Life Is The Classroom For Growing Godly Character

How do you respond when your carefully laid out plans go awry? God uses those situations for growing Godly character in our lives!

You’ve heard it. You may have even said it, “Praying for patience is dangerous, because the only way to learn it, is to be tested!” That’s part of growing Godly character, right?

And then what happens? Yep, stuff. Lots of it.

Who willingly asks God to test them? Do we really want to go through all of that?

The truth is, if we want to develop godly character, we must be willing to “go to school” in order to learn it, and Life is our classroom. In fact, I think family is our homeroom. There is nothing quite like family to show you your true self. Yep, I speak as a student.

How do you respond when your carefully laid out plans go awry? God uses those situations for growing Godly character in our lives!

Last week I wrote about relinquishing control of my circumstances by laying down my conductors baton and letting God have His way.

True Confessions

That very night, God tested me on this. I didn’t ask Him to, but since I wrote about it, I guess He felt I needed to stay after for tutoring. I was in a situation that had the potential to become frustrating unless certain things were arranged in advance to avoid it. So that’s what I did. I picked up my baton and began arranging things just so.

Except “just so” wasn’t to be. Other participants and unavoidable circumstances joined forces so that I was completely out of control. All I could do was wait it out. I did not respond well.

Looking back, I see myself waving my baton wildly in the air, like a conductor who is frustrated with his orchestra. I didn’t pass my test.

Another morning this week followed a similar pattern. I needed to be someplace at a particular time. But other needs jumped in front of that one–including traffic, long red lights, and a very, slow train. Once again I found myself frustrated and upset. People were counting on me, and I was late!

Frustration is the normal response when plans don’t pan out. How I react to the frustration shows what’s going on in my heart. Sitting at a red light, waiting for a long, slow train, I pitched a little fit right in my car. Immediately God whispered in my ear, This is not how I want you to react! I’m in control of your schedule. Everything is fine. Relax! You were in a hurry this morning. This can be an opportunity to take a breather.

Please hear me when I say that it’s good and right to plan! A wise person thinks ahead and makes plans accordingly. It’s our response when those plans go awry that indicates what’s in our hearts and where growing Godly character needs to take place. So, what to do?

Growing Godly Character

Part of my daily planning should include offering those plans to the Lord from the very beginning–almost expecting that He may have another plan altogether. Then willingly accepting those changes as they happen, not pitching a fit like a two-year-old. If I start out this way, chances are I will be much more flexible as circumstances change–which they certainly will.

Don’t brag about tomorrow, since you don’t know what the day will bring. (Proverbs 27:1)

Look here, you who say, “Today or tomorrow we are going to a certain town and will stay there a year. We will do business there and make a profit.” How do you know what your life will be like tomorrow? Your life is like the morning fog—it’s here a little while, then it’s gone. What you ought to say is, “If the Lord wants us to, we will live and do this or that.” Otherwise you are boasting about your own pretentious plans, and all such boasting is evil. (James 4:13-16)

On a different day this week, I got into my car and prayed, Lord, please order my steps during the next few hours. You know what needs to happen today. I went on about my business and didn’t think about it again. There were several things I was hoping to accomplish, but I didn’t; I wasn’t bothered by it at all. What a difference it makes starting out on the right foot!

It seems I’ve been having a lot of pop quizzes this week! Hopefully next week I’ll score better!

What about you? How are you fairing in the classroom of growing Godly character?

    Do you really want to know? Haha…My week went much like yours: aggravated, frustrated, and failing my tests too. Thank God He is using these trying times not only to test us, but to educate us and grow us in Him. All I can say is that I’m glad it’s behind me, learned some lessons, and now I’m studying up for the next quiz. 🙂

    I so agree with all you have written here. I had to smile about the praying for patience part. I’ve been thinking about that a lot lately, how we learn these things the hard way. He really knows what He’s doing though. Life lessons are the most effective. I’ve been praying close to your same words almost every morning: “Lord, please order my steps during the next few hours. You know what needs to happen today.” I get far too caught up in my plans and He is showing me that’s just not going to work :).

