Episode 159 - One Message, Two Responses

Welcome to Daily Growth Point, I’m Pastor John Bingham.If you take a bag of carrots and a half dozen eggs and put them together into a pot of boiling water, they have opposite reactions. The carrots will become soft and tender, while the eggs will harden. The same is true of the response to fire with wax and clay. The difference is not found in the medium of the testing, but in the nature of the material. So it is with our hearts.Some people endure great hardship and suffering in their lives, but their faith is made stronger and their spirit sweeter. Others endure very similar circumstances but become angry and bitter at God for allowing bad things to happen to them. The difference is determiend by the condition of our hearts.Keep your heart soft toward the things of God, and you will respond to the events of life properly.
