-Every week is a miracle at church
-Memorized the Living Christ!
---> Cool miracle related to that:
The Elders found a friend for us, but when she came to the lesson she brought her friend who is from America! Teaching in English is always so odd. During the lesson I found myself reciting phrases from the Living Christ while we were explaining about Jesus. I had been feeling prompted to memorize the Living Christ for a long time, but it wasn't until this past week that I really locked in. In that moment I realized that God needed me to know those phrases so I could share them and help people recognize their Savior. Amazing!
READ THIS PART Some thoughts on tribulation:
Romans 5
3 And not only so, but we glory in tribulations also: knowing that tribulation worketh patience;
4 And patience, experience; and experience, hope:
I am grateful to have grown up in a home that truly does glory in tribulation. It is a lesson that once learned will change your attitude forever.
I have struggled to teach this concept. We invite people to change their lives, but it is hard! Not a lot of people understand that it is hard on purpose.
How did Jesus himself come to stand on the right hand of His Father and sit in His throne? He went through the hardest thing anyone has ever, or will ever go through in all of human existence. He overcame. We must do the same.
Revelations 3
21 To him that overcometh will I grant to sit with me in my throne, even as I also overcame, and am set down with my Father in his throne.
When we are asked to do hard things, it is a plea to overcome. God is inviting us to do what is necessary to sit with Him, in His throne, in His kingdom. He is beckoning us with arms of love, calling each and every one of us by name! Every invitation to do something hard is an invitation to come unto Him.
As we glory in tribulation, we glory in our God. We accept the gift. We accept the invitation. We become perfected in Christ.
