“Now it came to pass after these things that God tested Abraham, and said to him, “Abraham!”  And he said, ‘Here I am.’ ”  Genesis 22:1

Even if we aren’t in school, tests continue.

Thank You, Lord, for Your tests which help us learn and grow. And here’s a simple poem . . .

God tests
His children

and provides
for them too

the answers
in Jesus

Who always
comes through.

God bless you as He provides the answers today!

Coming Forth As Gold

“But He knows the way that I take’
When He has tested me, I shall come forth as gold.”  Job 23:10

Once I sent in some gold jewelry for cash, but the recompense was so small, I asked for it back.

Lord, we trust You and believe that we shall come forth from each of our tests, rich in testimonies for Your glory.  And here’s a simple poem . . .

Truly Treasured

Today’s refiners gather
paying us a small price

for what once had value
as memorable gifts in life

while God takes true treasure
our hearts, minds and souls

refining them by His Spirit
until we come forth as gold.
