1 Thessalonians 3
This is the glory of Christ that we are not shaken when we or our loved ones are afflicted. It brings great honor to Him that we remain steadfast in the midst of affliction. It demonstrates His great power in all things and situations. He is able to make it well with our souls. In the midst of affliction He is able to pour out abundantly upon us His love, because He is abundant love. That love is able to flow fully, if we allow it, even to those who afflict us. His power is able to establish our hearts. His love and power are a bedrock upon which we can build our lives. When we let Him establish our foundation in His bedrock, no flood of affliction is able to undermine our lives. The result is a holy conduct in our lives in the midst of adversity that honors Him. Indeed we serve a glorious King! Speak His glory to someone today!
