Examples of spiritual wisdom and revelation
We can’t earn God’s love; we don’t deserve it; He just gives it. The trials we face will always be for our good and God’s glory. God gave us His Word, His Spirit, and His people to help us live a good, godly, purpose-filled, impacting and satisfying life.

Next Steps Accept the fact that it will take hard work to grow closer to God – to know Him better and better. Pray this prayer – for you and others. Seek wisdom and revelation from God’s Word, God’s Spirit, and God’s people.