    Growing Godly character is something that I have spoken about over the years. I also included an entire week of Bible study on the topic in my first study. It is a topic we do not hear talked about much these days. You did a great job with this.

  4. Stefani | Walls of Home says

    January 30, 2016 at 9:34 pm

    This is just great, Dianne! I am so glad I’m not the only one that writes a post and then doesn’t always live it out right away. SO thankful for God’s grace!!

  5. Ginger Harrington says

    January 31, 2016 at 7:55 pm

    Frustration…oh dear. Must we talk about that one? I’m working on remembering to offer my day to the Lord before hitting the ground running.

  6. Dianne Thornton says

    January 31, 2016 at 9:33 pm

    Go, Jennifer! Praying this week is better for you. But really, praying you are a flexible student!! Love you!!

  7. Dianne Thornton says

    January 31, 2016 at 9:48 pm

    Candace, I love that God has a much wiser plan for our lives. Sometimes I feel like a child with Him! But you know … I am. And He is a patient Father. Let’s keep moving forward together!

  8. Dianne Thornton says

    January 31, 2016 at 9:51 pm

    Thanks for this encouragement, Leah. When I went to bed last Friday night, I knew this would be the next post. But I didn’t want it to be. But as the week unfolded, it became more and more clear. Truly, it’s the messiness of life where we learn to live our faith. In the living, the writing, the reviewing, the commenting … God drives this home even further. I’m so thankful for Him.

  9. Dianne Thornton says

    January 31, 2016 at 9:57 pm

    Amen, Stefani! It’s not comfortable at all! But you know, as long as I lay it all out there, God can use it … in my life and in others. Love you!!

  10. Dianne Thornton says

    January 31, 2016 at 9:58 pm

    So I know we have been online at the same time … But I’m finally getting to my comments!! Oh, Ginger … Such a difference it makes.

    February 1, 2016 at 10:31 am

    I have learned I want to pass the test the first time so I don’t have to keep re-taking it!!! HELP ME,LORD!

  12. Tara says

    February 1, 2016 at 2:58 pm

    God knew what God was doing when he defined patience as a virtue. Because patience is indeed a virtue. I think we all have to work on this Godly character. Great post today!

  13. Dianne Thornton says

    February 1, 2016 at 6:32 pm

    Thanks, Tara … we need each other for encouragement! Thanks for yours!

  14. Jennifer says

    February 1, 2016 at 8:20 pm

    It was neat for me to read this followup, Dianne. 🙂 I love what you’ve shared here, and it brought to mind one of my very favorite verses from Proverbs: “A righteous (wo)man falls seven times and rises again.” Thank you for sharing about your “fall,” and about how God enabled you to rise again. I’m learning more and more that so much of the Christian life is about getting back up to try again after we stumble and fall. How good our God is to dust us off and send us back out to the race!

  15. Johanna says

    February 1, 2016 at 9:25 pm

    I absolutely loved what you said because it is so true! “That very night, God tested me on this. I didn’t ask Him to, but since I wrote about it, I guess He felt I needed to stay after for tutoring.” He does that a lot doesn’t He?! So thankful for you to share what the Lord did in your life to help others of us who are “going to school” right now as well.
    Many Blessings!

  16. Dianne Thornton says

    February 1, 2016 at 10:28 pm

    Me, too, Susan. Some of these lessons, though, are really tough!

  17. Dianne Thornton says

    February 1, 2016 at 10:29 pm

    Thanks for that precious encouragement, Jennifer. The reiteration of this is really in my head right now. I want to build a strong habit as a result!

  18. Dianne Thornton says

    February 1, 2016 at 10:30 pm

    I don’t know that we ever really graduate until we are with the Lord! So thankful for His grace.

  19. Marva | sunSPARKLEshine says

    Dianne, I wish I could say I passed every test that came my way but since we’re friends, I know I can trust you with the truth. 🙂 There are times I fail miserably. Just yesterday I was feeling overwhelmed with all that lay ahead of me as I prepared for a women’s bible study. I felt discouraged and faithless and upset that things seemed to be falling apart. Truth is, they simply weren’t going according to my plan. But thank God for His grace. It ended up being a refreshing time that I needed as much as the other women. God is so good!

