Friday’s Favorite

Posted on by Streim

Haven’t had a such a great week physically… which is why I haven’t posted anything. 

BUT, as is always the case is with our Great Father and Savior it does get better.  I am still in a very painful condition, however today our Father showed me the purposes for my suffering, (because I asked) and I can say I rejoice in His love! 

1.  To refine me as gold (ouch!  that fire is hot and it hurts–but it so very much needed) 

” And I will bring the third part through the fire, and will refine them as silver is refined , and will try them as gold is tried : they shall call on my name, and I will hear them: I will say , It is my people: and they shall say , The LORD is my God.” Zechariah 13:9

2.  To keep me pliable in His Potter hands ( that’s not as “ouchy”, but it is uncomfortable)

“But now, O LORD, thou art our Father; we are the clay, and thou our potter ; and we all are the work of Thy hand.”  Isaiah 64:8

3.  To keep me calling on Him for all needs ( yea, sometimes I think I’m pretty adaptable to my physical conditions–now I know I’m not).

“Hear the right, O LORD, attend unto my cry, give ear unto my prayer, that goeth not out of feigned lips. ” Psalm 17:1

 I KNOW everyone of us in the Body of Christ can relate to this.

Many blessings for weekend.

There is joy, hope and peace in knowing the Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior. Everyday is a new day to share the the glorious Gospel message of grace and forgiveness; the blessings of hope; the Father God's eternal promises; and the importance of living daily in the will of God according to the Scriptures, especially now with the world in chaos and uncertainty. My life before I repented of all my sin, was washed clean by the blood of the Lamb of God-- Jesus Christ and was born again; was one of utter selfishness in every aspects of my life. I lived for ME and only me! Now I live for my Lord and soon coming King, rejoicing daily. I earnestly desire to share the message of the Gospel, encourage sisters/brothers in Christ by fervent prayer and studying the Holy Scriptures more each day.

  4. Great post! Sounds very familiar! I’m sorry that you’ve not been feeling well this week. I hope you’ll rebound very soon! I’m still suffering some residual effects of a recent severe flare up of the RSD! I’ll be praying for you! God bless!

  6. I’m sorry to hear about your week 😦 but it helps to know why we suffer when we do because it makes it bearable (to an extent). God has a divine purpose for the good and the bad. 🙂 I hope this week will be much better for you physically. I’ll be keeping you in my prayers. Be blessed.

  7. You are so right, I think knowing, understanding and accepting these simple spirutual truths gives us the much needed strength and courage to endure. How are you feeling today?
