Romans 8:15 "For you did not receive a spirit that makes you a slave again to fear, but you received the Spirit of sonship. And by Him we cry "Abba, Father.". The spirit of fear is paralyzing!! I get “afraid” things wont turn out the way I want them to. Why I fear this is silly, hardly anything turns out the way “I want”. I let my fears of unwanted outcomes race through my head. Then I plan my action to make things happen according to the “ Kimberly plan”. This entire cycle is disastrous. Romans 8:28. “And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love Him….” TRUST!!!! Remember Job? He coildnt possibly have been able to understand the horrible of what happened to Him, but here we are thousands of years later , praying, “ God give me the patience of Job”. Today be inspired to be patient and hopeful in trials. Romans 8:29 “For those God foreknew He also predestined, to be conformed to the likeness of His Son,….” All these trials and outcomes we cant control work together so we can be molded into the likeness of Jesus. Have you ever heard of “growing pains”? Let’s embrace our growing pains today, they are helping us grow!!!
