Bible Verse Reflection
It is possible for us to be confronted with dangers and challenges as well as be forced to endure disappointments and tragedies in life. Indeed, Jesus Himself reminded of us, that even in this sinful crying world, we’ll have to endure trials.
Paul reminds us that those who are godly will suffer the tribulations. But we are also assured that Christ’s blood has defeated sin. Though we face all kinds of trials, we are blessed because in everything God has a great plan for us.
My Prayer
Dear God, thank You that I have been called according to Your great purpose, for it is not Your will that any should perish but that all should come to repentance.
Thank You that in Him there is no condemnation, for we are one with Christ, by grace through faith in Him. Thank You, O God, that You are causing all things to work together to achieve Your great plan for mankind.
Thank You Lord that so often I see Your gracious hand working in my life and in the lives of all Your children, as You transform us into the image of the Lord Jesus. In Jesus name I pray. Amen.