  20. Mary Geisen says

    February 3, 2016 at 3:53 pm

    This is such a good reminder for me today. God is not asking me to seek extra credit by working harder and longer, instead he is asking me to just seek him. I hold on tight to my things and my schedule but God has disrupted it big time recently. I definitely need after school tutoring and then some. I’ll be thinking about your words for quite awhile and hopefully I will learn the lesson God is trying to teach me sooner rather than later.

  21. Ruthie Gray says

    February 3, 2016 at 6:32 pm

    Tweeted, pinned, sharing tomorrow, girl – this was GREAT!!! I loved the allegory of you waving that baton faster and faster as your day went spinning out of control! LOL (I never do that.)
    I remember especially dealing with this frustration when mom and dad’s health crises arose 6 years ago AND I was homeschooling two high schoolers. I had to be either in the hospital or doctors office nearly every day for 3 months and after that there were many, many follow ups!!! I learned then to say, “Not my plan, Lord, but Yours. Just like you said – pray, almost expecting He may have another plan.
    Not everything fits just so into our little box, does it?
    Praying for you, chic!! Please don’t hesitate to message me if you feel a need to share a burden or two, or a specific requests! 🙂

  22. Dianne Thornton says

    February 3, 2016 at 6:36 pm

    Thank you so much, Ruthie. I love you!!

  23. Dianne Thornton says

    February 3, 2016 at 6:38 pm

    Thanks so much for your own analogy. We’re not seeking extra credit! These are difficult lessons. And I think when we think we’ve got it down, God switches things up on us to see how we are *really* doing. Blessings to you, Mary!

  24. Dianne Thornton says

    February 3, 2016 at 6:39 pm

    I live that, Marva. So often, in my own experience, when things fall apart, God is bigger! And for me, I think He does that so I know it’s Him and not me!

  25. Betsy de Cruz says

    February 5, 2016 at 10:58 pm

    Love that prayer, Dianne: “Lord, order my steps the next few hours. You know what needs to happen today.” Oh yes, the best laid plans are often changed, and I’m not always so flexible and adaptable. Trying to grow here, friend!

  26. Jennifer | The Deliberate Mom says

    February 8, 2016 at 3:43 pm

    Beautiful post and reminder Dianne!

    I plan my days with the Lord every morning but yes, sometimes I have a fit when things don’t go as planned. Fortunately we’re learning and growing… and the Lord knows this and extends his never-ending grace to us.

    Thanks for sharing.
    xoxo

  27. Dianne Thornton says

    February 11, 2016 at 10:05 pm

    Oh, we’re growing together, Betsy! This is a tough one for me!

  28. Dianne Thornton says

    February 11, 2016 at 10:06 pm

    So thankful for that grace, too, Jennifer. Blessings to you!

This week in our small group study, I felt the Lord’s gentle chastisement. 

We looked at the promise in Luke 11:28, “He [Jesus] replied, ‘Blessed rather are those who hear the word of God and obey it.’”

At first glance, the promise of blessing comes from obedience. But it’s much more. 

In the preceding verses, Jesus had cast out a demon that caused a man to be mute. The crowd accused Him of casting out a demon with Satan’s power. 

Jesus explained how ridiculous it would be for Satan to drive out his own demons. Then a woman cries out, “Blessed is the mother who gave you birth and nursed you,” (v 27). 

This is the sticking point. Jesus was in the middle of an important discourse when this woman interrupts Him. He corrects her with this:

✨ Blessed are those who HEAR the word of God and obey it. 

That word HEAR means to LISTEN with FULL ATTENTION. 

✨ We cannot truly obey God if we don’t know what He’s saying to us. 

Basically, Jesus told this woman, and the others in the crowd, “Pay attention!! Don’t get distracted from my voice. I have important things to tell you. You won’t know what they are and what I want you to do, if all you’re thinking about is what you want to say or how you can gain attention. Put your attention on ME.”

