Because Peace Is A Fruit Of The

God's Grace Is Not Given To Make Us Feel Better, But To Glorify Him... Good Feelings May Come, Or They May Not, But That Is Not The Issue. The Issue Is Whether Or Not We Honor God By The Way We Respond To Our Circumstances.

Instead Of Living In The Sunshine Of God's Forgiveness Through Christ, We Tend To Live Under An Overcast Sky Of Guilt Most Of The Time.

The Person Who Is Living By Grace Sees This Vast Contrast Between His Own Sins Against God And The Offenses Of Others Against Him. He Forgives Others Because He Himself Has Been So Graciously Forgiven. He Realizes That, By Receiving God’s Forgiveness Through Christ, He Has Forfeited The Right To Be Offended When Others Hurt Him.

If We Are Going To Learn To Trust God In Adversity, We Must Believe God Will Allow Nothing To Subvert His Glory So He Will Allow Nothing To Spoil The Good He Is Working Out In Us And For Us.

God Never Allows Pain Without A Purpose.
