A Brand New Year

With the holidays behind us and a fresh new year ahead, we are seeking God's guidance and wisdom in the days ahead.

While reading a devotional recently, I came across this thought and have been pondering it, a lot!!!

God in His mercy brings us comfort in our trials, not always to remove our struggles but rather to give us strength through the trial...His idea is that if we accept and receive His comfort, we will then be able to offer His comfort to others and become comforters. Nothing is wasted with God. He can and will use everything in our lives to accomplish His good and perfect will.
