Job 20-22, 2 Corinthians 1:1-11, Psalms 40:11-17, Proverbs 22:2-4
What God said to me – They say hindsight is twenty-twenty. As you reflect back on your life you see the many trials and heartaches and difficulties that you experienced. While you wouldn’t necessarily want to go through them again as you look back now you can see how I provided and how I worked and how I comforted and how I taught you and how I brought you safely through. They were life-changing and faith-building experiences even though they were difficult at the time. They were for your good and for My glory, but they were also not just for you. The things I taught you – the ways I provided for you – the ways I comforted you and brought you through were so you could come alongside others who are experiencing trials and difficulties and comfort them with the same comfort and share about My faithfulness and presence throughout it all. You went through the things you have experienced for a reason – look for opportunities to share and to minister and to comfort – be My hands and feet.
