Afflictions

Hello Everyone,


I have as most of you always thought of hurricanes as something we could do without. But recently I learned that they are necessary to maintain a balance in nature. These tropical storms, with winds up to 150 miles an hour and accompanied by torrential rains, lightning, and rumbling thunder, can be devastating. Yet scientists tell us now that they are tremendously valuable. They dissipate a large percentage of the oppressive heat which builds up at the equator, and they are indirectly responsible for much of the rainfall in North and South America. Meteorologists are now convinced that hurricanes actually do more good than harm. Hey, that is the same with God's Word. The Bible teaches us that the afflictions of God's people are like that. Though they bring temporary pain and grief, they can produce eternal dividends.

"For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, worketh for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory;" 2 Corinthians 4:17

Remember Always, "God does all things well."

Until Jesus Comes

Proverbs 3:5,6
