Day 88 of 365
Tested and Refined
1 Peter 1:6-7
1 Peter 1:6-7
“In all this you greatly rejoice, though now for a little while you may have had to suffer grief in all kinds of trials. These have come so that the proven genuineness of your faith—of greater worth than gold, which perishes even though refined by fire—may result in praise, glory and honor when Jesus Christ is revealed.”
Insight
Trials aren't fun, but they're purposeful. God uses them to test and refine your faith like gold in fire. Untested faith is immature faith. When trials come, they reveal what you really believe. Will you trust God when it costs you? Will you worship in the storm? Will you obey when it's hard? Pass the test, and you emerge stronger, more mature, more like Jesus.
Reflection
What trial are you in right now? How might God be using it to refine your faith? What's He teaching you through it?
