Focal Point Weekly Devotional
Start your week of with this 1 minute devotional from Pastor Mike Fabarez of Focal Point Radio Ministries.
Guest (Male): Here’s Mike Fabarez, Bible teacher on Focal Point.
Mike Fabarez: James in the Bible tells us we’ve got to count it all joy when we meet various trials. That command seems almost impossible, but we can start by making the distinction that counting it joy is not the same as enjoying the painful things in our lives.
Joy is much more profound than just feeling good. Joy in this case has to do with us accepting our present circumstances as something that were sovereignly designed by God. It’s understanding that God is accomplishing something good and constructive through our trials.
When we realize that difficult seasons reveal the authenticity, the reality of our connection with the living God, that’s something we can be glad about. Our trials will never feel good, but they can lead to a joyful outlook.
