Therefore, my dear brothers, stand firm. Let nothing move you. (1 Corinthians 15:58)There is no need for us to chase after miracles, but if we need a miracle, God specializes in miracles. The greatest miracle God can do in our lives is to give us peace, whatever the circumstances may be. A Chinese proverb says, "A crisis reveals our character." How do we react in terms of crisis? Do we get confused, angry, disappointed - in God and men? Or do we trust God - who is still in control? Our spiritual character must be built before we enter a crisis so that in the midst of the trouble we can draw from our spiritual knowledge and experience.
glory of friend
Friendship is the comfort, the inexpressible comfort of feeling safe with a person having neither to weigh thoughts or measure words, but pouring all right out just as they are, chaff and grain together, certain that a faithful friendly hand will take and sift them, keep what is worth keeping and, with a breath of comfort, blow the rest away. -- Dinah Mulock Craik
