In the middle of our trouble and hard times here, just knowing how you’re doing keeps us going. Knowing that your faith is alive keeps us alive. ~ 1 Thessalonians 3:7-8 (MSG)
KEY IDEA:
Hard times come but the Lord lifts up his faithful people.PRAYER:
Lord, thank you for the lift. I confess that I get discouraged when hard times come -- self-convinced that I must be doing faith wrong or that it is not worth the effort. Refresh my faith and grow it so that I can see that difficulties are normal -- even for faithful people. I am going to keep on trusting in you. Amen.
