TIRED OF WINNING YET?

This absurd process Kavanaugh has gone through has been a lesson for all who put their faith in Christ Jesus,
a lesson in stress. Peter wrote about it in 1 Peter 1:7, for it is a way our Lord strengthens us.

That the genuineness of your faith, being much more precious than gold that perishes,
though it is tested by fire, may be found to praise, honor, and glory at the revelation of Jesus Christ,

God uses stress to strengthen our faith. tells us: “These [trials] have come so that
your faith—of greater worth than gold, which perishes even though refined by fire—may
be proved genuine and may result in praise, glory and honor when Jesus Christ is revealed.”

There is only one way a muscle grows, and that is through stress. A muscle that is rarely exercised
atrophies. without exercise it shrinks into uselessness. A muscle seldom stretched beyond its usual
limits can only maintain itself. It cannot grow. To grow, a muscle must be taxed. Unusual
demands must be placed upon it. Stress is a demand placed upon our faith. Without it our
faith will not, cannot, grow.

Ever seen grass grow through asphalt? It’s amazing if you think about it. How does
grass, pressed flat and robbed of light, persevere and break through hard ground? Yet
we’ve seen it. Somehow God made those tiny blades of grass to rise to the greatest challenge.

In the crucible of stress, as we draw on our resources in Christ, He gives us faith and
strength to crack through and rise above the asphalt coat of life under the curse.

Amen.

Amen!.....a heartfelt Amen!.....Beautiful perfect prayer!

[Freee-dame]

Amen . This is the best picture I have seen so far of Kavanaugh’s swearing g in. His wife is looking at him full of love. Younger daughter is happy. Only older daughter has a pained expression.

If the evil leftists cannot win outright, they will deprive us of our rightful celebrations. Examples are available he huge protests of the inaugurations in 2001, 2005 and 2017. I attended both of Bush 2’s but was scared off from Trump’s. If he wins in 2021 and I am still mobile enough, I will go.

Absolutely amen. We also ask You, Sir, to make us One Nation, under God, INDIVISIBLE with liberty and justice for all.
