My Bible Verse of The Day - 5-14-25

Philippians 4:6-7 (NKJV) 6 Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; 7 and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.

As followers of Christ, learning and growing is a lifelong process. There is no beginning or end date.

Growth is something that God wants for each of us.

Part of that learning and growing process happens without us realizing it is happening.

It comes by way of the things we experience in our lives.

Difficulties can push us to grow in areas that we never desired to grow in. Adversity will cause us to reach beyond our perceived boundaries. It will stretch us.

Pastor Ellie and I have seen our share of adversities. We are not exempt.

Admittedly, while facing those difficulties we wanted them to go away. But we have learned to value what God taught us through them.

One of the most prominent and life-changing lessons was learning not to be anxious.

This was not an easy lesson to learn. It required that we fully surrender to God and follow every step He gave us.

But as we did this, He showed us His ways. And He led us through the storm that we were caught in, bringing us safely out the other side with stronger faith in Him than we had ever thought possible.

He has done this for us more than once. And each time taught us new, valuable lessons in faith and trust.

We are not special. He can and will do the same for you. Will you let Him?

Will you surrender to Him and let Him show you His ways, and walk you through whatever storm you may be facing?

It will change your walk with God.