It’s never fun to be Jesus’s object lesson. 

The questions I’m asking myself …

✨ What keeps me from spending time alone with Jesus?

✨ When I finally get alone with Him, what distracts me? 

✨ What keeps me from focusing on God’s Word? 

✨ What causes my kind to wander when I’m praying?

➡️ Eliminating distractions …
➡️ Exercising discipline …

… to bring every thought captive to the obedience of Christ (2 Corinthians 10:5) 

… brings true blessing.

I’m reading through Proverbs again, a habit my dad taught me when I was young. One Proverb a day each month. I’ve read through this book so many times, yet the Holy Spirit illumines new truth with each read. 

“The proverbs of Solomon son of David, king of Israel: for gaining wisdom and instruction; for understanding words of insight; for receiving instruction in prudent behavior, doing what is right and just and fair; for giving prudence to those who are simple, knowledge and discretion to the young.” (Proverbs 1:1–4, NIV)

➡️ Prudence in Hebrew means to “act with insight.” 

➡️ Additionally, in Proverbs 1:4, we learn that the simple person can gain prudence. 

➡️ Anyone who wants to, can become wise. 

➡️ But we must seek it. 

❓Have you ever read through Proverbs on a regular basis? 🙋‍♀️
❓Won’t you join me in reading a Proverb a day and gaining biblical wisdom? 🙋‍♀️

Something GOOD is coming in 🎄2023🎄⁠
⁠
Christmas Advent is probably my favorite time of the year. Yes, I do love the hustle and bustle to some extent. I am an avid chaser of Christmas light displays. And the music! Is there any music more glorious than that which proclaims our Savior’s birth? ⁠
⁠
But what I love most are the tender mornings I spend in God’s Word, reading through the Christmas story in an intentional manner. I have some favorite advent devotionals that I have enjoyed many times over. ⁠
⁠
But this year, my heart yearns for something different, and I’m not exactly sure what that is. I have a pretty good idea, though. ⁠
⁠
SO — I built a framework to journal through this advent season. The resulting content will be the foundation for what comes next year. ⁠
⁠
Because advent is so tender, I don’t think you can start writing about it in March, or even in January. You have to capture the anticipation in the moment. And that’s what I intend to do. ⁠
⁠
I will keep y’all posted as things move along!!! ⁠
⁠
(eeeek! I announced it — now I have to do it! Thankfully — FAITHFUL IS HE WHO CALLS US, WHO WILL ALSO DO IT! 2 Thess 5:24)⁠

It’s been about a week since we “fell back” to Standard Time. Many mourn the loss of daylight hours and post their frustration on social media. But I’m thinking about Christmas and how we celebrate light. In some ways, this frustration is a celebration. It reveals our deep need for light and how we suffer without it.⁠
⁠
It impacts all of us.⁠
⁠
I don’t think it’s an accident that we have this quiet desperation over encroaching darkness exactly when we do. Every day for the next 5 weeks, we will continue to lose bits of daylight. Around December 20-22, comes the Winter Solstice, the day with the least amount of sunlight. A few days later, in this darkness, we celebrate the Light of the World!⁠

It’s been a minute since I’ve posted here. But some things are just too good to keep to yourself!⁠
⁠
Recently my husband and I began leading a small group with our church. Because there is so much uncertainly in the world, he suggested we study how God keeps every promise He makes. It has been a source of encouragement for all of us. The great news is that no matter what is going on in our world, we can trust God because He keeps every promise He makes.⁠
⁠
For no matter how many promises God has made, they are “Yes” in Christ. And so through him the “Amen” is spoken by us to the glory of God. (2 Corinthians 1:20)⁠

The holidays are upon us! Soon we will celebrate Thanksgiving and immediately following, the Christmas rush begins. Children are easily caught up in the excitement of Christmas. For them, it’s almost magical. 

As we mature, however, childlike awe dissipates. “Adulting” replaces wonder. Pressure to find the right gift, decorate the tree just so, and prepare Pinterest-worthy meals can steal the true joy that Christmas brings. I've found that intentionally anticipating Christ's birth during the Christmas Advent season brings true joy.

