Joy in the Midst of Trials

Have you experienced a setback? Have you been side-lined? Maybe you have done nothing to deserve some mistreatment. Maybe your future is uncertain. You know you are not in control.

But God is. Take your eyes off your circumstances and put them on the Lord. He is able. Trust Him in your difficulties. You will not miss your destiny. “God who began a good work in you will complete it until the day of Christ Jesus.” Philippians 1:6. Don’t get mired down in your current situation, don’t complain. Praise God. Pray for others. Be thankful. And as you set your eyes on the things above you may be surprised that you, like Paul, will find joy in the midst of trials.
