Subject: Finding Hope in Times of Trials - Part 4
We thrive in faith and give thanks on this Thursday!
Good Morning Blessed & Encouraged Family!
We are overjoyed to join you once again as we continue our dive into the profound theme of finding hope in times of trials. Today, we will explore the life of the apostle Paul and the extraordinary perspective he possessed when facing persecution. Paul's unwavering faith and his ability to rejoice in the midst of trials provide us with invaluable lessons on finding hope even in the face of adversity. Let us uncover the power of rejoicing in persecution and discover the strength that comes from trusting in God's grace.
Today’s message comes from 2 Corinthians 12:9: "Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may rest on me."

Heavenly Father,
We seek Your wisdom and strength in times of trials. Grant us courage and gratitude, even in persecution. May our response be a testimony of Your transformative power, drawing others to find hope in You.
Unite our community and empower us to support one another. Shift our perspectives, cultivate gratitude, and share our testimonies. Let our rejoicing in persecution be a beacon of hope.
Hear our prayer requests, intervene in the lives of those in need. Surround them with Your love and peace, granting them strength and comfort. We thank You for the power of prayer and our supportive community.
In Jesus' name, we pray,
Amen.