✨I’ve curated a list of my favorite Advent devotionals and Bible studies. There is something for everyone! ✨

✨ How do YOU like to celebrate Christmas Advent? ✨

THERE IS NOTHING QUITE LIKE THE FEELING OF LOSING YOUR FOOTING.⁠
⁠
I should know. I’m an expert at the slip-and-fall. In the rain with flip flops that have lost their tread. On frozen snow in hiking boots that are supposed to have grip. Even in my kitchen when I’m wearing my slippers. (Why are they called that???) Then there was that time I trekked out across some sand to grab a bucket and ended up knee deep in drilling mud.⁠
⁠
In those times we are NOT in control, and we know it. We take a few steps, falter, and realize we are going down. ⁠
⁠
Suffering can be like that—but there is no humor in it.⁠
⁠
We all walk through suffering. Sometimes it feels so dark and deep we can’t see what’s ahead. ⁠
⁠
🎵I waited patiently for the Lord; he turned to me and heard my cry. He lifted me out of the slimy pit, out of the mud and mire; he set my feet on a rock and gave me a firm place to stand. (Ps 40:1-2)⁠
⁠
Our road seems slippery, and we may feel we have no hope. But God is near, and He hears our cries. As we draw near to Him, He gives us a new perspective and firm footing. He also gives us a song of joy amid our suffering.⁠
⁠
🎵 He put a new song in my mouth, a hymn of praise to our God. Many will see and fear the Lord and put their trust in him. (Ps 40:3)⁠
⁠
This song of praise is for the express purpose of encouraging others who are suffering so they too can draw near to the Lord and experience His peace and the abundant life He came to give. ⁠
⁠
This is how a watching world comes to know God. They see our suffering. But they also see a heart that trusts God during it. A heart that is not bitter, but one that sings for joy. ⁠
⁠
Do you know a fellow sufferer who willingly shares their song of joy? How has their example encouraged you?⁠

AS HIS FAITHFUL SERVANT, GOD HAS **SET YOU APART** ➡️ FOR HIMSELF!!⁠
⁠
Wow. That's powerful. ⁠
⁠
Do you have something very special that you keep in a special place -- just for you? (I'm not talking about hiding those special cookies. 😉😂)⁠
⁠
I love coffee mugs. But certain mugs are different than the others. One was a gift from a special friend. One looks a lot like one my grandfather let me drink from when I visited my grandparents. One is from Disney, and I don't let ANYONE use that one! ⁠
⁠
Yes, these are "just things." But they are special to me, and anytime I pull one of these mugs out of the cabinet, I remember why it's special. Why it's different from the mugs that match my dishes.⁠
⁠
In the Old Testament, “set apart” means to be ...⁠
⁠
=> distinctly different.<= ⁠
⁠
You are God’s faithful servant. He made you distinctly different from everyone else—for His purposes. God’s purposes for you are distinctly different from anyone else’s. ⁠
⁠
In the New Testament when we read the words “set apart,” they have the added meaning of being sanctified, or holy.⁠
⁠
God created you => to be holy for holy purposes. <=⁠
⁠
One such purpose is to be a messenger of the gospel of peace (Ephesians 6:15)--showing others how they can be reconciled to God. What a privilege we have to be His messengers!⁠
⁠
My prayer for you is the same as that of Paul's at the close of his letter to the Ephesian church: ⁠
⁠
Whenever you speak [or write], may God give you words so you will fearlessly make known the mystery of the gospel and that you may declare it fearlessly, as you should. (Ephesians 6:19-20)⁠
⁠
Be blessed today as you proclaim the gospel of peace to a world that is crying out for it!!⁠
⁠
-----------⁠
✨ What other holy purposes has God called you to?⁠

