Our troubles are aimed to make us doubt God. The enemy would like to destroy us. And the Lord said, Simon, Simon, behold, Satan hath desired to have you, that he may sift you as wheat: But I have prayed for thee, that thy faith fail not: and when thou art converted, strengthen thy brethren.  Luke 22:31-32   When the battle gets tough we need to prepare for a fight. Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.  Ephesians 6:11   The Parable of the seed even talks about the devil stealing the Word from our heart, making us doubt God's love. Those by the way side are they that hear; then cometh the devil, and taketh away the word out of their hearts, lest they should believe and be saved.  Luke 8:12   God is not waiting to punish us for wrong, He wants to comfort us with His love. The LORD hath appeared of old unto me, saying, Yea, I have loved thee with an everlasting love: therefore with lovingkindness have I drawn thee.  Jeremiah 31:3         Send this card to a friend     Card Index
