Blessing through Suffering by Dr Kim

Dr Kim and her students were at the beach to relax one fine day.
They make a stopover at the breakwater to take some photos.
It was a beautiful sight, the sun, the sand and the sea.
"1, 2" before the cameraman would say "3". A  huge wave surge above the breakwater
and engulf Dr Kim and her students. They were drench head to toes.
It was unexpected! The group's hand phones and camera got soaked!
Like the unexpected wave, life is unpredictable.

Life is filled with trials and testings.

You can achieve blessing through suffering through these 4 ways:

1. Overcome the devil's temptation with GOD - Matt 4:1-25
Do not be blinded in your ways and fall for temptation. Stand firm!
Shout "Away from me ____________________" loud when you are challenge.


2.Pray when you are faced with trials. John 15:5

Overcome situation by the blood of Jesus through prayers.
God provides a way out 1 Cor 10:13

Dr Kim shares about her Mum who passed away 20 years ago. Her Mum had a good
voice and she sang in the neighbor hood. In 1958, they had no TV or radio. The songs were
their source of entertainment. Dr Kim's mum when around singing and brought around candy and biscuits.
There was not enough to go around. Dr Kim's mum had to bite the candy and break it into smaller pieces for
all the little one to have a tiny piece. Those were the days of poverty and GOD provided a way out through their situation.

 3.Upgrade yourself through trials Roman 15:13

You need to sit for a test in order to receive your driving license.
With regards to Filament , the stronger the resistance the brighter the light.

4. Obey and rely on GOD Jeremiah 42:6



Favorable or Unfavorable obey and lean  on GOD, Det 28:1-6


As Dr Kim shared this message on Mother' day, she herself is undergoing
some trials. Who does not ? Stay strong.
