Responding in Faith to Life's Troubles

Jesus said we'd have troubles, but He also gave us a promise:

"In the world ye have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world." John 16:33

Let us allow ourselves to be continually transformed so that we more quickly remember all the time that, "all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose." Romans 8:28

So what the world without faith can only see as PROBLEMS we can know are really CHALLENGES, and these challenges are in turn actually OPPORTUNITIES -- OPPORTUNITIES to grow closer to Him while growing in grace and faith, and while communing with Him and working alongside Him, and witnessing His work. Believers have rest. We are here, but also in Heaven. Praise God!
