God’s Grace—two mighty and powerful words. These two words cover our mistakes and shortcomings. They give us hope to look beyond life’s disappointments. Adversity is a bridge to a deeper relationship with God. God does not glory in our pains or sorrow, but He does use our experiences to teach us about His love and faithfulness. God knows the future. He uses our shortcomings to strengthen our faith, refine our actions, and settle our hearts into a place of contentment and trust. God has promised that His grace is sufficient, and He will walk with us through the valley times of life. — 2 Corinthians 12:9
