“God's people have their trials. It was never designed by God, when he chose his people, that they should be an untried people. They were chosen in the furnace of affliction; they were never chosen to worldly peace and earthly joy. Freedom from sickness and the pains of mortality was never promised them.” CH Spurgeon These words by Spurgeon reflect a certain reality that our contemporary culture has a hard time dealing with. God has not promised to take away our struggles or to fix every problem. What He has promised to do, is to give meaning and context to the hardships that we face in this broken world around us. Because of sin, the world around us does not function or work in the way God intended; one day it will once again, but not today. IN the meantime, God has promised to give purpose and hope to the hearts and minds of His people during their times of struggle. Join us in this message as we see what God has promised to do.
