“for you know that the testing of your faith produces steadfastness” (James 1:3).
This current struggle that you are facing has your deliverance wrapped up in it. God will use this process to expose your weakness in order to bring you healing. Yes, it’s all working together for his glory and he will help you to handle it.
God gives us strength to overcome temptation. The acknowledgement of our frailty and limitations, allows God’s strength to work in us to make us complete and strong in him. We possess a much greater strength than we think and the testing of our faith develops patience. “But let patience have her perfect work, that ye may be perfect and mature and complete, lacking nothing” (James 1:3-4).
Through Christ we can do all things and his strength made perfect in or weakness produces righteousness. Our help comes from the Lord and we find peace in his presence. When we wait on him he gives us strength to endure. I will wait on him for from him comes my salvation. My help comes from the Lord and struggles along with his strength produces maturity. God is with you in this test and he is strengthening you. Hold on to him and let him work in you to overcome. He will help you to endure it.
“I can do all things through him who strengthens me” (Philippians 4:13).
I am a trained Social Worker who currently provides professional leadership on a programme to support Social Work students and Newly Qualified Social Workers entering the Social Work Profession.
Born and raised in Jamaica in a Christian family where my father is an ordained Pastor and Deacon who has served for over 50 years in the ministry. My father is also a trained musician and our family can be described as a musical family. I grew up in a small farming community in St. Peter’s, St. Andrew and my parents also have a small farm.
I credit my gift of writing to my father who I watched and listened to over the years as he wrote sermons, poems and other recitals in his capacity in ministry. English has always been an easy subject for me and over the years I have developed an increased interest in writing.
I am a Trainer, I sing and have a passion for worship, the spoken word and the free flow of the prophetic anointing. I am married to my best friend Andrew Christopher Young who is an advanced Musician and whose music you can find on YouTube and Facebook. I am a trained Coach and Mentor and I love experimenting with food so I love cooking. I enjoy trying cultural dishes from across the world and I view food as an entry into cultures and languages.
