It’s easy to trust during good times. Things work out. There is confidence in a good job, relationships and material things. But what are we really rejoicing over during these times? All these things are temporary while here on earth. It’s during the trials and uncertainties that we draw from our Lord’s strength. The peace that passes all understanding and the closeness to God during these times are when we really fellowship with God and grow into His likeness. These times of trust, closeness and fellowship are the things we store up in heaven. All else passes away.
Romans 8:35,37
Can anything ever separate us from Christ’s love? Does it mean he no longer loves us if we have trouble or calamity, or are persecuted, or hungry, or destitute, or in danger, or threatened with death? No, despite all these things, overwhelming victory is ours through Christ, who loved us.
