My Twitterbot – @votd – sent this verse out today -
- and when I saw it it gave me a bit of a nudge. The reason I endure certain problems is so that I am forced to call upon the Lord for help. Backed into a corner, I can’t solve the problem myself, so I pray upwards.
This Scripture passage is saying that we will be delivered from those problems specifically so that we can glorify God. A neat reminder.

It’s amazing how God is able to take every circumstance and redeem it. When we create problems for ourselves, or when problems happen to us, God can be glorified even through those trials. Nothing goes to waste in God’s economy.
