Trials...Why We Have Them

FRF Web • October 19, 2020

All Things Have A Purpose

Greetings brothers and sisters,

        As promised we have begun back into the realm of regular updates, including recording our meeting time on Saturdays.  Pastor Scott has graciously reminded us why we have trials in our lives, better yet, God has given His revelation to James, who wrote it down for us.  However, even knowing the very purpose of what a trial is used for in our lives, we often scratch our heads and have this inner desire to ask God why...seems only natural doesn't it?  There is a caveat to asking why though, do we ask why in desperation and desire to be free?  Or do we ask why in the manner of "what does God want me to learn through this trial and ordeal"?

What about the command to consider it joy when we go through trials and ordeals? Well, Pastor Scott very soundly teaches us what this means, and how it is not only for our good, but to bring Glory to God.  Please take some time and watch this weeks video on this very teaching, and contact us for more questions, to any of what we are here and called to do in our humble service to our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.  It is a blessing to us that we can share worship and a meal with everyone each week, and we long to continue.  Until we meet next, may God bless you with a close relationship with Himself.
