But Jesus made you for more!

Satan, can lead our minds to believe a blessing is more. He can feed us lies and show us how a blessing is just a really big burden.

The Bible Tells Us Differently

01 God cares for us even during the trials (1 Peter 5:7) 02 God cares for us even during the trials (1 Peter 5:7) 03 God is the source of strength. (Isaiah 40:31) 04 God's joy transcends over every circumstance. (John 15:11) 05 God is with us. We are never alone (Isaiah 41:10) Yellow Bridge Dumbbells Fish Alarm Clock Train Tracks

God shapes us through trials and circumstances.

Too often, we do not understand inwardly the outward appearance of our purpose. There is a side we miss when we are weathering through a storm.

What we assume

We just assume we are doing this thing called life, by ourselves, and only through our control will it get taken care of.

Our reality check

If we want to be used by God, we must go through trials. Read Devotion

Colossians 1:17 says;

“He is before all things, and in Him, all things are held together.” – Colossians 1:17

We are covered

God is not only is He our Creator, but He is also our Sustainer. We are not left independent to figure out what is best. We are covered by the blood of Christ (Romans 5:8).
