Trials

The book we are using for our Bible study is about trials. Our lesson for this week was about embracing them as friends. I really could have spent several more hours in Bible study tonight. Not because I specifically need to talk about my trials, but because I wanted to talk about how to embrace them and about forcing myself to let control go. Letting go of control is so hard sometimes. But in the end we do NOT have control anyway. Our loving Lord God does. He has ALWAYS had control. So we are fooling ourselves in thinking we do have control. I am so thankful God is in control and I have Him to lean on. I think I'm needing a lot of Christian fellowship right now.

  1. Angie: Here is a prayer I find helpful:

    Most Sacred Heart of Jesus, I consecrate my body and my soul to be entirely one with Your Heart, giving praise to the Father, pleading for the coming of His Kingdom.

    Please receive this humble offering of myself. Use me as You will for the glory of the Father and the salvation of souls.
