WHAT'S TROUBLE DOING FOR YOU?
Today's reading:  2 Chronicles 25-28

"And when trouble came to King Ahaz, he became even more unfaithful to the Lord."  2 Chronicles 28:22 NLT

What's trouble doing for you?

These tough times you're walking in--are they strengthening your relationship with God?  Or has He been placed on a back burner until things calm down, straighten out or get back to normal?

This trying situation you're in, regardless of whether it was by your own choice or by default,-- is it taking you to new heights in your walk with God?  Or are you just too busy for Him, for church, for service?

This disease, diagnosis or doubt--is it allowing you to get a fresher, clearer, more intimate glimpse of your Creator?  Are you seeing Him with new eyes?  Are you finding Him to be all you need?  Are you discovering that it's worth each and every step because it's drawing you closer to Him?

This trial--is it changing the language you use?  Your conversations?  Are people hearing you continue to praise God or are they worn down as you list off complaint after complaint? 

What are your troubles doing for you?  What are your troubles doing for your witness?
