How will He make good from any problem? I don't know, but He promises He will. He whispers gently, "If faith is not tried, is it faith?"
I get His point. It's easy to have faith which takes no effort, but is no-effort-confidence truly faith?
"In this world you will have trouble," Jesus said, but each trial strengthens my faith.
Make it so, Lord.

He will.
He is always there....and we see His footprints on the sand, and when at times we don't see His footprints it is then that He carried us....I lean on this promise always.
Tami,
I don't know if it is "coinkidink" or not, but Debbie at Heart Choice wrote on the very same verse this morning.
There is always plently of tough stuff to go around, ins't there? Rats!
No wonder Jesus said, "Fear Not" - he knew we would need the reminder. God bless you - Marsha
Sorry for the rough day, hope that this verse gives you comfort, "Consider it pure joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance. Let perseverance finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything." Jame 1:2-4
Take heart - it's hard to accept, but everything you said is true. Take a moment to read 2 Cor. 4:16-18, and really let it soak in.
((hugs)) and prayers.

Amen Tami...
"If faith is not tried, is it faith?"
