Our accountability to God
Kat:
Hi George, I can only imagine how difficult things must be for some elect... we hear many things here at the forum that people are going through that sound really hard.
I have to trust that God is working something through the difficult and prolong periods that He wants those people to know and understand. I can't help but think the harder the trial that God is using in teaching/preparing His elect then they are gaining the more from it. After all the body has many different parts, to serve many different purposes.
1Co 12:17 If the whole body were an eye, where would be the hearing? If the whole were hearing, where would be the smelling?
v. 18 But now God has set the members, each one of them, in the body just as He pleased.
v. 19 And if they were all one member, where would the body be?
v. 20 But now indeed there are many members, yet one body.
v. 21 And the eye cannot say to the hand, “I have no need of you”; nor again the head to the feet, “I have no need of you.”
v. 22 No, much rather, those members of the body which seem to be weaker are necessary.
v. 23 And those members of the body which we think to be less honorable, on these we bestow greater honor; and our unpresentable parts have greater modesty,
v. 24 but our presentable parts have no need. But God composed the body, having given greater honor to that part which lacks it,
v. 25 that there should be no schism in the body, but that the members should have the same care for one another.
mercy, peace and love

I know you have heard it before Isa 40:31 But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength;..... still I pray every day…. Psa 94:3 LORD, how long shall the wicked, how long shall the wicked triumph?
Waiting, takes more power than doing, but the expectation of what He is going to do is, for me is worth the wait.

Very much worth the wait dear brother!
Rom 8:14 For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.
Rom 8:15 For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but ye have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father.
Rom 8:16 The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God:
Rom 8:17 And if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; if so be that we suffer with him, that we may be also glorified together.
Rom 8:18 For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us.
Gal 4:6 And because ye are sons, God hath sent forth the Spirit of his Son into your hearts, crying, Abba, Father.
Gal 4:7 Wherefore thou art no more a servant, but a son; and if a son, then an heir of God through Christ.
1Co 2:6 Howbeit we speak wisdom among them that are perfect: yet not the wisdom of this world, nor of the princes of this world, that come to nought:
1Co 2:7 But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, even the hidden wisdom, which God ordained before the world unto our glory:
1Co 2:8 Which none of the princes of this world knew: for had they known it, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory.
1Co 2:9 But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him.
1Co 2:10 But God hath revealed them unto us by his Spirit: for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God.
1Co 2:11 For what man knoweth the things of a man, save the spirit of man which is in him? even so the things of God knoweth no man, but the Spirit of God.
1Co 2:12 Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God.
