44 ~ How God Uses Adversity to Bring About Change

If our God abounds in love and grace, then why is life such a struggle at times? Why do we have problems in our marriages, with our finances, or with illness in our family?   Why can’t being a believer in a mighty sovereign God mean that our life is easy and peaceful. What is the purpose and how do we navigate these adversities?   We’re going to take a look at all of this today in an effort to understand why God not only allows, but sometimes plans, the difficulties and challenges in our lives.   Let’s get started.   Scripture References 1 Peter 1:6-7 James 1:2-4 Psalms 119:71 Jeremiah 29:11 Psalms 139:23-24 1 Peter 5:10-11     Review & Follow ~ Please consider taking a moment to leave a review.
