Day 3: Faith Refined by Fire
Reading: 1 Peter 4:12-19, James 1:2-4
Devotional: Peter, who experienced both failure and restoration, teaches us about the refining nature of trials. Our faith, more precious than gold, is purified through difficulties. James echoes this, encouraging us to view trials as opportunities for growth. Reflect on a recent or current challenge in your life. How might God be using this to strengthen your faith? Remember, the goal isn't just to endure, but to allow these experiences to shape us more into Christ's image. Ask God for the strength to not just survive your trials, but to grow through them, knowing that He is with you in the fire.
