Contrary to popular theology, Christianity does not make us immune to the vicissitudes and sufferings so common to this life It does, however, empower us to live with meaning even in the midst of adversity. The real miracle of Christianity is that God redeems the worst life throws at us, using it to contribute to our ultimate Christlikeness.

“…I have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation…”

Lord Jesus, teach us to trust You no matter how severe the storm. May we always find Your grace sufficient. In Your holy name we pray. Amen.
