Preserved & Resilient: I am forever grateful to God for the gift of salvation and all that my life has become. God's mercies endures forever(Psalm 136:1-26).

[James Puti @JamesPuti]

To be broken is painful, it is humiliating, but it is the only way to meekness. The more we are broken by God's dealings, the meeker we become. To see true meekness is to behold inner brokenness.

God in His wisdom engineers our exchange from carnal kernel Christians to fruitful fellowshipping disciples. From an infinite number of ways, He chooses the most efdective for each individuals transition. And in the handa of the Husbandman, there is no fear, but freedom.

Settle this matter for once and for all in your heart. God is not unhappy with you. He is so pleased and happy with you. God is not against you. He is for you. It's all about LOVE.

[James Puti @JamesPuti]

God schemes and excutes His plans perfectictely. He is God, and it's all about LOVE.

Your cross experience will show or be proportional to God’s demands and assignments for you. This cross in question here is where the flesh is traded to please God in death. For which many have rejected, evidently showing their lack of desire or passion for God.

If spiritual power is what you desire, you must die on your own cross. Until then, the resurrection power of God cannot flow through you.

The Price to be initiated into the fulness of God’s presence is a personal ordeal no one, no matter how close or how much they love you can pay for you.

[James Puti @JamesPuti]

NIV, Psalms 66:10-11

[James Puti @JamesPuti]

NIV, 1 Peter 1:18-19
For you know that it was not with perishable things such as silver or gold that you were redeemed from the empty way of life handed down to you from your ancestors, but with the precious blood of Christ, a lamb without blemish or defect.

[James Puti @JamesPuti]

NIV, 1 Peter 1:7
These have come so that the proven genuineness of your faith —of greater worth than gold, which perishes even though refined by fire —may result in praise, glory and honor when Jesus Christ is revealed.

[James Puti @JamesPuti]

NIV, 1 Peter 1:6
In all this you greatly rejoice, though now for a little while you may have had to suffer grief in all kinds of trials.

[James Puti @JamesPuti]

God often takes liberty afterwards to humble men more, when He has enabled them better to bear it, than their first entrance into religion. For Christians many times meet with greater trial after their conversion than ever they thought on.

- Richard Sibbes, "The Souls Conflict"

[James Puti @JamesPuti]

Christian trials are deeper after a sight and feeling of God's love than was before. God is a free agent, and knows every man's several mould, and the several services He is to use them in.

[James Puti @JamesPuti]

Strong people are not born into strength; they are shaped, tempered, and forged by the storms they weather.

Don’t forget about your past. The times when you thought you wouldn’t make it, but you did. The times when you thought you would die, but you didn’t. Remember the times of God’s kindness, love and faithfulness. TRUE!
