Romans 5:3-5 "Embrace Your Suffering" (August 2)

Romans 5:3-5 ~

Justified.

So we have peace with God. 

Access into Grace. 

Hope of the Glory of God in our little lives. 

MORE than that----you mean there's more, God? 

Suffering produces Endurance.

Endurance produces Character. 

Character produces Hope. 

Love is literally poured into our Hearts. 

Grace Abounds.

What stirs in you?  No formula thing.  Are you finding the peace of God no matter what circumstances He allows?  The bottom line is Truth---what's true in your life this day?  Are you moving in your small sufferings to love your husband, your families?  Or has our pain deterred our determination?  The Spirit of God looks into your heart today...searching for waiting vessels so that He may pour His Love in your heart.  Not because of how good you've been, how good you are.  Because He loves you so!

  2. Pray for Annette as she counts down the days til her adorable son's wedding. What a great mom she has been passing on a beautiful heart to her kids. Deut 6:6. Her last child to marry. May God's Hand be all over them! Today is Annette's anniversary! God's Hand has been on her mountain, Isaiah 25:10. She has so honored her God with what she has done with her life. I'm just amazed! Shaking my head over here. A tremendous privilege to know a life like hers standing tall in His Presence. Psalm 50:3. Happy Anniversary Dear Friend!

  3. My gosh, what sweet blessing you speak over me, Bev. Your words are calming as I question so much these last few months, feeling like I have failed my husband and now grown kids in the important things.

    I know He takes care of the details--I'm living proof.
    No formula for sure, pure Grace...and spiritual eyes to see Him.

    Love you all here. Thanks for your prayers.
