—2 Corinthians 4:8-18
by: Trisha Gerstel.
Each of us faces our own afflictions, be they emotional struggles, health troubles, addictions, or financial stressors. No matter the nature of our troubles, they all provide the same opportunity. Whenever we are afflicted, we have a chance to focus on God as we turn to Him in prayer, asking for His wisdom, strength, comfort, and peace. When we do this, we find ourselves renewed by the Spirit. Take time today to meditate on the ways in which God has brought about daily renewal in your heart. Then say a prayer of thanks.
