Are you at the end of your rope? Suffering from trials and troubles? Perhaps it is the Lord’s discipline- given out of love for your good. Find hope and help in the first part of Hebrews 12.

The Apostle Peter to me is one of the great men of the Bible - not because he was so perfect and strong and patient and so much like the Lord - but because he was so imperfect and impetuous and impatient and so much like us! One of my favorite stories about Peter is found in Matthew chapter 14. ...read more

based on 1 rating

| 3,416 views

Trials and tests are no fun. James doesn’t tell us to consider it fun but to "consider it all joy." Trials and tests are gut wrenching and drawn out at times, but the one thing that we must know is that God is with us through the whole ordeal.

A unique look when the storms of life come like a hurricane.
