"God is sovereignly in control. He allows trials for on purpose: to move us from the point where we are currently to the point where He wants us to be. He is growing us into people who are tender and compassionate, but have spirits of iron and steel - people whose faith is rock solid. When we've closed down the business, when we've struggled with an unwanted divorce or when we've gone through children running away or leaving the faith -when we've experienced trials of any magnitude - with some distance and reflection, we soon realize that God has redeemed our experience, and that we are stronger than we have ever been in our walk with the Lord. No one can take that away."
