As God continually saves us daily through the power of the hOly Spirit presnet in our lives, we wonder at times why dark days come. God's word assures us that the trials and tribulation are to cause us to be dependant on his soverign power, developed by is word and disciplined in our obedience to him. God is trully in the buisness of upgrading his people and the least we can do after we have eaten and are satisfied is bless the lord for the upgrade he has brought about in the chruch and in our individual lives.
