Tests of Faith

I am not saying that God would not change the circumstances. Certainly, He can and often does. But most of the time, I am tested in the area where I am the weakest.

You have probably fund something similar to be true. If you have problem with jealousy, it seems as though everybody you meet has more or better material possessions than you do. You notice that your best friend wears a brand new outfit every time you turn around. The person you work next to, who makes half as much as you do, comes firing up in a brand new car.

This is a test of your faith. That is God bringing to light impurities in your character. That is God trying to refine you. If you will learn to work with God and let go of that jealousy, you will be amazed at the blessings and favor and victory that will come into your life.

I am much focused and goal oriented person. When I have project to do, I like to get it done right then and there. I have been that way my whole life. When I go to restaurant, I order before they even give me a menu.

God will use people in your life. God uses to reveal area where you need to change.

Have you considered that God may want to change you? God may have purposely arranged for you to be in close proximity to that person who grates against you. He may be trying to reach you how to love your enemies. He may be trying to toughen y9u up a little and teach you to have some endurance, to not run from everything that is hard, uncomfortable or inconvenient.

God, why did You put me with this woman? She cannot do anything right. She cannot even cook. She burns the toast. She cannot make a meat loaf. God, when are going to change her?

She is probably gong to continue to cook just like that until you learn how to get over it, have a better attitude and start appreciating the fact that at least she is trying to do something for you.
