Good Reminder

I know we all preach and teach this, but I know I sometimes have a more difficult time making application of the truth to my own life. I have found, though, that the people in my church who have helped me grow the most in the Lord are those with whom I don’t have a natural affinity or with whom I have had conflict. My faith in the Lord has also grown more by grappling with and accepting answers to my prayers that have disappointed rather than delighted.
