Good Friday @ SBC

The Power of Testing in Faith Despite our best intentions, life often throws us curveballs that test our limits and challenge our faith. The Bible reminds us in Luke 22 that even Jesus' closest followers faced moments of doubt and weakness. Peter's denial of Christ, for instance, is a sobering reminder that our own pride and fear can lead us astray. Yet, Jesus' love and forgiveness never wavered, and he prayed for Peter's faith to be strengthened through testing. Similarly, the sifting of wheat separates the essential from the chaff, refining our faith and removing impurities. Trials may be difficult, but they can also bring about growth, maturity, and a deeper connection with God. Like the disciples, we may not always understand the reasons for our challenges, but we can trust that God is working in them for our good. He uses testing as a catalyst for renewal, equipping us to support others who are also facing adversity. As we navigate the ups and downs of life, let us remember the example of Jesus and Peter. Let us lean into God's grace, surrender our pride, and embrace the transformative power of testing. For it is through these trials that our faith is purified and our hearts are drawn closer to our Savior.
