Episode 4: Testing Time

Do you praise God when you’re unemployed and the bills are due next week? How about when the doctor comes in with disappointing news or when your child has gone astray? Have you sung the praises of God as the bank is about to foreclose on your home? Can you praise God when all hope is gone? God never said life would always be easy. Oh, no it’s quite the opposite! He says we will experience tests in our lives. This year alone, I’m sure most of us (if not all) have gone through tests. You may not be able to see the end of the tunnel, just yet. But worship and praise God in advance, even when it’s tough! Even when all hope is gone, there’s still hope in God! Praise him for ALL things! God’s Word is the best medicine to withstand the test of time. James 1: 3-4 “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.”
