Consider it pure joy…
Being a servant of Christ is not easy.
There’s a lot of persecution, frustration, and temptation but the Scripture
says “Consider it pure joy my brothers, whenever you face trials of many
kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith develops perseverance”
(James 1:2-3NIV). These words give strength to people who face a lot of
trials -- this is what the believers in the small village we are reaching out
are going through. Sometimes in our Bible studies, they just smile at us and give
no answer to the questions we ask about the Bible stories. Their smiles seemed
to hide the pain from the trials they are going through. My team continues to
encourage them with scriptures and remind them of God’s goodness and
faithfulness. Let’s Keep Advancing for the Kingdom! Glory and Honor belong to our God!
-David Jude 20- Samar-Leyte
