But grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To Him be glory both now and forever! Amen. (2 Peter 3:18)
The mark of a Christian who is growing and maturing in faith is one who is always increasing their praise level.
The more knowledge we have of Him,
the more we realize the grace He’s lavished on us,
the more glory we should be giving Him…
now AND forever!
Amen.

Trials
Christianity is drawing on the overflowing favor of God in the second of trial.
From Facing Reality
So you see, the Lord knows how to rescue godly people from their trials. (2 Peter 2:9)
Anyone who meets a testing challenge head-on and manages to stick it out is mighty fortunate. For such persons loyally in love with God, the reward is life and more life. (James 1:12)
In the moment of your trial, God is right there in the thick of it with you. He will bring you through. Draw on God’s overflowing favor and hang in there!
