When we go through difficulties, it is easy to think God why only me. However, we should look at our challenges and trials as another opportunity to grow in Christ. When we think about gold, we have 9, 14, 18, 22 and 24. To get 24 Carat gold the gold goes through a higher intensity of heat and because of this it has greater value than all the others. That is how we are formed when we go through trials and tribulations in life. God uses it as an opportunity to remold us, to refine us some more into becoming who He wants us to be. And He is with us through our difficult period to the other side where he gives us victory, where we overcome those hurdles and we find ourselves looking back at those challenges and laughing that God brought us out unscathed and not only that, we’ve come through stronger in our faith and resolve that indeed God is our Lord who never leaves us nor forsakes us. You will come out the other side of more value just like 24 Carat gold. Is 43:2
