As followers of Jesus Christ, God is always watching us and watching out for us . I have found that sometimes God sets up circumstances just to see how we will respond. Will we turn from the Lord or will we worship Him? People around us will always have an opinion. Some of these people will be true friends who try to help. Remember, God is watching them as well. I also have found that as Christians, we will find ourselves at times on both sides. When lifes trials and afflictions hit us, we may feel like Job, and all we can really do is to continue to trust the Lord, you know to cry out to Him and to worship Him through it all. When we are watching a friend go through a difficult trial, then we must pray for the wisdom on how to help them. Remember, it is not our first goal or place to give them our personal counsel or guidance. Our primary role, as their friend, is to intercede in prayer for them and to help them in the ways that God is leading us to help them. Keep in mind we need to remember that God is watching how we will respond in both situations. We must trust the Lord, seek His counsel, and wait upon Him. For in the end, God is the only One who can truly restore us. SELAH!
