“My
brethren, count it all joy when you fall into various trials, knowing
that the testing of your faith produces patience.
James
1:2-4

“When
life gives you lemons, make lemonade.” A familiar old saying
that seems to be
such a worn cliché, especially if someone quotes it to us
when we are in a great dilemma in
our life. Health situations, loss of jobs or something traumatic happening
with
our family members places such a strain on our lives that we
develop blinders and
we
feel like we are
unable to make lemonade out of or change the situation. However, God
does give
us the strength to deal with and handle even the most trying of
circumstances.
We may not be able to stop the lemons from falling or make something
better of
a situation, but by claiming God’s promises we can be
determined to better the
way in which we handle those 'lemons'. This retreat will inspire you through music, message and the exploration of God’s Word as we discover ways we can count it all joy when we fall into various trials. |
