All of us have had #tests in #school to show our retention of the facts that were relevant to that academic #achievement. What about other unforeseen tests that pop up in our lives? How do you handle the unknown? Blow outs, unexpected illness, storms, floods, and death are just a few of the many trials we face in this life. Where do you turn? Does God test us? What does His Word tell us? Ps. 66:10,11 “For thou, O GOD, HAVE PROVED US; THOU HAVE TRIED US AS SILVER IS TRIED. Thou brought us into the net; thou laid affliction upon our loins.” Moses said unto the people Exodus 20:20 :”Fear not: for God is come to prove you, and that His fear may be before your faces that you sin not.” David said in Ps.17:3 “Thou Lord has proved my heart; and thou visited me in the night; thou has tried me.” So now what is your response to the trials? I pray that we will respond to Paul’s plea in Romans 12:1,2 “I beseech you therefore brethren, by the mercies of God, that you present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service. And be not conformed to this world; but by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.”
