Can you think of a time that was a difficult trial or season in your life, and think of that outcome. Was the peace only for a moment or did it endure?
Can you think of a time when you were faced with a difficult situation, what was the outcome. Think on this tho, did you get a moment of peace or was it something even to this day that gives you a peace and allows you to gain strength ?

Remember no trial that we face, are we the first to face it.
our trials and formed us and shaped us into what we are today. But we must understand, we are not finished. There are more to go, that’s not a bad thing, it just means that God is not finished forming us for whatever purpose He has in us for the Kingdom.
Prayer
Bless us Lord as we face the trials of everyday life, of the COVID virus, but we know that we are in your hands. Give us the strength, will, and direction to do accordingly to your plan. May we understand that this will make us stronger today for what will present itself in the future. Let anxiety and fear be ridden from our lives, and peace and tranquility take its place. We stand firm in you name, in your love, in your way. Amen
Trials are not meant to break us, but to build us so that we may hold the blessings from God in our hearts day in and day out and unto eternity.
