Nugget of Wisdom for Women | September 10, 2015: "Nugget of Wisdom for Women



OFTENTIMES, WE GET GRUMPY when negative things happen. But, God uses ALL things (even the bad, annoying, inconvenient, disappointing, difficult, and tragic things in our life) for our good … and the good of others. –

HERE’S A PERFECT REAL-LIFE EXAMPLE:

A Christian named Mike Powers was already having a not-so-good day, then he got stopped by a Mississippi Highway Patrol Trooper (Jason Ales). AFTER Trooper Ales handed Mike a speeding ticket, Mike felt the need to ask about the trooper's day (because of the recent killings of police officers). Trooper Ales shared that his job was becoming increasingly tough, but he was committed to serving the community. – MIKE THEN GAVE Trooper Ales a wooden prayer bracelet. The trooper was moved by the gesture, and was almost brought to tears.

TROOPER ALES STATED: “I gave this man a ticket ... worth two hundred something dollars, but still out of his kindness, he wanted to give me something. With the stuff that’s going on with officers, that right there was so positive. – I needed that.”

The wooden bracelet is now hanging in Trooper Ales’ patrol car. Let’s always remember that God uses every experience for our good … and the good of others.

Ephesians 4:32 instructs, “Be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God in Christ forgave you”
(New King James Version).
