Genesis 39:1-23

Have you ever asked God to put you through hardship, pain, and struggle, so that He can build you up? Of course not! Who would ever ask to be put through pain in life? However, if you’re a runner or an athlete, you put yourself through pain as you train to be your best. God wants you to be the best disciple you can be. In today’s message, Pastor Mark will remind you to look at the difficult times in your life in a new light. Remember that God wants to refine you in the fire so that you come out pure. The fire won’t feel good at all, but God’s goal is to make you more like Jesus. Pain isn’t God punishing you; it’s Him making you better.
