Rabbi Moshe Goldberger writes, “{Our Creator} created oysters with the capacity to transform an irritating piece of sand into a pearl. This serves as a model for us — every trial contains precious jewels which we can find and develop.”
1 Peter 4:12-13 (ESV)
12 Beloved, do not be surprised at the fiery trial when it comes upon you to test you, as though something strange were happening to you.
Look at it as an opportunity for transformation. Look at it as an opportunity to be Jesus with skin on.
13 But rejoice in so far as you share Christ’s sufferings, that you may also rejoice and be glad when his glory is revealed.
Friends, family, They all watch you as Walk this life out, they watch you even closer when you’re going through a trial.
I think many times they yearn for your authenticity
Be real today You never know who needs it, your authenticity.
Be Jesus with skin on.
Go with God!
Matthew 6.6
