiny step. One leap of faith at a time.
"Thank God that he does give us difficult things to do! His salvation is a joyous thing, but it is also something that requires bravery, courage, and holiness. It tests us for all we are worth." [Oswald Chambers]