PSALM 15 IS SHORT, YET JAM-PACKED WITH GOODNESS.⁠ ⁠⁠
Tough goodness, but goodness all the same. I had to include all of it in my images. Scroll through the pages so you don't miss any of it.⁠⁠
⁠⁠
When I journaled through this Psalm, I was knee-deep in the edits for my Bible study, STANDING FIRM IN CHRIST: Biblical Principles for Fighting Spiritual Battles. Edits from my awesome editor and edits from my sweet friends who wanted this Bible study to be its best.⁠⁠
⁠⁠
Let me tell you, allowing trusted friends inside your writing world is scary! It's a good thing, but it can also sting. As I read through the psalmist's words, God brought a principle to my mind. You know the one--what's in our hearts shows up in our words (and even our thoughts!!).⁠⁠
⁠⁠
Psalm 15, explains that the *blameless person* enjoys a close relationship with God, and describes this person in detail. ⁠⁠
⁠⁠
This person SPEAKS TRUTH FROM THE HEART. In other words, it's not just the words this person speaks, but the response to difficult words! I wrote the following in my journal:⁠⁠
⁠⁠
"A blameless person's speech is wholesome. She doesn't just not curse--she encourages. AND she accepts criticism without being critical."⁠⁠
⁠⁠
Wow. That can be hard to do. Receiving edits can be a challenge. But what about when someone who cares about you confronts you (in love) about a difficult life issue? ⁠⁠
⁠⁠
How we respond to criticism is a test of what's really in our hearts.⁠⁠
⁠⁠
When our hearts are tender and match up with God's truth, our lives are built on a firm foundation that will never be shaken.⁠⁠
⁠⁠
✨ What other truths can we remember to keep our hearts tender instead of tough and critical?⁠⁠

OUR THOUGHTS OF GOD ARE NOT GREAT ENOUGH. -- J. I. Packer⁠
⁠
The Scripture focus for Chapter 3 of ENJOYING INTIMACY WITH GOD, is Isaiah 40, which holds many favorite passages, including:⁠
⁠
"But those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint." (Isaiah 40:31, NIV)⁠
⁠
Isaiah 40 is lengthy, but oh, so beautiful. It was written to encourage Israel after her discipline (captivity in Babylon) was completed. God wanted them to know that He was fully worthy of their trust. ⁠
⁠
It is an interesting contrast. It describes man’s utter weakness—and God’s transcendence. But this God who is so other than anything we know, LOVES **US**. The God who made the universe, who holds the oceans in His hands, who never grows weary—is our friend. ⁠
⁠
Sanders shares the first verse from “How Great Thou Art.” It is fitting. ⁠
⁠
O Lord, my God, when I in awesome wonder⁠
Consider all the worlds Thy Hands have made⁠
I see the stars, I hear the rolling thunder⁠
Thy power throughout the universe displayed.⁠
⁠
In what ways, as you move forward to serve our King, do you need to fully depend on God? ⁠
⁠
I've been on somewhat of a social media hiatus--working tirelessly with my husband on some much needed household repairs/updates. Finding my way and rhythm back into this special world is a bit overwhelming!⁠
⁠
Let's remember, God goes before us and strengthens us for all He calls us to do.⁠

HOLY FATHER, GIVE ME GREAT LOVE FOR YOUR WORD AND THE TRUTH IN IT.⁠
⁠
May the Holy Spirit illumine truth as I read its pages. Teach me to use your Sword as my weapon against Satan.⁠
⁠
Help me to study it well, hiding its treasures in my heart.⁠
⁠
Bring to mind truth from Your Word for my needs today. ⁠
⁠
In Jesus's Name,⁠
Amen!⁠
⁠
----⁠
⁠
Collecting Scriptures as we read God's Word can be a great help for when we face temptation. Writing them in a journal on an index card or a sticky note keeps them "at the ready" for when we need them.⁠
⁠
If you struggle with memorizing Scripture, I have a resource to help you hide God's Word in your heart:⁠
⁠
The PSALMS Meditation Method is a set of worksheets that guides your meditation process so that you know a verse thoroughly, even though you may not have "memorized" it.⁠
⁠
You can find it in my SHOP under "Bible Study Helps." (See the Instagram links in my bio.)⁠

