DISCOMFORT - We will be STRETCHED
Hebrews 12:11-12 (TPT) "Now all discipline seems to be painful at the time, yet later it will produce a transformation of character, bringing a harvest of righteousness and peace to those who yield to it. So be made strong even in your weakness by lifting up your tired hands in prayer and worship. And strengthen your weak knees."
2 Corinthians 12:9-10 (TPT) "But he answered me, My grace is always more than enough for you, and my power finds its full expression through your weakness. So I will celebrate my weaknesses, for when I'm weak I sense more deeply the mighty power of Christ living in me. So I'm not defeated by my weakness, but delighted! For when I feel my weakness and endure mistreatment - when I'm surrounded with troubles on every side and face persecution because of my love for Christ - I am made yet stronger. For my weakness becomes a portal to God's power."
Life as a follower of Jesus is a journey through terrains of both comfort and discomfort. It is in the uncomfortable spaces where we often find ourselves being stretched and tested. God's calling on our lives rarely leads us down easy paths, but instead, it pushes us beyond our limits, refining us into vessels for His divine purpose. In discomfort, we learn to embrace growth through the challenges it presents. Discomfort is a sign that we are growing and being refined for God's purpose. It stretches us spiritually, helping us mature in faith, building perseverance and resilience.
In these challenging moments, we may feel weak and inadequate, but it is precisely in these times that God's grace abounds, lifting us up and providing the strength we need. We lean on His grace, trusting that His power is made perfect in our weaknesses. We learn to embrace the unknown and trusting God's plan for our lives. It is about holding on to faith, even when circumstances are uncertain. Let us remember that God is with us.
May we find joy in the discomfort, knowing that God is shaping us for His glory!
May the Shalom of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you now and always!!!
