Job’s “fiery trials” helped guide him right into the outstretched arms of his Redeemer.
Have you ever considered why bad things happen to good people? If you haven’t had this question at least once in your life, then it may be time to consider it - and it can give you a chance to learn more about a loving and kind Father in Heaven.
Whoever wrote the book of Job used a little bit of creative and poetic license, but his life is a lesson for us on how to turn the trials of our lives into triumphs.

Even though there is not one reference to God in the book of Esther, His hand of divine design is all thought it.
Esther’s courage makes this one of the most well-known biblical stories. What an example of faith, courage, and willingness to step out of comfort zones!
While the rest of the kingdom bowed to Haman, Mordecai had the courage to refuse which set up another great act of courage. Probably a lesson there for us.
In a book devoted to the courage of Esther (and rightfully so!), we often forget about another courageous queen who paved the way for others to be courageous.
One of the covenants that we make is to stand as a witness of God wherever we are. Yeah, that can be really hard and require us to step out of our comfort zone…but that can also be where the magic happens.
Satan will always try and thwart your efforts to rebuild after disastrous choices and situations. Be like Nehemiah and “answer them after the same manner” each time. You are doing a great work! Stay firm and don’t come down! If you’d like to view the video that goes with this podcast, click here
