Making Sense of a Horrible, No-Good, Really Bad Day
June 18, 2017 • Pastor Segun "Shegz" Aiyegbusi • James 1:2–8
In John 16:33, Jesus says, “…Here on earth you will have many trials and sorrows. But take heart, because I have overcome the world.” What I wish he had said was, “…Here on earth you will have many trials and sorrows. But take heart, [I gotchu! Nothing bad will ever happen, and if one trial manages to slip through, I’ll be Johnny-on-the-spot to get you out of it!]” But that’s NOT what He says, right? Instead, He simply reassures His followers that in spite of the inevitable hardships they would face, He was sovereignly in control of all human and spiritual affairs in the world. So what are you and I to do on those inevitable horrible, no-good, really bad seasons of our lives where it seems and feels like life has released its own version of the Kraken on us? Find out!
