Good Morning:
Our text today is found in John 16:33:
These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.
May the words of John be an encouragement to you and may the following lyrics to the song Through The Fire by the Crabb family be uplifting.
Through The Fire:
So many times I've questioned certain circumstances
Things I could not understand
Many times in trials, weakness blurs my vision
It's then I am reminded I've never been forsaken
I've never had to stand the test alone
As I look at all the victories the spirit rises up in me
And it's through the fire my weakness is made strong
(chorus)
He never promised that the cross would not get heavy
And the hill would not be hard to climb
He never offered our victories without fighting
But he said help would always come in time
Just remember when you're standing in the valley of decision
And the adversary says give in
Just hold on, our Lord will show up
And he will take you through the fire again
(bridge)
I know within myself that I would surely perish
But if I trust in the hand of God, He'll shield the flames again
(repeat chorus)
Blessings