In essence, I choose to worship YOU rather than anything else.⁠ (Philippians 4:8-9)⁠

DO YOU CARE FOR LITTLE ONES OR AGED ONES?⁠
⁠
Do you teach students?⁠
Do you move within the corporate world?⁠
⁠
Are you walking through a valley of suffering?⁠
⁠
What task has God given you in your arena of ministry? ⁠
⁠
It doesn’t matter what it is, God wants us to give ourselves *fully* to the work He assigns us. ⁠
⁠
And here’s the “why.”⁠
⁠
“Therefore, my dear brothers and sisters, stand firm. Let nothing move you. Always give yourselves fully to the work of the Lord, because you know that your labor in the Lord is not in vain.” (1 Corinthians 15:58-59 NIV)⁠
⁠
Our labor is in not in vain! Because, as the verses prior to these say, Jesus has conquered the sting of death. Through Him we have victory. ⁠
⁠
Everything we do can point to Jesus so He receives glory in all our tasks. ⁠
⁠
So if you’re feeling discouraged today, take heart. Victory is yours. God will use your efforts for His kingdom.  He loves you so. ⁠
⁠
What work has God given you today? ⁠
⁠
Double tap if you agree!⁠

HOW TO CULTIVATE AN ATTITUDE OF THANKSGIVING ALL YEAR ROUND.⁠
⁠
If you're like me, your mind is spinning with all the craziness of this week. You might even be a bit afraid of what the future holds. I know that I am doing a good amount of "instructing my heart" to trust the Lord. ⁠
⁠
The best cure of worry and fear is a shift in focus -- from our circumstances to the One who controls them. With Thanksgiving approaching, this shift can include listing all the the wonderful ways God has cared for us in the past -- which builds our trust that He will continue to care for us in the coming days. ⁠
⁠
Would you join me in focusing on the wonderful deeds of the Lord as Thanksgiving approaches? ⁠
⁠
This 5-Day Mini Bible Study is a special Thanksgiving treat that will help you cultivate an attitude of thanksgiving (and trust) all year long.⁠ ⁠
⁠
🦃 Get your copy from the Instagram link in my profile. 🦃⁠
⁠
⁠Psalm 77:11-12 “I will remember the deeds of the LORD; yes, I will remember your miracles of long ago. I will consider all your works and meditate on all your mighty deeds.”

ISN'T IT JUST LIKE GOD TO USE SMALL THINGS TO ACCOMPLISH BIG THINGS?⁠
⁠
Psalm 8:2 “Through the praise of children and infants you have established a stronghold against your enemies, to silence the foe and the avenger.”⁠
⁠⁠
The NIV Application Commentary says, “The recognition of one’s own weakness is the starting point for recognizing dependence on the strength of God.”⁠
⁠
Do you feel small in your efforts to serve God and others?⁠
⁠
That’s okay!! ⁠
⁠
God takes our meager offering and multiplies it to accomplish His purposes—not only in our lives, but in the world!!⁠
⁠
What are some small efforts that make a big difference?⁠

HOW MANY TIMES HAVE YOU READ 1 CORINTHIANS 10:13?⁠
⁠
I've read it many times, but something new popped out to me.⁠
⁠
“No temptation has overtaken you except what is common to mankind. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can endure it.” (1 Corinthians 10:13, NIV)⁠
⁠
It’s that last phrase … SO YOU CAN ENDURE IT.⁠
⁠
Prior to the other day, whenever I thought about this verse, I thought about temptation LEAVING once I ESCAPED, by being obedient to take God’s way out.⁠
⁠
But that’s not what the last phrase indicates. It says that we can ENDURE TEMPTATION. ⁠
⁠
If you're like me, this offers great hope. Sometimes temptation sticks around. It doesn't just go away. That’s why it’s so important to wear the Helmet of Salvation and protect our minds with the Truth from God’s Word. ⁠
⁠
Whatever temptation you are facing, God’s “way out” will help you ENDURE your temptation, especially if it is a lingering one. ⁠
⁠
He is present—you don’t face it alone. He strengthens you each step of the way until you are clear of it.⁠
