"Consider it pure joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you face trials of many kinds." James 1:2
Thought of the Day: Triumph in this choice will produce a blessing.
Today she pointed out that in today's verse we may not feel great joy in the middle of trials, but "we have to consider it." It is a choice...period. I will be honest in the middle of trials big or small I'm not always considering the joy. I'm thinking what have I done to put myself in this situation? What is God teaching me? How do I keep from get in this situation again? How long will this last? I do take comfort that whatever my trial or situation is, God wasn't surprised and He has a plan. Good, better, best keeps running through my head!!!! I want to have the self - control to make the better, best choice in any trial, not just with food.
Today's Prayer: Dear Lord, please help me when I feel tempted today. Triumph in the this trial matters to me, and I desire to persevere with Your guidance. Help me to consider the joy and choose the better option. In Jesus' name. Amen.
