Have you ever been through a trial that brought you face to face with the truth that you have NO control over your situation - whether that be health issues, relationship issues, or other issues? If you have ever experienced the extremity of knowing your own helplessness to change, manipulate, or otherwise exert control over your situation, then you might have had the privilege to have deep knowledge of what it means in scripture that when we are weak, then He is strong. It is a very humbling place to be. In today’s episode, we would like to share encouragement with you that when the trials come, God is still Good and we can continue to trust in His goodness - even when the end of the trial is not obviously near.

Bible verse: Romans 5:3-5 Not only that, but we rejoice in our sufferings, knowing that suffering produces endurance, 4 and endurance produces character, and character produces hope, 5 and hope does not put us to shame, because God's love has been poured into our hearts through the Holy Spirit who has been given to us.
