Refined Through the PainНамуна

The Invitation

A beautiful oxymoron so precise

In its process and care

Of His hands present all throughout

Calling you by name

To know no other helper but Him.

A bittersweet journey. A blissful mess. A delicate story.

Have you ever found yourself in a difficult situation and wondered, "What is even going on?" Or "For how long must I stay here?"

It's natural to have these thoughts, but it's important to acknowledge that the challenges we face in life are not meant to harm us. Instead, they are supposed to shape us into the person we were created to be and to reflect God's glory.

If you're feeling lost and unsure of how to proceed, know that seeking guidance from God and understanding the refining process will help you find peace and strength to move through and beyond the pain.

Even if things don't make sense right now, this devotional plan will help you rediscover comfort, the purpose of pressure, and what true rest looks like, in the in-between.

Over the next few days, we'll uncover how God can use even the tough seasons as a way to bring us back to the heart of the Father.

My prayer over you:

Oh Lord, I thank You for the person reading this plan. As they embark on this journey with You, may they feel strengthened. May they know that You love them and You are with them, even in this. For Your plans are good, even when they don't feel good. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.

Reflection:

How is your view of God impacted when you experience tough seasons?
