When Your Trial (Pain) Comes, What is Your Glory?
Everyone, sooner or latter will go through pain, suffering, confusion and grief. Everyone. How will you react in your trial? Will you be angry, afraid, sad, in denial.......or glad? This mornings read of Samuel Rutherford was a eye opener for me.

In prison, sick and hungry Rutherford writes, on July of 1637:

'Down with me; down, down with all the excellency of the world; and up, up with Christ! Long, long may that fair One, that holy One, be on high! O how glad would I be if His glory would grow out and spring up out of my bonds and suffering! Since I became His prisoner, he hath won the yolk and heart of my soul. Christ has even become a new Christ to me. His love is greener than it was.'
