Thank you for your comment. Your ins...Dear Terry,<br /><br />Thank you for your comment. Your insights are powerful and profound. From my own experience, I have learned that the greatest trials in life provide us with the greatest opportunities to increase our faith in God and to trust in His loving care.<br /><br />Thank you for reminding us of the beautiful promises in Romans 8:28: "And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose."<br /><br />When I am in the midst of adversity, I sometimes cannot see the big picture. However, when I look back on my greatest trials, I realize that God was carrying me all along. Perhaps our challenge is to recognize God's hand in all things when we are in the midst of severe trials so that we can endure them better. That is sometimes easier said than done but definitely promotes peace.<br /><br />Thanks again for your comment.Carolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17366181407687279171noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1632669668601963799.post-61840035857526338692011-04-09T18:48:50.836-07:002011-04-09T18:48:50.836-07:00Carol, we are not smart enough to know what to be ...Carol, we are not smart enough to know what to be thankful for. your husband losing his job might be the greatest blessing you will ever receive? What if he would have been killed and taken from you driving to work one day? what if....? You see, many things in life that are tough, are really a blessing. that is why we have faith that no matter what, God is in control. Romans 8:28<br />TerryAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
