How blessed is the man who does not walk in the counsel of the wicked, nor stand in the path of sinners, nor sit in the seat of scoffers! But his delight is in the law of the LORD, and in His law he meditates day and night. He will be like a tree firmly planted by streams of water, which yields its fruit in its season, and its leaf does not wither, and in whatever he does, he prospers. Psalms 1:1-3 

The Word of God bears truth to the fact that God constantly moves in our lives and takes every experience to elevate us. No matter how bad a situation appears God has the power to take our experiences and turn them around for us to reach higher in every area of our life, “they meant it for evil but God turned it around for my good.” I have learned that every tactic used to test my faith was turned into a situation that elevated me higher and I don’t necessarily mean in tangible ways, but in wisdom, knowledge, and a closer relationship with Christ. Trials ultimately demonstrate God’s power, character, and awesomeness. We learn in these times to trust God and let go of self. Life is a process we can’t get around it there are no quick fixes. Character, integrity, and most of all a personal relationship with God takes time and experiences, and the most difficult experiences teach us the most valuable lessons. Stay firmly rooted in your relationship with Christ and watch how he moves in your life. He will take you to places you never imagined, it’s a promise.
