“All is beauty and order to God. Aye and so here will I make my stand. When our enemy prevails against us-as he has done, aye, and will do again- Christ is mine. When I or mine are brought to the wheel, the rack, the gallows, Christ is mine. If he destroys, Christ is mine. If he slay me, Christ is mine. If he cast me into hell, I would shout down the very shrieking of the devil: ‘Christ is mine!’ I’d cry, ‘Christ died for me!’ Aye, and even if Christ should hide his face and frown upon me, it is Christ, and it is good, for Christ is mine!”
~Rebel’s Keep
Trials and suffering will harden some just like breakable clay, baking in bitterness and resentment. The same circumstances can melt others, teaching them patience and endurance...
The trials have no value or intrinsic meaning in themselves. It's the way we respond to those trials that makes all the difference." (J. E. Tada)
