Good Wood - #6657
The fire turns spiritual wimps into spiritual warriors. So, rejoice as you see what you are becoming or can become through heat-treating, and only through heat-treating. You are becoming a heavy hitter in the hands of Almighty God.

Seldom a Lot, But Always Enough - #6593
Take your assignment from God in 24-hour chunks. Count on enough grace for each day. My kids knew that their Father would see that they had what they needed that day. God's kids know their Father is much better than that.

Why the Coach Schedules Triple Sessions
Stay in the ring. You're building experience and that's what gives hope in suffering. There's no way to develop this kind of strength, this kind of toughness, this kind of durability without suffering first. If the coach has scheduled a triple session for you right now, don't despair. Don't give up. Don't quit. Don't leave practice. Let suffering develop patience, let patience develop experience, let experience develop hope.

Paul writes in Philippians that he has found out how to be satisfied when good things abound and when good things are absent. He knows how to be hungry and full.

"Suffer" in the Bible: Romans 8:18-27
There's no denying that life on earth involves pain and suffering. The writer of this passage, however, asks us to look at it from a different perspective: whatever we suffer here on earth, it's nothing compared to the glory that God has in mind for us.
