Thankfulness In The Hardship
“When I thank God, even for difficult situations, my focus is turned to God, who must intervene and help in order to resolve it, rather than on my limited resources. Oh, I’m not necessarily thankful about the hardship, but in the hardship. I know that God will somehow use this for my good, that God will develop needed character in my life, or that God will develop in me a more compassionate ministry, among other reasons.”
John Wimber, Prayer: Intimate Communication (Anaheim: Vineyard Ministries International, 1997), 19-20.
