yeah, he was probably excited being in that cold cell, he was on a mission from God, he was the one God picked to throw in that cell, and can you imagine the preaching he did in jail?
at the end, he was probably excited, like he was getting ready; for a trip. yay!!

Thank you Elmer. Yes it is good to be reminded of the fact that the best is yet to come. Trials we meet here is an invitation to come closer to God and trust in the everlasting love that Jesus showed us. A blessed day to you!

My faith has been tested sooo much over the last year or so, but I know that the only reason I have made it this far is because God has brought me here. I may not like where things are right now in my life, but I know that God has a plan for me. Thank you for your ministry, it has helped so much!

This was short and to the point, I am going thru the most difficult time in my life and it reminds me that God is faithful and to keep my faith in HIM alone..this will bring glory to God..He is my loving father, sometimes I forget He still cares when all else is failing.

Beautifully said, and it touched my heart. Sometimes I feel like I am wearing his trials, and when I have decided to call it quits, Jehovah gives me a turn to joy moment. Beautifully said, I am crying. Thank You!

So many people are facing trials in there life more so today than ever before; people out of work, loosing their jobs and homes that they would raise their families in, terrible storms that are just taking everything that they’ve ever had. And yet Paul faced more than any of us ever did and he still stood strong and faced all.
We can learn from the faith that he had in the Lord and apply it to our own daily lives.
Always remember, there is always going to be someone out there worse off than you. So lend a hand and keep the faith!!

Recently I was thrown in jail, briefly, all be it, however, thrown in jail- my crime? Extending love and forgiveness to my stray husband- even after the unthinkable things he had done. I thought of Paul at this time…didn’t pray for me- don’t get me wrong, lol- I was not happy to be there- I was balling- Heaven forbid anyone see my mug shot!! Yikes, I was a mess- however, I chose to pray for my husband first- I knew, even sitting behind bars, on concrete, next to a pathetically disenamelled toilet :(, I was still in a better place than he was at the moment- in God’s hands…yes, this is still before the courts, yet I see God’s hand in it already- months later, on top of agonizing months prior when all the trouble started, my prayer is still first with my husband…I am still choosing to keep the faith, even in this- I am not worried for me- Jesus has already prepared a place….please, join me in continued prayer for my husband…love you ‘Bob’….’come home’ xoxoxoxoxox.
