“We should not shrink from opportunities where our faith may be tried. The more I am in a position to be tried in faith, the more I will have the opportunity of seeing God’s help and deliverance. Every fresh instance in which He helps and delivers me will increase my faith. The believer should not shrink from situations, positions, or circumstances in which his faith may be tried, but he should cheerfully embrace them as opportunities to see the hand of God stretched out in help and deliverance. Thus his faith will be strengthened.” ShouldMayHelpingHandsOpportunitySituationSeeingPositionCircumstancesIncreaseEmbraceBelieverInstanceShrinksDeliveranceHands Of God Author:George Muller

“I'm a strong believer that you have to have an equal opportunity to fail and to try things that are hard. I always tell my students, "Don't just take things that are easy for you. If you're really good at math, don't take just math. Take classes that make you write. If you're a really great writer, but bad at math, take math and make yourself work your way through it."” IfsWayWritingTryingHardOpportunityStrongEasyClassFailingStudentsEqualMathBelieverReally GreatGreat WritersEqual OpportunityThings That Are Hard Author:Condoleezza Rice
“Take away material prosperity; take away emotional highs; take away miracles and healing; take away fellowship with other believers; take away church; take away all opportunity for service; take away assurance of salvation; take away the peace and joy of the Holy Spirit... Yes! Take it all, all, far, far away. And what is left? Tragically, for many believers there would be nothing left. For does our faith really go that deep? Or do we, in the final analysis, have a cross-less Christianity?” DoeWould BeJoySpiritFaithOpportunityLeftChurchReligiousHealingChristianityEmotionalMaterialsHolyCrossesMiracleSalvationFinalsProsperityBelieverAnalysisHoly SpiritFar AwayAssuranceFellowshipPeace And JoyAssurance Of Salvation Author:Mike Mason
