    Contributed by John Gaston on Jun 8, 2017
    based on 3 ratings
     | 12,276 views

    Our perspective on life's difficult events - seeing a positive meaning and purpose in them - can determine whether we view God and life positively. It is our choice whether we are positive or negative. Paul chose to be positive.

     | 7,117 views

    The Bible is NOT like any other book; its words are ALIVE! David compared God’s words to the purest gold, once it has finished going through the smelting process. The Word of God, like gold, is Trustworthy, Indestructible, Flawless, and Valuable.
