Good Morning,

Have  a great day ! Remember God does not make any mistakes you are fearfully and wonderfully made.

Romans 5:3-5 (King James Version)

 

 3And not only so, but we glory in tribulations also: knowing that tribulation worketh patience;

 4And patience, experience; and experience, hope:

 5And hope maketh not ashamed; because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us.

I find the biblical theology of "tribulation" to be a very interesting and thought provoking concept. 

(I remember my grandfather used to tell folks, "Be careful when you pray for patience...because God uses "tribulation" to produce it in us".  I believe that is soooo true!!!)

We "often" ("usually" if truth be told) find "tribulation" to be a terrible thing.  But we who are called by His name should change our prospective...and "Consider it all joy" as James says in James 1:1-4 when it comes to the "stuff" in life.

Amen! I totally agree.  I was taught the same thing by a youth counselor at church when I was young.

See Thanks for pointing that out !! I needed to read James Chapter 1 this morning too, especially verse 13-15!!

Thanks God for creating, Jesus for saving, and the Holy Ghost for sustaining ME!

Funny! I was taught the same thing growing up............never pray for patience but I can say now that I believe it's true.
