No Matter How Difficult….!
Posted by Scott on July 26, 2008
“Christian, no matter how difficult it is for you to bear it, yet the corruptions of your heart (that are not yet crucified) the pride, the selfishness, the impatience, the unfaithfulness, the love of the world….(all of which remain to some degree in the best of Christians) require all trials, afflictions, sicknesses and problems that God (in His kindness) can throw at us.
Such weeds as those that grow in the heart require a ‘hard frost to rot them’!! The ’straying bull needs a heavy clog’!! In the same way, the Christian whom God will keep within His commands and within His place of blessing and service needs afflictions.” -John Flavel
